Welcome back to The Plant Healer's Path — Episode 23. In this thoughtful episode, Jesse Wolf Hardin reflects on what it means to be of service as a plant healer — and why generosity, care, and contribution sit at the heart of folk herbalism. Wolf explores the motivations that draw people to herbal work, alongside the realities of sustainability and livelihood. He shares practical ways herbalists and herbal businesses can serve their communities, including sliding scales, deferred payments, bartering, volunteer work, scholarships, donations, and profit-sharing with aligned causes. This episode offers a clear reminder that service is a conscious, intentional act — one that supports access, strengthens community, and honors the reciprocal relationship between people, plants, and land.

Welcome back to The Plant Healer's Path — Episode 22. In this powerful and wide-ranging episode, Jesse Wolf Hardin speaks directly to the moment we're living in — a time of immense challenge, ecological strain, cultural pressure, and profound possibility. Wolf reflects on the crossroads facing herbalists, healers, and culture-shifters of all kinds, exploring how fear, grief, and uncertainty can become sources of clarity, motivation, and purposeful action. Rather than retreating into resignation or victimhood, we're invited to deepen our awareness, sharpen our senses, and remember our place within the living world. This episode weaves together themes of herbal access, plant protection, self-worth, intuition, responsibility, and celebration — reminding us that even in difficult times, it remains possible to cultivate meaning, connection, and joy. Herbalism is framed not only as medicine, but as a vital skill for self-care, community resilience, and cultural renewal. A stirring reflection on empowered folk herbalism, embodied awareness, and the wild responsibility of living fully — even when the stakes are high. This audio was extracted from the beautiful video version available on the HerbRally YouTube channel. This episode is brought to you by The Good Medicine Confluence October 12–15, 2026 Ghost Ranch, New Mexico Join herbalists, healers, wildcrafters, visionaries, misfits, and medicine makers for four unforgettable days of learning, celebration, connection, ritual, and more than 100 classes from over 40 teachers.

Medieval Europe was preoccupied with magic. From the Carolingian Empire to Renaissance Italy and Tudor England, great rulers, religious figures, and scholars sought to harness supernatural power. They tried to summon spirits, predict the future, and even prolong life. Alongside science and religion, magic lay at the very heart of culture. In this beautifully illustrated account The Magic Books: A History of Enchantment in 20 Medieval Manuscripts (Yale UP, 2025), Anne Lawrence-Mathers explores the medieval fascination with magic through twenty extraordinary illuminated manuscripts. These books were highly sought after, commissioned by kings and stored in great libraries. They include an astronomical compendium made for Charlemagne's son; The Sworn Book of Honorius, used by a secret society of trained magicians; and the highly influential Picatrix. This vivid new history shows how attitudes to magic and science changed over the medieval period—and produced great works of art as they did so. Anne Lawrence-Mathers is professor of history at University of Reading. She is the author of Medieval Meteorology and The True History of Merlin the Magician and coauthor of Magic and Medieval Society. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand.

Medieval Europe was preoccupied with magic. From the Carolingian Empire to Renaissance Italy and Tudor England, great rulers, religious figures, and scholars sought to harness supernatural power. They tried to summon spirits, predict the future, and even prolong life. Alongside science and religion, magic lay at the very heart of culture.

Welcome back to The Plant Healer's Path — Episode 21. In this reflective episode, Jesse Wolf Hardin explores the idea that among all the plants we cherish, there may be one green ally whose presence, timing, symbolism, or healing effect plays a uniquely meaningful role in our lives. Wolf shares how a personal plant may appear during transition, heartbreak, celebration, or illness — offering medicine, emotional clarity, inspiration, or companionship. A plant ally might be one we've known for years but only now truly hear, or an unexpected species that arrives precisely when needed. We're invited to slow down, notice the plants around us, feel their resonance, and recognize the qualities, stories, and teachings they bring. Once we identify our plant, we can turn to it for grounding, guidance, and everyday support. A beautiful meditation on intuition, plant relationship, and the lifelong path of learning from nature.

