In this honest and empowering episode, I sit down with Candice Mason, founder of Mother Cuppa, to explore how her early health struggles led to a deep connection with plant medicine, and how that journey now supports thousands of women navigating midlife and menopause.
From being diagnosed with endometriosis as a teenager to experiencing medically induced menopause at 20, Candice shares how she rebuilt her wellbeing and self-trust through herbal rituals, lifestyle shifts, and listening to her body in a way she never had before.
Whether you’re curious about adaptogens, herbal teas, or simply need permission to slow down and tune in, this episode offers wisdom, warmth and practical tools to help you feel more like yourself again.
