The Lifestyle Herbalists Podcast--A healthy dose of happiness

Welcome to The Lifestyle Herbalist Podcast.

We are Dabney Vaccaro, a dental hygienist, herbalist, and wellness coach, and Sabrina Cooper, a dental hygienist, herbalist, mindful eating coach.  We are so glad you're here.

For years, we've have worked with people who were struggling with things like fatigue, poor sleep, digestive issues, weight challenges, chronic stress, and oral health concerns. What we have learned is that these issues rarely exist in isolation. The body is always communicating with us, and often the mouth is one of the first places those messages show up.

That's why this podcast exists.

Here, we'll explore the fascinating connections between oral health, mineral balance, herbal medicine, nutrition, and whole-body wellness. We'll talk about how everyday habits influence our health, how herbs can support the body's natural healing processes, and why addressing root causes often leads to better outcomes than simply chasing symptoms.

Our goal isn't to give you all the answers. It's to help you ask better questions, become more connected to your body, and discover practical tools that support your health in a sustainable way.

Whether you're a health professional, an herbal enthusiast, or someone simply looking to feel better, you're welcome here.

I'm not talking about the fruit that looks like a banana. Plantain (Plantago major) is a common broad-leaf, low growing plant that is a valuable ally in the summer.
Listen as Dabney explains the benefits of this common weed and why you should collect it for the winter months.