EPISODE 645 - Anthony Dyer - Moon Child - Roots and Wings of a USAF Combat Special MissionsANTHONY DYER grew up in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains, where adventure and resilience were woven into his very being. That same spirit of fearlessness carried him into a life of service, leading to an extraordinary career in Special Operations Aviation as a USAF Combat Special Missions Aviator. Over the course of more than a decade, Anthony flew into some of the most dangerous and unpredictable environments on the planet, executing high-risk missions that demanded precision, courage, and an unbreakable will.His exceptional skill and unwavering commitment to his team earned him numerous accolades, including the Air Force's Jolly Green Rescue Mission of the Year award in 2018 for his role in a daring, life-saving operation. Throughout his career, he witnessed both the triumphs and the burdens of combat, experiencing firsthand the weight that warriors carry long after the missions end.When he's not writing or speaking on behalf of those who have walked a similar path, Anthony finds solace in fishing, basketball, and the simple joys of family life. Above all, he is a devoted father and husband, embracing the adventure of parenthood with the same passion and intensity that defined his military career. Now residing in New Mexico, the Land of Enchantment, Anthony continues his journey—one that is no longer defined by combatBook - Moon Child: The Roots and Wings of a USAF Combat Special Missions AviatorBorn in the rugged Appalachian town of Sylva, North Carolina, Anthony Dyer was raised in a world of untamed adventure, where resilience was a way of life. That same fearless spirit propelled him into the elite realm of Special Operations Aviation, where he spent over a decade as a USAF Combat Special Missions Aviator, flying into the world's most volatile war zones. Tasked with executing high-risk missions under relentless pressure, Anthony's career was defined by precision, courage, and sacrifice. But what happens when the mission ends?In Moon Child, Anthony delivers a raw, unfiltered account of his life in combat-the triumphs, burdens, and unseen wounds that follow Warriors home. He shares the harrowing details of his most dangerous operations, including the 2018 Jolly Green Rescue Mission of the Year, where split-second decisions meant the difference between life and death. Yet, beyond the battlefield, Anthony faced a far deadlier enemy: the silent battles of addiction, trauma, and the search for purpose beyond war.For those who have known war, for those who have battled addiction, and for those still finding their way-Moon Child is your story, too.https://www.traitmarkermedia.com/moonchildSupport the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

Welcome back to The Plant Healer's Path — Episode 20. In this episode, Jesse Wolf Hardin explores one of the deepest inner tensions faced by healers, activists, caregivers, and culture-shapers alike: the longing to create real, visible change — and the emotional weight of what we cannot control. Through poetic reflection and grounded wisdom, Wolf speaks to the outcome-oriented heart that lives inside so many of us — especially herbalists, healthcare providers, parents, justice workers, and environmental advocates. He explores our shared desire to relieve suffering, to fix what is broken, to bring about lasting cures and total solutions — and the quiet harm that can arise when we measure our worth solely by what we can "successfully" change. You'll hear why it's both beautiful and perilous to carry the world's pain on our shoulders, how unrealistic expectations can quietly drain our vitality, and why a truly sustainable healing practice depends on learning the difference between what we can influence and what we must release. Wolf offers a compassionate framework for shifting from impossible cures toward meaningful, tangible, day-to-day impact — without abandoning our deeper ideals. If you've ever felt discouraged by outcomes you couldn't control, burned out by constant striving, or torn between big visions and personal limits, this episode offers a powerful reminder: your small, steady, real-world efforts matter more than you may realize.

Welcome back to The Plant Healer's Path. In this episode, Jesse Wolf Hardin explores one of the most essential — yet often misunderstood — aspects of the plant healer's journey: finding and defining your true niche. Through poetic reflection, grounded teaching, and decades of lived experience, Wolf unpacks what it really means to discover your unique role within the larger healing field. From folk herbalists and family practitioners to growers, medicine makers, teachers, clinicians, and culture builders, he illuminates how each healer carries a distinct "individual medicine" — a signature blend of talents, interests, aesthetics, convictions, and calling. You'll hear why purpose needs form to fully manifest, how specialization isn't limitation but clarification, and why a well-defined niche becomes both your home base and your vantage point for serving the world. Wolf traces the word "niche" back to its Latin root meaning "nest," inviting you to consider how your own healing work is woven from the land, the people you serve, the methods you love, and the story you tell. If you've ever felt scattered, unsure where you truly fit, or called to refine your focus without losing your heart, this episode offers a powerful framework for aligning your gifts, your audience, your role, and your deeper purpose into a coherent, living practice.

Welcome back to The Plant Healer's Path. In this episode, Jesse Wolf Hardin invites you into a soulful, provocative, and deeply clarifying journey through 20 essential life questions — prompts designed to reorient you toward meaning, vitality, purpose, and the truth of who you are. Through story, metaphor, and grounded self-inquiry, Wolf explores what it really means to live deliberately: What would you do if this were your final year? What is worth your precious time, energy, devotion, and attention? What habits, obligations, or environments drain you — and which nourish your joy, creativity, and calling? Who matters most? What matters most? And what would it take to craft a life that feels wholly, unapologetically your own? If you've been craving reflection, renewal, direction, or simply a deeper connection to your authentic self, this episode serves as a powerful inner compass — a yardstick for living a life aligned with your values, your purpose, and your heart.

