11: Herbalism, Beekeeping & Earth-Centered Healing with Courtney Cosgriff

Have you ever felt drawn to plant medicine, natural remedies, or the mystery of honeybees? In this episode, Dr. Ciara Martin sits down with Courtney Cosgriff, a clinical herbalist, beekeeper, and founder of Honey Bee Herbals, to explore the deep connection between herbalism, beekeeping, and holistic healing.

Courtney’s journey into herbalism began after surviving two near-death experiences, one of which involved a wasp sting to the eye. Through a series of synchronicities, she was led to beekeeping, bee shamanism, and the study of plant medicine, ultimately discovering the profound ways that nature supports healing.

In this episode, we discuss:

How beekeeping led Courtney to herbalism and natural medicine
The ancient practice of apitherapy (healing with honey, venom & propolis)
Herbs for stress, anxiety, and hormone balance
Why emotional healing is key to physical well-being
Simple ways to reconnect with nature—even in a city
How herbalism can help working moms & busy professionals find balance

If you’ve ever been curious about herbal medicine, beekeeping, or restoring your connection to the earth, this conversation will leave you feeling inspired and empowered.
