Vivian


Vivian ~ My Antioch College major of 'Social Ecology' brought me to the beautiful Catskill Mountains to 'live the good life' farming and raising two amazing kids with my partner. I have been working with Susun and Justine since 2003. I am self taught in web design/graphics and have always loved playing with color. I've been having fun creating banners, making the herbal ezine and helping make the Wise Woman Web an enjoyable and colorful experience.


Vicki


Vicki ~ gave up her corporate career in the big city for a greener life living on their farm in Upstate NY. Vicki homeschools their seven year old and takes care of their various rescued animals. In addition to enjoying her time with the Wise Woman Team, she also stays busy working on their sustainable farm and for their renewable energy business. If you don't find her harvesting medicinal plants, drying or creating her Sun Powered Herbal products, you will find her sitting quietly with a little earth between her toes in her garden.


Melissa


Melissa ~ I am an apprentice midwife, mother to two and partner to one. I am passionate about home birth and natural pregnancy, breastfeeding, and attachment parenting. I believe that the ability to birth is inherent in all women and I am fortunate to be invited into the homes of so many women who harness that ability and prove to me again and again how meant for the process of childbearing our bodies are. I am a lover of alternative medicine and the Wise Woman Way, and have implemented many of Susun's teachings when counseling clients in the practice I apprentice for. When not helping mothers birth babies and not at my own children's beck and call, I enjoy sewing, knitting and spinning.


butterfly


Mary Beth, Blackhawk Woman ~ I am a Medicine Woman with roots deep in my Native & Celtic heritages. on this Shamanic Journey i follow the Medicine Way of the Creator, seeking enlightenment through Love and Compassion. i am a healer, farmer, goat-herder, artist, writer, visionary, gypsy, walker, mother of 4, and grandmother of 5.


Lyn


Lyn ~ Has been part of the Wise Woman team since September 2002. In 1985, after graduating DUX from the Metropolitan Business College, Sydney with a shorthand speed of 120 words per minute, Lyn Prowse-Bishop was being encouraged into a life as a Court Reporter, but opted for 7½ years as, first, a Legal Secretary, and later as PA to a criminal lawyer in East Sydney. In 1993 she moved to Brisbane where she secured a job as Executive Assistant to the GM of the Brisbane Convention & Exhibition Centre. 6½ years later her entrepreneurial spirit took over and, motivated by the birth of her daughter, started a Virtual Assistant practice in February 2000 to utilise her skills in a home-based environment so that she could meet the dual needs of her growing family and those of a niche market of entrepreneurs requiring support services.


kim jewel


Kim Jewel ~ I am a self taught graphic and web designer. I have been working as a professional freelance graphic designer for the past 7 years. I started out making stationary for email's and personal signatures.I spend my life with my husband, my boys, and my many fur and feathered babies. I love spending time working in the garden, sculpting and doing needlework.


Jan


Jan ~ lives in Tulsa, Oklahoma with her Green Man/Soul Mate husband and their children, dogs, cats, and city chickens. She loves growing herbs, making medicine, cooking and eating good food, writing, making Goddess Dolls, doing almost anything with fabric and fiber, reading everything that comes her way, traveling, sleeping, listening to music, walking in the woods and sitting by the fireplace.

 


 

YarrowCrow is a work-at-home mama to four great kiddos, one great husband, and several wild things on a plot o' land in Kentucky. Her interests are varied, and at 36 found that Life Herself has become her greatest teacher. She feels that all paths in her life have brought her to one place--working in Love and Beauty. Her dear husband jokes that the "place" is being the Weird Lady Down the Street. Kim is pretty sure that role is secure as the neighbors often see her feeding "the lawn" (chickweed, violets, dandelions, etc.) to her children. In her professional, non-mama, world, Kim is a tool of the Divine Creatrix, allowing the muses to waft her as they may. Or, better stated, she is a writer/artist, intuitive and healer. In her free time, you can find her walking the spiral labyrinth her husband made, talking to the plants, or having tea with friends on her back porch. She welcomes each of you to join her in these activities at any time.

