The lack of any rigour and the true grab bag of consumerist gobbledygook of this podcast is astounding. This podcast is the auditory equivalent of a an Amazon crochet dress and a flower crown for a fake-spiritual trip to Tulum. I feel dirtier for having listened to it and am mad that it was...Read full review »

Listening to Amber share her wisdom is both comforting and empowering. After listening to Mythic Medicine, I feel like I just had a heart-to-heart with a best friend or big sister. I’m so grateful for her pioneer work in the realms of health and family. Thank you Amber for your inspiration!

Always something new to reflect upon. Amber has a beautiful calming voice that is easy to listen to on my beach walks. This is precious time to be present and listen. I too have a high spirited daughter who is almost 6 and a teenage boy almost 15 so it’s nice to have something in common...Read full review »

If you’re looking for a podcast that discusses traditional and modern medicine in a thoughtful and intelligent way, this isn’t it. I like a little woo and earth/plant connection with my herbalism, but 10 minutes into the first episode I listened to, they’re already devolving into anti-vaxxer...Read full review »

This podcast is a guiding light for my winter nights. I love everything about it - it feels like a mythic cave full of tinctures, books, firelight, glittering herbal oils and perhaps a curled up cat with blue eyes. I love it so much. Amber is an incredible interviewer & holder of space. She...Read full review »

This podcast kept coming up in my suggestions and its content definitely sounded appealing! I followed for a while but was becoming more and more turned off to the host’s negativity, judgemental attitude and arrogance. I tried revising again after a year with an open mind but was turned off again...Read full review »

I lived the concept of this podcast and connecting to healers and wise folk, but a recent not-too-subtle rant about vaccines causing autism was my line. I’m autistic and the misinformation and catatrophizing of my neurotype is the worst of the “autism mom” trope. There’s a difference between...Read full review »

I was surprised that the guest seemed unaware of the reasons why we have so much chronic illness and autoimmune disease. It’s a huge topic with our Independent Presidential Candidate RFK,Jr. It is one of the major focal points of his campaign. The reasons and solutions are out there.

I have been recently called to listen to so many episodes of this podcast lately and, as a result, feel like I understand myself, my purpose, my body, and my connection to the earth so much more for it. I’ve had so many moments in the last couple weeks listening to episodes that I got chills...Read full review »

I used to enjoy this podcast but the host, Amber, has become increasingly more didactic, dictatorial, and angry. She used to sell her oils/herbs but now she is peddling a bunch of other things, some which seem questionable and similar to multi-level marketing and pyramid scheme products. Her most...Read full review »

I was, it seems, lucky, to have a doula, a caring birth centre, a water birth, people who extolled the virtues of cosleeping. Now 20 years ago, can’t believe we’re still on the periphery. Really been enjoying this podcast. Wo just listened to episode 97. Good work. What a sad story. I got tears...Read full review »

I love love love this podcast. So many good things! I’m even a Patreon member. The guest on Ep 98 was disappointing. Not at all what I expected to hear from the title. We as white people have to understand the “black illiteracy rate” this guest speaks of IS a symptom of the systematic oppression...Read full review »

I have loved listening to this podcast for its wide ranging topics and insights but this episode was a source of some seriously incorrect and I researched claims about gender, gender expression and children’s knowing about themselves. I was really disappointed.
DC Speechie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/04/23
A must listen to. It’s rich with ancient, sacred wisdom that somehow has made it through all of the years and generations. Thank you so much for your generous, curious and wise spirit.
KCobabe via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/31/23
This podcast has been one of my recommendations on iTunes for ages and I finally listened recently. I am completely in love with Amber’s honest and informed view on herbal medicine and so many other things. I’ve started at the beginning and I’m working my way through all the episodes. There is so...Read full review »

Dearest Amber you have really given me so much wisdom fed my curiosity, enriched my human experience by quantifying the plant and herbal kingdom as one of the most enriching and joyess nurturing healing modalities. Your knowledge and desire to deep dive on topics you bring to light has always...Read full review »
Thalia Kevela via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 06/25/23
In episode 98 either Amber or the guest says that children always know gender. Have you ever witnessed children around transgender people? or in a social space where gender is more nuanced? Why do we need to teach children to be afraid of men or trans ppl? i was interested in this episode and...Read full review »

I’ve been recently looking for a new podcast to listen to because I am a birthworker aka Doula and only listen to Birth podcasts. But after attending a very long 60 hour birth, I was exhausted and my soul needed healing. After asking others for recommendations for a spiritual podcast, nobody...Read full review »

When I found Ambers podcast in 2017, I nearly cried. Floundering alone with my herbal + health thoughts, it was magical and such a balm for my soul to sit at her table (so to speak) and listen to these beautiful conversations. I savour each one, saving them for long forest walks or solo country...Read full review »

I have learned a lot about how to take care of myself from this podcast. I’ve learned about the importance of trusting my gut even when so many people around me are telling me I’m crazy. I owe my relationship and healing from the plant world to this podcast and a book called “Flowers for a girl...Read full review »

