This Focus Session  explores the gap between what we think clients might need and what is logistically workable in their lives — and how practitioners can design protocols collaboratively with this in mind. \nThrough the frameworks of capacity assessment\, behavior replacement\, phased protocols\, and client/practitioner collaborative care\, in this Focus Session\, we’ll hash out how to more effectively meet clients in their lives rather than inside of our clinical ideal. Practitioners will leave with a toolkit for designing recommendations that are honest\, sustainable\, and workable for their clients. \n\nTeacher Name: Cameron Strouss\, B.S.\, RH (AHG)\, FH\, Aromatherapist \nTeacher Bio: Cameron Strouss is an herbal educator and clinical herbalist dedicated to making herbal medicine accessible and safe through clinically informed education.

Cameron holds a Clinical Herbal and Functional Herbalist Certification from The Eclectic School of Herbal Medicine and is a graduate of the Southeastern Institute for Traditional Herbal Studies.

Ember’s practice integrates vitalism\, energetic systems\, physiology\, phytochemistry\, scientific research\, nutrition and spirit for a holistic and nature connected approach. For Ember\, herbal medicine is a crucial part of growing empowered & resilient communities\, mutual aid and webs of community care. They want to live in a world where empowering\, holistic\, integrative community healthcare is the norm\, and where part of being a health care provider means being committed to actually addressing root causes of illness and disease.

DESCRIPTION:Herb-Drug Interactions: An Integrative Approach with Benjamin Zappin\, LAc and Ingrid Bauer\, MD \n  \n📆 Monday\, September 14\, 21\, 28\, & October 5\n⏱️ 6:00pm – 8:00pm ET / 3:00pm – 5:00pm PT \n  \nAbout this Series \nA Four-Part Series (4 x 2 hour classes\, 90 min plus 30 q&a each class) \nIn this series\, Ben & Ingrid will share from their years of experience in clinical practice navigating the intersection between herbs and pharmaceuticals\, and their years of teaching about this topic.

We will ground our teaching in cases and offer suggested treatment protocols while promoting “flexible” herbalism. We will take a “both/and” rather than an “either/or” approach to integrative medicine\, and will highlight “red flags” that merit referral to a higher level of care. \n  \nPart 1: Introduction to Pharmacology & Herb-Drug interactions \n\nFoundations of pharmacology including pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics\nHow to read scholarly articles and interpret information about herb-drug interactions\nPotentially beneficial and/or harmful herb-drug interactions\nInterprofessional communication about herbs & drugs\n\n  \nPart 2: Cardiovascular Health \n\nBlood pressure\nLipids\nCardiac conditions: CHF and arrhythmias\n\n  \nPart 3: Pain and Inflammation \n\nMusculoskeletal conditions\nInflammatory conditions\nSmooth muscle and visceral pain\n\n  \nPart 4: Mental Health \n\nDepression & Anxiety\nExtreme states of consciousness

SUMMARY:The Business of Herbalism with Rachelle Robinett\, RH(AHG)
DESCRIPTION:Join live or watch the recordings \n❤ Pay from the heart pricing available; See below event description. \n\n$17 – Choose this option if you need to.\n$37 – Choose this option if you can. \n$57 – Pay it forward if you are able. \n\nThe Business of Herbalism with Rachelle Robinett\, RH(AHG) \n📆 Tuesday November 17\, 2026\n⏱️ 6:00pm – 7:30pm ET / 3:00pm – 4:30pm PT \n  \nAbout this Focus Session \nThis class is for herbalists who want to build a real business around their work—one that is not only aligned and meaningful\, but financially sustainable. Because knowing the plants is only one part of the equation. Turning that knowledge into a living\, evolving body of work—clients\, classes\, content\, and products—is something else entirely. \nIn this Focus Session\, I’ll teach directly from my experience as an herbalist and entrepreneur. We’ll explore how to build and grow a practice across multiple pathways: 1:1 client work\, workshops and classes (both online and in-person)\, and product-based offerings—whether handmade in small batches or developed through more scalable\, manufacturing-based models. \nWe’ll also cover the often-overlooked engine of a modern herbal business: marketing\, storytelling\, and content. How to use social media (and beyond) not just to promote your work\, but to express your perspective\, build trust\, and create demand in a way that feels natural rather than extractive. \nThis is not about forcing growth or following rigid business formulas. It’s about understanding your options\, choosing your model intentionally\, and creating something that can evolve with you—whether that means a small\, intimate practice or a more expansive\, multi-channel business. \n  \nAbout the Teacher: Rachelle Robinett\, RH(AHG) \nRachelle Robinett\, Registered Herbalist (AHG)\, is a writer\, art­ist\, and lifelong naturalist. She’s the founder of multidisciplinary companies dedicated to the art and science of naturalness. Combining tra­ditional medicine and current health insights with an understanding of individual behavior modification\, Robinett has provided accessible plant-based healing to countless people. She’s based in New York and Costa Rica. \nTo learn more about Rachelle\, Visit her websites: rachellerobinett.com \nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/rachellerobinett/  \nNewsletter: https://rachellerobinett.substack.com/  \nWebsite: https://www.rachellerobinett.com/  \nhttps://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/753977/naturally-by-rachelle-robinett-rh-ahg/  \n
