Taking A Leap of Faith to Become an Earth Ally with Sarah Wu [Episode 7]
Video coming soon!
This week we have the pleasure of welcoming clinical herbalist, permaculturist and deep ecology enthusiast, Sarah Wu to the podcast. We learn about her off-the-grid lifestyle and how our relationship with nature directly impacts the relationship we cultivate within ourselves. In this week’s podcast, Sarah explains how to unlearn the cultural imprinting engrained since birth and integrate your whole self into oneness with nature.
Sarah Wu is a clinical herbalist of nearly 20 years and a practicing permaculturist of a decade. Facilitating and mentoring people in a holistic lifestyle, Sarah focuses her teachings on Deep Ecology and the philosophy of Biophilia, rooted in the Wise Woman Traditions of modern witchcraft and earth-based spirituality. Sarah is the co-founder and producer of Envision Festival, where she curates the educational experiences as well as the Village Witches, honoring alternative and traditional eclectic healing modalities.
