In this week’s episode of the Midwifery Wisdom Podcast, host Shiphrah Israel sits down with Zaire Sabb—Clinical Herbalist, Traditional Midwife, Registered Nurse, and founder of Mystic Momma Herbals.
Zaire shares her remarkable journey from pediatric cardiac transplant nursing to apprenticing with grand midwives in Georgia and herbal masters in Nigeria, weaving together clinical knowledge, traditional midwifery, and holistic herbalism. She discusses the vital difference between community herbalists and clinical herbalists, how unresolved emotions can manifest physically in the body, and why reclaiming herbal wisdom is essential for reproductive health and sovereignty.
We also dive into her new book, Herbal Harmony: A Comprehensive Guide to Using Herbs to Help with Reproductive Health, which empowers readers to better understand their bodies, advocate for themselves in medical spaces, and pass on generational wisdom to their families.
✨ Topics we cover:
- The path from allopathic nursing to traditional midwifery
- What sets a clinical herbalist apart from community herbalism
- The role of emotions, trauma, and lifestyle in reproductive health
- Everyday herbs growing in your own backyard
- Practical steps to begin your herbal journey
- How Herbal Harmony helps bridge the gap between patients and providers
