Real Talk on Marriage, Plants, Kids, Business - My Husband, Owen Lindsay

Owen never thought he'd be a dad, neither of us planned on getting married, and we had no idea that our love for plants would play such a big role in sustaining our relationship. Here's a peek into how we make our lives together work...

IN THE INTRO:

  • Elderberry & Motherwort
  • Three things that make our marriage work

IN THE INTERVIEW:

  • How we met and then, six years later, got together (St. John's Wort oil played a role)
  • Why we pretended we weren't falling in love even when we clearly were
  • What we were doing before we got together, and how we've changed and grown together
  • How Owen, who never thought he'd have kids, transitioned first into the role of stepdad and then new father
  • How we find balance and prioritize our marriage while sharing kids, land, a home, and a business (spoiler alert: we don't)
  • What roles we each take on within the family and the business
  • Ramblings on getting married and raising kids in middle age
  • Parenting a teenager and a threenager
  • Adulting, we hate it but it brings us closer
  • Our reaction to our unexpected pregnancy
  • How we became homeowners and married people, two things we never envisioned for ourselves
  • What's growing in our gardens, what tending our land looks like
  • Sustainable wildcrafting (and pivoting away from wildcrafting)
  • Why plant communication has been heavy for Owen lately
  • What Owen thinks about my activism around the issue of vaccine mandates
  • Civil uprising is the only option left to us on so many fronts, so many issues, as big businesses continue to destroy environmental and human health in the name of profit
  • What we've learned from our fights
  • Envisioning the future of our business and family
