What if your garden could be your therapist? In this episode, we’re joined by the multi-talented Jessica Murnane—author, creative consultant, longtime wellness advocate, and certified horticultural therapy practitioner—for a conversation that will leave you inspired to reconnect with nature in a whole new way.

We explore:

• What horticultural therapy is and how it’s been used throughout history
• Jessica’s personal journey with plants and healing
• The surprising ways gardens can support mental and physical wellness
• How to start incorporating plant-based therapeutic practices into your daily life
• Why getting your hands in the dirt might just be the medicine you need

Jessica also shares how her newest podcast Inside + Outside reflects her passion for merging nature and pop culture—and why she’ll gladly hand you garden snips if you walk by her home.

Whether you’re a plant lover or plant-curious, this episode offers a grounded and inspiring look at the power of green spaces to transform our inner world.