Leslie - I have been studing the healing arts for 17 years. I tend to stay mainly with natural practices. Always looking to learn something new. I am a wife and mother of one. Making tinctures, salves and tea blends for family and friends is my passion.
StormWatcher -  I am a daughter of the Earth, living my dreams and following my heart.  I am located in Lima, Peru, where I teach English and spin my dreams of alpaca, mohair, and wool.  I am a fiber artist, storyteller, and dreamer.

 

My name is karen joy, also sometimes known as Karen, KJ, Kata, Kalena, and Mama! I am blessed to live in the Catskills of New York, just as they slide into the Hudson Valley! My passions are Ari, plants, nourishment, compassion, and dear friends and family! I love to cook deeply nourishing foods, create and gather clothing, baskets, pottery, and fabrics, and explore the depths of being a shamanic herbalist! I strive to hear before speaking, face the moment, and live vibrantly amidst chaos!

 

coyotemist - I am a mom of 2, and a wife of 10 years. In the past few years I have been a student of both the Wise Woman Tradition and of modern medicine, and am constantly looking for ways to enhance the wellbeing of my family and friends. In 2009 I will graduate as a Respiratory Therapist, and yet, the scientific knowledge that I am gaining brings me closer and closer to the world around me. In this whole process, the green world is sharing more and more of their gifts, and I'm grateful for it. Beyond that, I love horses, and reading!

AmyD - I moderate the Wise Woman Birth Control topic of the forum. It is vital for us to understand our reproductive selves and stay free from pregnancy if that's what we desire. Let's learn together the Wise Woman Ways! My interest in self-care came from watching my Grandmother stitch what was left of my cat's paw closed with a needle and thread! She held the crying cat between her legs and sewed it shut. That made quite an impression. I am raising my 2 great kids in central Ohio with my supportive husband. Thanks for this opportunity.

desertmedicinewoman is a life-long lover and student of the plant world, having studied the healing powers of the plants since girlhood. After graduating from Smith College, moving to the Sonoran Desert, and struggling with the 9-5 work world, she decided to follow a path closer to her heart, healing and helping and working closely with the plants around her. She has studied with the Tucson Clinic of Botanical Medicine, and is currently a student of Rosemary Gladstar. She believes plants can offer us a heartful path to helping ourselves, and our relationship with our Mother Earth. But healing is more than just drinking tea; it starts with heartful intentions, and changes within and without.

lindasu - When not working in the library, I draw, paint, digitally restore old photographs, read *everything* and study the Wise Woman Tradition as one of Susun's S & P correspondence students. I'm passionate about art, animals, weeds, yoga, martial arts and cooking. I live in Pennsylvania with my soul-mate, Brni, second son, Jesse, our sweet dog, Loki, Milo the red lored amazon, The Dove, and Spike, the hibiscus-eating iguana.
luvmama - Bright Blessings! I am Shawna, attached mama and lactating acrobat to two wild boys. I enjoy hanging out with my goats, gardening, wildcrafting, homesteading, soapmaking, sitting in the sauna, and collecting Bantie eggs. I am a green witch on the Wise Woman path, and feel honored to be a part of this forum.
lynpb - After 15 years as an Executive Assistant, and motivated by the birth of my daughter, I decided to start a Virtual Assistant practice in order to spend as much time as possible with her. Now Executive Stress Office Support (eSOS) has clients in three States of Australia and on both coasts of the USA. I live in Brisbane (Queensland, Australia) with my DH of 16 years, my daughter, our dog, cat, guinea pig and two goldfish! Being a pagan in the corporate world is not easy. I was blessed when Justine found me on the web - I never knew I was called a Green Witch till now!! I continue to learn and grow through my association with her and Susun, and this forum!
