Nicole:

Welcome to the Frontline Herbalism Podcast with your host, Nicole Rose from the

Nicole:

Solidarity Apothecary.

Nicole:

This is your place for all things plants and

Nicole:

liberation.

Nicole:

Let's get started.

Nicole:

Hello.

Nicole:

Welcome back to the Frontline Herbalism

Nicole:

Podcast.

Nicole:

I am yet again recording this in a car, in a

Nicole:

car park because of childcare challenges.

Nicole:

And I'm really sorry about the sound quality.

Nicole:

One, my voice is going to.

Nicole:

And two,

Nicole:

my microphone is for some reason not working, like the adapter for my computer isn't working

Nicole:

for it.

Nicole:

So anyway, I'm really sorry about the quality.

Nicole:

I just wanted to say that the Herbalism PTSD and Traumatic Stress course is open for

Nicole:

enrolment again.

Nicole:

Woohoo.

Nicole:

So you've probably heard me talk about this course on every single episode of this

Nicole:

podcast, but it's like my main course,

Nicole:

body of work that explores all about trauma and different nervous system states and the

Nicole:

physiology of the nervous system,

Nicole:

as well as how do we collectively respond to trauma and traumatic stress, like the

Nicole:

political nature of trauma.

Nicole:

And then it really goes deep into nervines, which are plants with an affinity for the

Nicole:

nervous system.

Nicole:

We look at 32 plants in depth with their own

Nicole:

profiles, like their own video recordings,

Nicole:

exploring their medicinal actions and their kind of role in recovery from trauma with, you

Nicole:

know, a lot of nuance and experience.

Nicole:

And yeah, this **** in practice.

Nicole:

And you know, if you're new to herbalism, it's got like all the things about medicine making

Nicole:

and how to forage safely and sustainably and herbal safety stuff and yeah, all the things.

Nicole:

So, yeah, it is open for enrollment.

Nicole:

Please check out the show notes of the podcast.

Nicole:

I'm going to link in where all the other episodes are, where I'm talking about the

Nicole:

course in much more depth.

Nicole:

I talk about the modules, how it was designed,

Nicole:

how it's structured.

Nicole:

So please check that out.

Nicole:

But yeah, please, please enroll if you're

Nicole:

interested.

Nicole:

It's going to be available until early October.

Nicole:

And yeah, I'm going to be talking about it more on, on upcoming episodes, but I just,

Nicole:

yeah, I just wanted to like nip on the podcast and tell you that it is.

Nicole:

Yeah, it is.

Nicole:

Ready to join.

Nicole:

It's completely sliding scale.

Nicole:

No one is turned away for lack of funds.

Nicole:

You can access it for free if needed.

Nicole:

But you know, like, financial contributions are seriously welcome, especially as I'm a

Nicole:

serious single parent with a toddler,

Nicole:

which again, is its own podcast episode at a later date.

Nicole:

Like they say, talk about your scars, not your wounds.

Nicole:

So I won't share the kind of **** show of things happening at the moment with my family,

Nicole:

but we're all okay.

Nicole:

And yeah,

Nicole:

the baby is.

Nicole:

He's doing great and is the best thing ever.

Nicole:

But anyway, yeah, if you can put some funds in, like a donation that's like amazing.

Nicole:

You're welcome to sign up to one of the payment plans so you can pay small amounts

Nicole:

over several months.

Nicole:

And all of the money, like it pays for my kind of livelihood, like my, the monthly salary

Nicole:

that I take, but it really like sustains the solidarity apothecary.

Nicole:

So it gets the books to prisoners, it gets the care packages out to people.

Nicole:

Means I can do one to one support with working class comrades and people without access to

Nicole:

funds.

Nicole:

You know, it used to enable me to go to

Nicole:

Calais,

Nicole:

which I'm not doing at the moment because of the baby, but I'm still involved in the mobile

Nicole:

herbal clinic project as you know.

Nicole:

And yeah, it just ******* enables everything.

Nicole:

So please, please, please sign up if you're keen.

Nicole:

I think it's a really high quality learning experience.

Nicole:

And yeah, there's not very many offerings that are similar out there.

Nicole:

And yeah, it's just part of this whole like solidarity economy with the course like your

Nicole:

contribution is going towards like shitloads of other solidarity work.

Nicole:

So yeah, thank you for taking an interest.

Nicole:

Please check it out.

Nicole:

And yeah, thanks for listening.

Nicole:

I will be back soon.

Nicole:
