Episode 218
Wednesday, 11 February, 2026
In this episode of the Plant Cunning Podcast, hosts AC and Isaac Hill are joined by Amelia South, known as "the No BS Herbalist." Amelia shares her journey into the world of plants and natural healing, inspired by the birth of her daughter and her early experiences with herbs. She delves into her practical approach to herbalism, emphasizing the importance of understanding the root causes of health issues, rather than just addressing symptoms with herbs. Amelia introduces her latest book, 'Think Like an Herbalist,' a practical guide aimed at those looking to deepen their understanding of herbalism and natural health practices without becoming professional herbalists. The conversation also touches on her upcoming book focused on mental health and subconscious healing, and the importance of mental wellbeing for both practitioners and clients. Tune in for a rich discussion on plant wisdom, personal healing journeys, and the intersection of physical, mental, and emotional health.00:00 Introduction to the Plant Cunning Podcast00:34 Meet Amelia South: The No BS Herbalist03:38 Amelia's Journey into Herbalism06:45 Teaching and Foraging Adventures12:24 Amelia's Cookbook and Bone Broth Tips33:10 Healing the Gut: Cabbage and Beyond40:10 Understanding the Root of Addiction41:23 The Role of the Subconscious Mind in Healing43:28 Client Consultations and Setting Boundaries44:29 The Importance of Willingness in Healing47:09 Addressing Deep-Seated Beliefs49:18 The Challenge of Helping Others01:07:28 Balancing Personal and Professional Life01:14:19 Streamlining Communication and Services01:17:48 Future Plans and Final Thoughts
