SUMMARY:Webinar Intensive Series: How to Find More Clients with Camille Freeman
DESCRIPTION:📆 Wednesdays\, March 18\, 25\, April 1\, 8\n\n⏱️ 6:00pm – 8:00pm ET / 3:00pm – 5:00pm PT\n\n🎁 AHG Members receive $50 toward any webinar intensive! Use the coupon code found in the member discounts space when checking out for this and other intensives.\n\nJoin live or watch the recordings.\n\nAbout This Course\n\nStruggling to find enough clients to sustain your practice without feeling salesy or in over your head? Many herbalists rely on word-of-mouth\, tinker with social media\, or sign up for expensive online courses without any discernible results. It’s no wonder\, since most of us are trained in herbalism\, not in marketing.\nPromoting your practice doesn’t have to be a guessing game.\nIn this intensive\, you’ll create a simple marketing plan based on foundational business principles. We’ll clarify who you help and how to describe your work in language that’s accurate and easy for clients to understand. You’ll leave with a personalized plan for how to meet new people\, how to stay in touch with interested folks\, and how to invite them to work with you in ways that feel ethical and and aligned with your values and voice.\nThis framework works for many types of clinicians\, including introverts\, those with very limited time to devote to marketing\, low‑tech practitioners\, and those who avoid social media\, because your plan is customized for your voice\, your capacity\, and the ways you prefer to show up in community.\nBecause you can’t know what will work until you try it\, you’ll also set up a lightweight system to track results\, run small experiments\, and adapt your plan so it’s both feasible and effective for your practice.\nWith a solid plan in place\, you can stop wasting time on haphazard tactics (or feeling guilty for doing no marketing at all). You’ll know what to do each week to promote your practice and have simple data to guide your next steps. Over four weeks we’ll build a plan that’s true to your values\, time‑efficient\, and tailored to your capacity and community.\n\nTeacher Name: Camille Freeman\n\nTeacher Bio: Camille Freemaan\, DCN\, RH\, has been in practice as an herbalist and nutritionist since 2003\, with a focus on fertility\, pregnancy\, and menstrual health. She runs Monday Mentoring\, a community of practice for herbalists and nutritionists\, and offers continuing education programs as well. Camille has a podcast\, In the Clinic with Camille (intheclinic.com)\, and is the author of the book Write Better Newsletters: Grow your 1:1 Practice with Emails People Actually Want to Read. She holds a doctorate in clinical nutrition from MUIH (now part of Notre Dame of Maryland)\, as well as masters degrees in both herbal medicine (from MUIH) and physiology (from Georgetown University).

DESCRIPTION:Synergy: The Key to Effective Herbal Practice with David Winston RH (AHG)\nIn all the world’s great herbal traditions\, the use of single herbs (simples) is virtually unknown. Complex formulas are most often used and are if properly formulated significantly more effective than individual remedies.  With classic traditional formulas there are clear strategies to create a mixture that is more than the sum of its parts (1 + 1 = 3\, 4 or 5).  There are multiple ways to create synergy and avoid antagonism (1 + 1 = 1).  In this class we will look at the concepts and techniques used in TCM\, Ayurveda\, Unani-tibb\, Physiomedicalism\, Eclectic Medicine\, Siddha and Western herbal practice that allows the clinician to achieve superior results and repeated clinical success. \n\nTeacher Name: David Winston RH (AHG) \nDavid Winston is an Herbalist and Ethnobotanist with 57 years of training in Chinese\, Western/Eclectic and Southeastern herbal traditions.

SUMMARY:Herb-Drug Interactions: An Integrative Approach with Benjamin Zappin\, LAc and Ingrid Bauer\, MD
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. Rather than trying to cover every possible topic\, after the first week of laying a solid foundation\, they will delve into their three favorite areas of health expertise: cardiovascular health\, pain & inflammation\, and mental health. \n  \nThis series will be geared toward advanced students and practicing herbalists and will primarily review Western herbs\, but will also include some information about TCM. 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

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.
