Herb Nerds with Alisa Pospekhova - a podcast by Guts N Glory
from 2020-04-19T10:02:44
Today we’re sitting down with Alisa Pospekhova, the International Marketing Director at Hourglass Cosmetics and founder of Kindroot, functional, adaptogenic plant lozenges.
All I can say is when you’ve found someone who’s also been held back at TSA for traveling with questionable adaptogenic and root powders, well you know you’ve crossed paths with a fellow herb nerd. This episode’s for those that have long been practicing herbalism and plant medicine as a means of service, to both themselves and their community.
As we step into this period in which the relationships between our states of being are put under even further scrutiny, we’re realizing that we are not well, and haven’t been for a very long time. We carry it in our postures, how we manage our time, connect with others, perceive others, the wider world, and generally the way in which we go about running ourselves into the ground. Our world only a reflection of this.
Obviously, this being said, the circumstances have left us feeling powerless, but that’s not to say we don’t hold influence when it comes to our well-being, educating ourselves, and seeing ourselves, thus acting, as a part of a greater community.
If we haven’t lost all sense of time, then this should serve as the perfect segway for the week to come. We spill the tea in this episode (do people still say that!? Gen Z here but my baby sister’s more tapped in than me). Herbs, plants, apprenticeships, international business and marketing, more herbs obviously, recipes, and all that Kindroot has brought forth since its founding. In questioning something, there’s initiative, through initiative there’s strength, and strength gives us the means to keep going. And I think that’s what a lot of us forget when there’s no end in sight but uncertainty, that the keep-going-part is the hardest thing. So here’s an episode that’ll hopefully provide a few practices you can employ, a few herbs you can lean on, and remind you that certainty does not make all decisions, nor does it call upon strength.
