20 - Seeded. Called By The Plant with Bee and Ray.

In this episode, we pull back the curtain and share some our own stories of how the plant called us into this space.

From harm reduction and patient advocacy, to chronic pain, migraines, and the quiet frustration of being dismissed in the doctor’s office each of us followed a different road. But the common thread is connection. The plant didn’t just relieve symptoms; she shifted our perspectives, revealed truths we couldn’t ignore, and opened the possibility of healing on deeper levels.

This episode isn’t about giving you a one-size-fits-all answer. It’s about reminding you that there are choices, and that healing isn’t just about quick fixesit’s about slowing down, listening, and reconnecting with yourself.

What We Talk About in This Episode

• The harm reduction frontline and what it taught us about preventable loss
• Living through migraines, chronic pain, and the opioid treadmill
• Gentle first encounters with the plant and what shifted afterward
• How stigma silences women and patients, and why that has to change
• The role of meditation, mindfulness, and holistic care alongside cannabis
• Why respect, patience, and “starting low, going slow” matter more than ever
• The bigger medicine: connection to self, to others, and to possibility

Why This Matters
Too often, women’s pain is dismissed, masked with pills, or met with silence. By sharing our stories, we want to open doors for conversations, for new pathways, and for anyone who has ever wondered if there’s another way forward.
