I'm not subtle about my love for WishGarden Herbs - and this episode is basically me getting to talk shop with the woman behind the medicine, Dr. Erin Stokes. She's a naturopathic doctor, the Medical Director at WishGarden, and genuinely one of the most grounded, knowledgeable people I've had on the show. The kind of person who makes you feel like you've been doing wellness wrong and completely right at the same time.

We get into everything - how she thinks about plant-based healing, what actually makes an herbal formula worth taking, why most of what's on supplement shelves doesn't cut it, and what sets WishGarden apart in a market full of noise. We also talk about how she came to naturopathic medicine, what her own daily routine looks like, and why she believes herbs aren't a last resort - they're a first line of defense.

This is the kind of conversation that makes you want to overhaul your medicine cabinet, call your mom, and immediately place an order. Fair warning: you will leave this episode with a very full cart and zero regrets. WishGarden has been a staple in my home for a long time, and after this conversation, I love them even more.
