Meet warrior, Kat Harrison. Kat is a fierce advocate and writer who lives with chronic, daily migraine, bilateral vestibular loss, oscillopsia, chronic ear disease and a rare headache condition called SUNCT Syndrome. Tune in as Kat shines a realistic light on the everyday decisions the chronically ill face. She'll also share how to increase accessibility and inclusion in the workplace, home and beyond. Kat is the community content producer at the Mighty and the author of the award-winning children's book Surgery on Sunday, the newly released children's book, Migraine and Mia and numerous articles for magazines such as Real Simple and digital outlets such as MSN. To learn more about Kat and her writing, go to her website https://www.katwritesforyou.com/.

Award-winning author, chronic illness advocate, and community producer for The Mighty, Kat Harrison is delivering the most powerful message, that you are not alone. Despite struggling with a debilitating balance disorder, oscillopsia, that has made her vision bounce since the age of 15, Kat dove headfirst into life. Determined, willful, and adventurous, she moved to New York not just for school but also because she wanted the monumental challenge of navigating a big city with oscillopsia. Her career started in the world of magazine editorials, primarily in lifestyle publications in Good Housekeeping, Time Out New York Kids, and Glamour. However, her experience with chronic illness slowly guided her into writing about health challenges after she was approached to write a feature story for Real Simple magazine on migraine, something Kat struggles with as a result of her balance disorder. Kat has since written two children's books, the award-winning, Surgery on Sunday, and her most recent publication, 'Migraine and Mia'. These stories provide comfort to children who may be facing surgery or a migraine diagnosis and can help a youngster understand what a parent or loved one is going through. These colorful, captivating, and creative books come to life thanks to Kat's immeasurable writing talent. They feature spirited protagonists and clever imagery, providing gentle insights into these daunting health challenges. Today's conversation covers Kat's diagnosis story and the mental turmoil that can result after being saddled with a debilitating chronic condition in your teens. We walk along Kat's journey from editorial writer to chronic illness author, including why she decided to write children's books about topics that few dare to broach.  It was a pleasure to spend time with Kat, despite numerous health challenges she showed up for this conversation with a smile on her face and was a complete joy to talk to. I am so honored that she took the time to sit down for this conversation and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

First Peoples have long used key sacred plants as powerful healing tools and to communicate with the "mind of nature." In this truly unique session Bioneers associate producer and editor of Visionary Plant Consciousness J.P. Harpignies and ethnobotanist/artist Kat Harrison hosted deeply experienced practitioners of sacred plant traditions from the International Council of 13 Indigenous Grandmothers, including Mazatec Elder Julieta Casimiro; Maria Alice Campos Freire, a Madrinha in Brazil's Santo Daime Church; traditional Cheyenne dance leader, sculptress and writer Margaret Behan Red Spider Woman; and Bernadette Rebienot, Omyene healer and master of the lboga Bwiti Rite.

Shamanic botanical traditions and modern reinventions propose that certain plants may offer people a direct line to a profound ecological intelligence. Hosted by Bioneers Associate Producer J.P. Harpignies, editor of Visionary Plant Consciousness; with ethnobotanist, artist and plant-person extraordinaire Kat Harrison; CODEPINK co-founder, and board member of the Drug Policy Alliance, Jodie Evans; and Erik Davis, a scholar of spiritual subcultures, author of several classics, including Techgnosis, Nomad Codes, and The Visionary State: A Journey Through California's Spiritual Landscapes.

The worlds of psychedelic research and culture have historically been heavily male, and the stories of some of the great women pioneers in these domains have not received the attention they deserve. This historic panel discussion brought together some of the most extraordinary women who have contributed to this field in their own very diverse ways. The intrepid ethnobotanist, artist and co-founder of Botanical Dimensions, Kat Harrison was joined by the legendary Carolyn “Mountain Girl” Garcia, a key figure in the Merry Pranksters and former wife of the late Grateful Dead guitarist; Annie Oak, founder of the Women's Visionary Congress; and family nurse midwife with decades of experience, Mariavittoria Mangini, Ph.D.

