Hi Reader,
I hope this email finds you well and thriving! Last month I helped coordinate a local homesteading faire for our community. It was an amazing experience to say the least! We had so many amazing local vendors in the homesteading niche that were able to offer valuable education, products, and create deeper ties within our community.
I have also been very busy behind the scenes of Pioneer Health developing new educational posts and even video tutorials!
Offering New Education!
I know that many people, including myself, learn best visually. Not just reading on a blog post and seeing how it can be done, but watching video tutorials and seeing the full process. This is why I have restarted my YouTube channel and have been busy adding many of my very own recipes just for you!
What Else is Planned?
- Natural Living Series: I've been working on a Natural Living Series to help others dive into this world with a mentor. I am very passionate about everyone making steps to become more natural in our lifestyles. The first 3 videos go over how I started natural living, what is natural living, and some easy basic swaps you can make now!
- More Herbalism Education: I may have my bachelors in nursing, but I could never shake the desire to return to school to pursue becoming a registered herbalist. So that is exactly what I have been up to! I returned to school this past month and am soaking it all in. I can't believe I waited this long! I plan to take you along for the ride as well!
Make sure to subscribe to my YouTube channel if you haven't aready so you don't miss any upcoming videos!
