Ayurveda
I am obsessed with understanding the body and what impacts it. I am always asking WHY It is my mission to help women understand their body better, how everyday choices impact their symptoms/health/genetics, and how we can use nutrition, lifestyle, systems biology, nutrients, and herbs to shift the terrain in the body towards longtime resilience and vibrant health. I believe there is a missing gap in our healthcare system and I am doing what I can to fill it. I originally went back to school after undergrad and completed Premed requirements but decided I was more interested in a natural approach to health. I spent almost a decade at that time working in the birth world as a doula, a prenatal/postpartum yoga therapist, and a childbirth educator. Despite great docs, I noticed that women weren't being educated and empowered about their bodies and root causes were not being investigated. During this time my husband was in medical school and the medical professionals I was engaging with both socially and at work would often disregard or belittle nutrition, herbs, and lifestyle medicine and I got fed up and fired up. I was hell bent on going back to school to learn the science of how the body works, what drives health and disease, what causes symptoms, what impacts our genetic expression, how are our body systems connected, and how can we impact health with food, lifestyle, nutrients, etc. My frustration motivated my return to school, inspired my life's work, and fuels my passion around educating, supporting, and empowering women to understand their body and take smart steps to resolve symptoms, drive health, and turn on healthy genes. When not supporting women to feel better I am often out in the wild playing in the mountains, sitting by a crackling fire, or gazing at the stars. I live with my family in Truckee and believe in the power of the wild and the kitchen.Show More

Ayurveda
My name is Tabitha Boze and I am an Ayurvedic Health Counselor. I found Ayurveda (or Ayurveda found me) in 2019. After struggling with acne since adolescence, my skin condition evolved into uncontrollable adult cystic acne when I was 21 years old. No skin creme or pill would heal my acne. Even after taking most extreme acne treatment available in the United States, it eventually returned. This is how I found Ayurveda. I was searching for something that I could understand and something that felt real; this sacred science offered me exactly that. I remember sitting on the floor of my apartment, opening up "Ayurveda for Idiots" and completely lighting up. I finally understood an approach toward healing and it felt like there was something out there that understood me too. I am drawn toward Ayurveda because it is truly a holistic medicinal approach– acknowledging and honoring the whole. Rather than a one-size-fits-all model, this ancient wisdom considers all aspects of what it means to be human– digestion, elimination, appetite, mood, energy level, spiritual connection, nourishment in relationships, and so on. It is all connected and deserves a seat at the table. With this multi-faceted approach, we attempt to discover the root cause of disease rather than treating only the symptom. After years of not feeling fully heard or seen by doctors, this approach seemed attractive, relieving, and even somewhat magical. In addition to my interest in Ayurveda as a way to help us heal on an individual level, I also feel called to the importance and cultivation of community. I view Ayurveda as an entry point to the field of wellness and beyond that, will use it as an opportunity to bring folks together. Rather than heal in isolation, we can heal in community. We may also breathe, laugh, dance, cry, grieve, morn, and alchemize together.Show More

I am Katie Rose.
I am Katie Rose. I learned early that the land speaks in stones, feathers, leaves, and soil—if you take the time to listen. Childhood curiosity became devotion, and devotion became study: UC Berkeley, Smithsonian Tropical Research Institute in Panama, GUMP Research Station in French Polynesia, Charles Darwin Research Station in the Galápagos, the Leibniz Center for Tropical Marine Research in Germany. Across continents, I witnessed the subtle conversations between humans and the earth—the pulse of life beneath our feet, the wisdom that flows through water, wind, roots, and wings. I returned home to Big Sur, to the place that first shaped me, to weave science, ancestral knowing, and lived experience into Woven Herbs, an education tea business that weaves our wild native medicines into healing teas, helping my community learn to recognize that medicine grows abundantly and wildly, and is here for us, always. Here at Woven, healing is a remembering. Remembering the rhythms of our bodies, the medicine of plants, bees, and minerals, the quiet intelligence that whispers beneath habit, depletion, and forgetting. With Woven Herbs, I work with plants—herbalism, foraging, tea ceremonies, herbal astrology readings, forest bathing, wilderness therapy, guided foraging hikes—learning their language, their medicine, their ethics of reciprocity. Independently, I work with bees—apitherapy, hive stewardship, bee medicine, dreaming with the bees—receiving their teaching of harmony, vigilance, devotion, and reciprocity. I work with cycles—new moon and full moon ceremonies, women’s circles, menstrual cycle coaching, womb wisdom tea blends, seasonal rituals to honor equinoxes and solstices—inviting the body to remember its innate rhythm and connection to the unseen forces. I work with reflection and guidance—dream therapy, life and health coaching, nature therapy—holding space for insight, integration, and gentle transformation. I witness the softening of chronic stress, the restoration of sleep and digestion, the release of dependence, the return of energy and clarity. Healing emerges as relationship: to self, to land, to breath, to the threads that connect us all. It is an honor to hold ceremonial space within Healer Hive, to walk alongside those who seek to root back into vitality, rhythm, and belonging, and to remember, together, that medicine is all around us, alive, and generous.Show More

Sage Ardas is a holistic healer, advanced health coach, and energy worker offering a deeply integrative approach to wellness. Her work weaves together reflexology, cupping, and energetic alignment to elevate, balance, and harmonize the body’s natural frequencies. Drawn to family and community wellness, Sage began as a postpartum doula before earning her Master’s in Traditional Chinese Medicine in Oakland, CA. Her studies and travels through China and her exploration of herbalism, Ayurveda, homeopathy, Kundalini Yoga and Tibetan medicine deepened her understanding of the universal principles of healing and guided her back to her ancestral lineage of healers. In her years practicing in a bustling downtown clinic, Sage discovered her passion for reproductive health, fertility, and wellbeing. Her master’s thesis focused on a healing protocol for PTSD, inspired by personal loss and her desire to support veterans, mental health and trauma survivors. After a long, difficult birth left her with mobility challenges, Sage’s own healing journey took on new depth. Through a blend of physical rehabilitation, energetic medicine, and ancestral guidance, she reclaimed her strength and purpose. Now a devoted mother of two, Sage’s work centers on optimizing the body’s natural cycles, awareness and understanding hormones, honoring postpartum recovery, and empowering others to reconnect with their innate rhythm of healing and finds deep fulfillment in supporting her community.Show More
