67 | Episode 67 | Ember Peters, Stascha Stahl & Vilde Chaya Fenster-Ehrlich on their Advanced Clinical Herbal Skills Program In the Clinic with Camille

    • Voeding

This week, I had the pleasure of interviewing Ember Peters, Stascha Stahl, and Vilde Chaya Fenster-Ehrlich about their upcoming Advanced Clinical Herbal Skills program [https://wildcurrentherbalism.com/programs/clinical-programs-advanced-clinical-skills-and-round-table-mentorship-january-march-2023-online].

The program looks awesome. I'd like to take it, and I probably would if my fall wasn't so chaotic. 

Whether you're interested in furthering your clinical skills or not, though, I encourage you to listen to the episode (or read the transcript linked below) for the discussion about what it takes to create spaces where healing is possible for people from oppressed and overlooked communities. 

It's more work than most of us realize when we're starting out as practitioners. 

We need to constantly examine/reexamine our own assumptions and practices in order to become better at the work we do.

It's hard to do this alone. Being part of programs and showing up in spaces where others are engaged in this type of work speeds up the process and makes it possible to see things in ways that weren't accessible to you before. 

Whether you join a program like this or not, I think listening to this conversation will serve as an important call to continue your growth as a person and as a practitioner. 

I left this conversation feeling inspired. I hope you do, too. 

Warmly,

Camille

About Ember Peters

Ember has been in clinical practice for a decade and has been teaching advanced herbalism for the past seven years. Their practice integrates vitalist Western herbalism traditions, scientific research, phytochemistry, pathophysiology and flower essences. They are particularly nerdy about diabetes, cancer, fertility autonomy, trans health, and hormonal/endocrine support. Trans-inclusivity and anti-racism are cornerstones of Ember's practice, a part of their life-long commitment to fighting for liberation for all peoples.

Stascha is a community centered clinical herbalist, medicine maker, apothecarist, and educator practicing in the Chochenyo Ohlone Territory so-called Oakland, California. Stascha has been studying herbal medicine since 2006 and seeing clients in free or sliding scale clinics for the last 12 years. She prioritizes harm reduction and focuses on complex chronic conditions.
