Herstory is Medicine
Welcome to Herstory is Medicine — formerly A Mother's Journey to Holistic Health and Healing.
I'm Marissa — mom of three, holistic wellness coach, registered dietitian, energy healing practitioner, and student of herbal medicine.
If you've ever felt the quiet pull to heal more deeply, to trust and reconnect with your body, to break a cycle before it reaches your children — you're in the right place.
Every woman carries a story in her body. Passed down. Inherited. Oftentimes unspoken. Here, we share it and honor it. Because there are seasons when faith, hope, and trust feel hard to hold onto. And it's often in someone else's story that we remember healing is possible for us too.
Through empowering conversations, holistic healing practices, and powerful stories, this podcast helps mothers reclaim their energy, trust their inner wisdom, and create a life rooted in balance, peace, and purpose.
We'll explore topics such as mental and emotional health, spirituality, soul-aligned living, nervous system support, challenges in motherhood, breaking generational cycles, and so much more!
Because when you heal, it ripples through your children, your family, and the world.
This is a sacred space to guide you in remembering your wholeness.
If this resonates, grab yourself a cup of tea and join us here. I'm honored to walk alongside you on this journey. Together let's take mindful and intentional action towards living healthier, happier, more present, and purposeful lives!
