I am the proud mama of three beautiful children. As a little girl, I was a Nature contemplative and brewer of magic potions in my great-grandmother’s garden. This curiosity about life led me to become a scientist and health researcher. My first pregnancy, in my late 20s, blessed me with a beautiful son. It also deepened my interest in holistic healing arts, notably traditional Chinese medicine. In my mid-thirties, the pregnancy with twins connected me to the miracle and mystery of life along with the reality of being a full-time working mom. After the twins were born, a beautiful son and daughter, I became a stay-at-home mom. It was a time to care for my family—an underestimated occupation—and to reignite my passion for the beauty of the natural world: herbal medicine, naturopathy, forest bathing, rituals and Indigenous wisdom teaching.
