Why the Best Thing You Can Do is Touch Grass: Earth Month w/ Emma Terrell

On this episode we chat with Emma Terrell aka The Urban Botanist is a biologist, entrepreneur, and nature educator right here in Ottawa who's spent the last nine years helping people reconnect with the natural world.We get into her story - going from political science to biology, working as a flight attendant while finishing her degree, and building a business that exploded during the pandemic. We talk about what it actually means to run a business that works with nature instead of against it, why most "eco-friendly" branding is surface level, and what real sustainability looks like when you're scaling.We also get into why we're all so disconnected from nature, what it's doing to our health, the case for growing your own food, and how something as simple as one houseplant can start to shift things. Plus Dylan and Emma discover they're both obsessed with salamanders and it kind of derails everything in the best way.Join us on the journey to finding your bliss. ✨Follow along on socials @anandaelixirsDiscover Shroom Soda® at anandaelixirs.comFind Emma at @theurbanbotanist and https://theurbanbotanist.ca/