BJJ black belt Kat Harrison is strong and kind, wise and funny and foul-mouthed and amazing. Listen and be saved.

As a former softball player and as a hard working professional who often balanced multiple jobs, Kat Harrison of Dayton, OH has always been on the move. And luckily for her, she’s a frequent babysitter to four rambunctious grandchildren. As a result, she can often be found running around trying to keep things under control. She doesn’t mind. But six years ago, at the age of 41, a sudden diagnosis of ovarian cancer—which had already spread to her pelvis and colon when found—brought Kat’s active life to a screeching halt. The pain and stress that followed the diagnosis and treatment left her frustrated, scared, and unable to enjoy her busy life. While receiving chemotherapy early on to slow the growth of the cancer, her oncologist recognized that Kat needed better support to help with pain and anxiety. She referred her to a team of specialists with one collective goal: to give Kat back the quality life she once enjoyed. That team was Palliative Care. The Palliative Care team at Innovative Care Solutions, Division of Palliative Care, at the Hospice of Dayton, supports Kat with her pain and emotional symptoms and has helped her get back to an active life as she continues to receive chemotherapy treatment.

Guest speaker: Kathleen "Kat" Harrison PROGRAM NOTES: [NOTE: All quotations are by Kat Harrison.] "If a bird you're not used to seeing comes and sits on a tree outside your window and calls, and calls, and calls. It's not just a bird of a trip. It's a bird that has a message that it is sending you that may be positive, that may be a warning. It's something you pay attention to.” “You really need to, at least part of the time, speak [out loud] to the entity that you are invoking the presence of. That the whole idea with these medicines is to go into an active, right now, relationship between beings. It's inter-species communication.” “In order to do this kind of magical work, energy transforming work, you have to create a vulnerable oasis. You have to be willing to be open and be vulnerable, and in order to do that you have to set up protection around you, around the people you're working with, or even the place you're working. And one of the ways to set up protection is to plant plants that carry that kind of protective power around you.” Download MP3 PCs – Right click, select option Macs – Ctrl-Click, select option [From their Web site: "Thank you for considering Gaian Botanicals as your source for high quality ethnobotanicals, herbs and teas.

Guest speaker: Kathleen "Kat" Harrison Big Island, Little Planet March 17–28, 2012 A Travel Intensive in Polynesia on the Big Island of Hawaii Ethnobotanist Kathleen Harrison and Hawaiian cultural teacher Momi Subiono will lead this travel intensive, open to all who have a desire to immerse themselves in the story of plants, nature, and a deep cultural awareness of place. PODCAST PROGRAM NOTES: [NOTE: All quotations are by Kat Harrison.] "The role of conscious, intentional behavior that is described by culture or subcultural rules of behavior with reflected meaning is sort of a way of describing ritual generally, and we draw these forms out of a number of traditions.” “I think when we go into thinking about how to do psychoactive medicines it's very valuable to look deeply, to look seriously, at the traditions that have attended these medicines through time.” “Repeated behavior in the same mode over a long time generates a kind of an etheric possibility of it recurring and being potentized by its ongoing, indefinite repetition.” “I feel that it's really valuable to look into the ritual history of the place where you live or the place where you're working.” “Pay homage to the history of ritual that is coming through the place.” “Why one [psychedelic medicine] may be your best friend's ally and not your ally is a mystery. And maybe you can solve that mystery and maybe not. But you should honor the fact that some things work for you and some things are not your medicine, even though everyone around you appears to be having a good time.” “You don't lead with your head. You let your heart and your body tell you what to do in these [introspective psychedelic] moments. Then if you think it's time to get up and bolt out into the street, you let your head come in and tell you, 'Don't! Sit down. You're not going anywhere.' ” Download MP3 PCs – Right click, select option Macs – Ctrl-Click, select option Thank you to The Turtles for "Eve of Destruction"