In this episode I sit down with writer, author, film producer and a man with what I feel has the best handle ever (Herd Bull), Mike Mitten. Mike is a bowhunter who has been bowhunting for over 50 years. Mikes shares his passionate bowhunting adventures through his books, his magazine articles, and his YouTube channel. From his 3-week solo trips in Alaska, to hunting big mature whitetail bucks on his home farm in the Midwest. This podcast has everything! and trust me when I say, we only begun to scratch the surface. This is one you don't want to miss.  

Max Gomez and I have only crossed paths in person one time when he opened for James McMurtry; I have been a fan of his work for some time and was very disappointed I had to miss his recent show in Kansas City.  We were able to have an on air radio conversation before that show and it was a real treat to hear stories of John Prine, Jack Barksdale, Hardly Strictly Bluegrass and others.  Also, how could you grow up in a magical place like Taos, New Mexico an not be inspiredto pursue art in some form?In the Land of Enchantment, he fell under the influence of country blues early on and developed a songwriting style that is uniquely his. He received critical acclaim upon the release of his debut album Rule The World (2013, New West Records); and his subsequent EP, Me and Joe (2017, Brigadoon Records),contained a freshly minted classic, “Make It Me,” which has gained million of listeners on Spotify alone.As a budding performer, Max apprenticed in the rarefied musical micro-climate of northern New Mexico, where troubadours like Michael Martin Murphey and Ray Wylie Hubbard helped foster a Western folk sound both cosmic and country. He has shared billing on hundreds of stages with stalwarts of the Americana/Roots genre like the aforementioned James McMurtry, Buddy Miller, John Hiatt, Patty Griffin,  and Jeff Beck, and Johnny Depp.  His latest record, Memory Mountain, is a must listen!  Enjoy this conversation with Max Gomez.Photo Credit: Blue Gabor

January 1692. Two girls wake up screaming with unexplained burns on their skin. Their bodies contort unnaturally. Doctors reach a chilling conclusion: they're "under an evil hand." What unfolds over the next nine months doesn't just claim 23 lives—it murders something far more profound: the Western world's faith in the supernatural itself.PhD candidate Brian Dedmon has discovered why Salem—out of hundreds of witch trials that killed far more people—became the one everyone remembers. The answer is chilling: Salem happened at the precise moment Western civilization was poised to abandon God. The timing was devastating. Nineteen souls hanged. One man crushed slowly beneath stacking stones, gasping his final words: "More weight."But here's the twist that changes everything: the guilty walked free while the innocent died. "Spectral evidence" allowed convictions based on dreams alone—no physical proof required. Wealthy families weaponized the hysteria to eliminate rivals. A minister quoted the Lord's Prayer perfectly at the gallows (something witches supposedly couldn't do) and was hanged anyway.By 1700, historians across every ideological spectrum agree: Western culture abandoned belief in the supernatural almost overnight. Salem became exhibit A that Christian faith breeds dangerous superstition. SThe real question facing us now: How do we reclaim biblical supernatural faith without triggering new witch hunts? How do we acknowledge spiritual warfare when most Christians treat it like embarrassing folklore? Salem's message echoes across three centuries: The church must remember what it lost after 1692—before what's coming makes us wish we had.

In the federal youth climate case Lighthiser v. Trump, plaintiffs are seeking immediate relief from three executive orders and subsequent actions of the Trump administration that boost fossil fuels. But the federal government maintains that the Lighthiser plaintiffs, like those in the prior case Juliana v. United States, lack standing. Also, the champion of Fat Bear Week 2025 is officially number 32 - “Chunk”, a big male who overcame a broken jaw to take the prize. Mike Fitz, the resident naturalist at explore.org, launched Fat Bear Week as a ranger at Katmai National Park in Alaska. He explains how this year's strong salmon run in the Brooks River helped the local grizzlies bulk up. And in lives full of screens and distraction, it can be hard to truly notice the natural world and the subtle ways that other creatures cross our paths. But author Brooke Williams believes these signs from nature can bring us important insights that are worth paying attention to. He explores these ideas in his book, Encountering Dragonfly: Notes on the Practice of Re-Enchantment. --- You can help support our free public radio show and podcast, for free, by leaving a review on Apple Podcasts.
