In this episode, I sit down with botanical energy worker Kelley Rico to reflect on the subtle ways plants and energy can support sensitive children. What began as a search for help with my own child opened into a conversation about the deep intelligence of the natural world and the quiet ways it speaks to us. Kelley shares how she works with flower essences, astrology, and energy tools like dowsing to create personalized remedies, while I recount what it was like to invite her support into our family life. What unfolded was not a quick fix but a process of slowing down, listening, and trusting the unseen connections between parent, child, and nature. For parents of highly sensitive kids, or anyone curious about energy, intuition, and plant medicine, this conversation offers gentle and practical insights into how the living world around us can help bring balance, grounding, and connection into our homes.
In this reflective conversation, we explore:
How plants and energy can support sensitive children in ways that go beyond the physical
The role of astrology, dowsing, and intuition in creating personalized remedies
Why flower essences are more about subtle shifts than quick fixes