So I stumbled soon this episode just by chance - as I had clicked abd swiped along new podcasts to listen to while I work at night . I do commercial cleaning at night , I’m super active with my kids school and extra curriculum activities and so I’ve had some struggles medically no answer etc and...Read full review »
veeetrraa via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 04/18/23
The podcast used to be about herbal medicine but now it’s full of conspiracies, transphobic rhetoric, and her trying to sell items that sound like an MLM or scam. It’s laughable how they market themselves as “truth tellers” when they’re actually just being harmful to others.
Kris92746 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/14/23
Love this podcast. Amazing honest conversations.
Kay(the)Doll via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/10/23
Some really great episodes with fabulous information early on, but in the past year or two have been increasingly disturbed by the host’s philosophy on gender roles and some anti-vaccine beliefs. Some guests also seem to be pretty problematic recently as well. I have unsubscribed twice, and may...Read full review »

I used to love this podcast for its insight into many things that interested me. Over the last year or more it seems like the host has been poisoned by Instagram and the internet. At first is was just the expression of so much anxiety around that space and the retelling of weird feuds, then came...Read full review »

The level of spiritual bypassing in this is so painful to listen to and downright insulting.
Zach zaph via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/15/23
The energy of this podcast has been off for me for awhile which is a shame because I really have loved it in the past! I’ll keep dipping in for a check every now and again!
crabcake86 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/10/23
I thought this podcast would be inspiring so I picked an episode, #98 and things get pretty transphobic towards the middle. The host & guess express a lot of fear about Trans / gender identity education, it’s pretty disturbing and harmful.
EmzoSmizo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/05/23
I found this podcast almost a year ago and fell madly in love. I can’t recommend it enough! Huge thank you to Amber for creating this space, sharing her stories, letting us listen to the most nourishing conversations and courageously using her voice.
Kqm5089 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/23/23
This episode will promote violence against the trans population. It is hateful and contains harmful misinformation. I’ve never heard this podcaster so enraged about something as she is about how teaching kids that transness is valid is “gaslighting” them, teaching them to fall for manipulation...Read full review »

So disappointed about the direction of the show. Used to be about herbalism and ancestry, but now just an infomercial for affiliate products, sprinkled w episodes who share the authors (extreme and boring) opinions on culture wars topics. The titles of the show do not match the content. Two stars...Read full review »

Used to absolutely love the show. I appreciated the nuanced conversations and deep dives into topics I care deeply about (rewilding, ancestral wisdom, stepping out of the overculture, homesteading) but now that Amber has discovered affiliate marketing, she and her guests have the most pointless,...Read full review »

Episode 98 is downright violent and foolish it to mention tripping over itself in contradictions.
ffrraanncceess via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/03/23
Used to love this and now it has turned into a scary white woman thinking she knows how to educate on racial education and trans people. Was a Patreon supporter in the past but this change in views has made me question a lot of other voices in the spiritual space that I used to turn for guidance....Read full review »

Thank you for not being afraid to confront the and speak your mind on the gender ideology. Please do not back down. We need voices like yours.
SisterMoon❤️❤️❤️ via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/28/22
I guess sometimes good, often not. This is what I imagine privileged people doing herbalism sounds like. Not a perspective of someone who lives in the real world. Her talk about vaccines makes me want to crawl inside myself and die….in fact on several subjects. Sometimes affirming good info,...Read full review »

I was expecting a helpful episode I could share with my friends about neuro-divergent children and instead found a lot of surface level and damaging assertions being made about trans children. It makes me doubt your expertise, Amber, about other topics I know less about. The podcast promotes...Read full review »
Where_Trees_Convene via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/26/22
The host and I disagree about some things, like vaccines. But that was okay, I still liked hearing what she had to say about plants. However, listening to a white woman talk about gender and race in episode 98…. I can’t support anymore.
RachyLuu via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 12/23/22
I was an early listener, patreon supporter, and fb group member. I loved many of the intriguing ideas Amber and her guests explored, but the show has gotten harmfully pseudoscientific. In the current climate I feel this is especially harmful and have tangible consequences — not for the better. I...Read full review »

It feels almost trite to say that I love this podcast and now feel like I don’t want to listen to it anymore. I understand the direction opened up by episode 98 with Teva Johnstone as perpetuating harm. I am not willing to continue to listen to something that mixes in hate towards trans people...Read full review »

I only found this podcast September of 2022 and its a gift. I am starting at the beginning and cherishing each episode. Thank you Amber!
SGoss via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/03/22
Having moved to the middle of no where to realize our dream, I cannot get enough of Ambers calm and hypnotic tones as she interviews wise inspiring guests, while I’m drying mushrooms, preserving apples or while I’m digging in the earth. Shes a modern day sage. Thank you Amber

I have loved this podcast since the moment I found it, many years ago. It’s like coming back to an old friend time and time again. Thank you so much Amber!

Title pretty much says it. It’s interesting and I like some of the perspectives presented on this podcast, but the insane amount of pseudoscience (antivax propaganda, promoting a meat heavy diet for health, etc, etc) can make it hard to listen to.
