Finding Purpose & The Reality of Plant Medicine with Jordan Foster

n this episode, we sit down with Jordan Foster, the Style Director behind Favorite Daughter, to pull back the curtain on balancing a high-profile fashion career with an intensive, lifelong relationship with "the woo." While Jordan is a master at crafting impeccable aesthetics, this conversation navigates the deeper, often messy healing that happens off-camera. We unpack her journey with plant medicine—and why the trend of "journeying" is only half the battle—discussing the critical importance of long-term integration, somatic therapy, and building true safety within the nervous system. We also get real about the intersection of motherhood and high sensitivity, exploring the challenges of parenting "deeply feeling" children while navigating her own triggers and the ongoing process of "firing herself" from professional obligations that no longer align with her soul. And, because we couldn't let her leave without an answer, we finally settle the family mystery: who is the actual favorite daughter? If you've ever felt like career success felt empty, or if you're a "sensitive" trying to navigate the noise of modern life, this episode is a reminder that the most important work isn't what we show the world—it's what we do to build a home inside ourselves.

In fact, tween and teen boys want connection, meaning, and care; they might just show it in different ways.
