The World Needs More Flowers

In this deeply heartfelt episode of Real Native Roots: Untold Stories, Vickie sits down with her dear friend, business partner, and “sister soul,” Barbara Roloff, for a conversation about identity, belonging, flowers, healing, and what it means to truly bloom later in life. 🌻

Barbara shares her journey growing up in a beautifully multicultural adoptive family, reconnecting with her Native Hawaiian roots, meeting her birth family as an adult, and discovering the many places that became “home” throughout her life. Together, Vickie and Barbara reflect on love, resilience, slowing down, community care, aging with intention, and the powerful lessons flowers can teach us about patience, purpose, and growth.

You’ll also hear stories about Barbara’s flower farm journey, the parallels between tending gardens and tending communities, and why the world desperately needs more flowers…and more people willing to lead with love.

This episode is for anyone navigating healing, identity, reinvention, grief, purpose, or simply trying to remember what truly matters in this short and sacred life.
