In this second Blossom Note, Kimberly shares a soulful reflection on the albums that have been flowing through her writing days—and into the garden. From Stevie Wonder’s The Secret Life of Plants to Minnie Riperton’s Come to My Garden, these musical classics aren't just nostalgic—they’re sonic seeds, rooting her in memory, creativity, and care.

This short audio meditation touches on vinyl records, maternal influence, and the quiet lessons that emerge when we move between the page and the soil.

Tune in for a moment of pause, a bit of warmth, and an invitation to consider what’s flowing from your own speakers as you grow.

🎙️ A tender prelude to the upcoming launch of Inner Garden Podcast—a series about healing, land, and legacy.

In this first Blossom Note—a living audio garden journal entry from Kimberly Bryant—we meet a tiny black swallowtail caterpillar who reminds us that beauty often emerges from the cast-off and the overlooked. These intimate voice notes capture real moments of discovery in the garden, where spontaneous wisdom takes root alongside the plants.

Part garden story, part meditation on change, this reflection offers a glimpse into the contemplative heart of The Inner Garden Podcast—where every season brings new lessons in growth, release, and renewal.

🎧 This is not a full episode—just a quiet moment to pause, listen, and tend to what matters.
