    Blast from the Past! Episode from 2009.

    Have you ever walked into a space feeling immediately judged, your personal journey dismissed before you even shared your story? Demetria Clark, herbalist extraordinaire and the heart behind Heart of Herbs Herbal School, joins us to unpack the sensitive dynamics between herbalists and clients. She advocates for a practice steeped in empathy and acceptance, where the focus is on personalized care rather than pushing products. Throughout the episode, Demetria shares stories from her own experiences, emphasizing the importance of acknowledging each client's unique path and the profound impact that feeling understood can have on their health and wellness.

    Navigating the delicate dance of professional boundaries in holistic practices is no easy feat. As practitioners, how do we balance the personal and the professional, especially when the lines threaten to blur? Demetria addresses this head-on, revealing her own struggles and triumphs in maintaining effective and ethical relationships with clients. She doesn't shy away from the tough topics, discussing how to handle family requests for advice without compromising professional integrity and the importance of carving out personal sanctuary when your practice is based at home.

    Money matters can be messy, but they're a crucial part of any professional practice. Demetria gets real about the nuts and bolts of setting a professional fee structure, sharing her journey from sliding scale payments to establishing a value for her services that truly reflects her expertise and the hidden costs of her work. For fellow herbalists and health practitioners, this episode promises a treasure trove of insights into valuing your services confidently and fairly. And for her students, Demetria offers a rallying cry of support, inspiring a vision of a community that stands strong together, nurturing growth and potential in the field of herbalism.
