189. Herbalism Meets Fitness: Simplify Your Habits and Reconnect with Your Body ft. Rachelle Robinett

Have you ever wondered what herbalism actually is…or how it could realistically fit into your already-full life?

I’m excited to welcome Rachelle Robinett to the podcast and have a fresh, no-fluff conversation on herbalism, the original form of medicine!

Rachelle is an herbalist, educator, author, and a lifelong naturalist. Her new book, Naturally (which comes out July 2025), dives into nine core herbs and how they can support your body in ways you might not expect.

Whether it’s optimizing your fitness recovery, supporting liver detox, or just creating better habits for long-term health, herbalism offers tools that are deeply rooted in both nature AND science.

And no…you don’t have to overhaul your life or add more to your to-do list in order to see positive effects from herbalism!

Whether you’re a total newbie or a longtime wellness enthusiast, this episode will give you a deeper understanding of how herbalism can support your body, mind, and goals, regardless of where you are on your journey!
