" I remember my transition into motherhood so vividly. It is a complete reset and rebirth. I studied and studied to prepare for the birth I wanted to have, but it never crossed my mind to prepare for a new me. During the roughest parts of my postpartum anxiety, I truly found my love and gratitude for plants. Herbal medicine helped me with nutrition, balancing my post-pregnancy hormones, supported my son’s intense bought with eczema and so much more. I became obsessed with natural remedies and realized so much of what our elders and ancestors taught us were rooted in plants and sustainability. I felt so full and was put on a beautiful path of self discovery and community care."
After giving birth to her first child in a new city, Taylor decided to create an online platform where she could be transparent about her experiences parenting and caring for her family with herbs while building an online village. After successfully supporting her son through his eczema battles with a handmade herbal infused oil- she was hooked on medicine making. The rest is HERstory!
