I've said it once and I'll say it again - succulents ae BAD houseplants! I really mean that. I am speaking in broad terms here but take heart in knowing that just because you've "killed a succulent" doesn't mean you are doomed to be a plant killer! It just means that a succulent, or that particular succulent, wasn't a good ft for you or the growing conditions your home provides. In this episode I'll cover: https://dustyhegge.com/quiz Follow on Instagram:...

So you know grow lights can help your houseplants grow but do you know how they work? And did you know that not all "grow lights" are created equally? Just because a light says that it's a grow light doesn't necessarily mean it will facilitate your houseplants in growing well. This is why I've brought the founders of Soltech Solutions onto the show to dive DEEP into grow lights. This conversation is such a rich one and I know you're going to enjoy it! I personally ADORE my aspect light from...

Self-care. What a trendy word. Don’t get me wrong, I am grateful for parts of it! But like an overgrown garden, I think we’ve all gotten a little carried away and there is some weeding that needs to be done. What I believe started as a very important message of “You are allowed to have fun, to eat good food, to invest personal growth, in your hobbies, and the little things that make you so happy has turned into a frighteningly deceptive half-truth. One that seems shiny and lovely and...

Poinsettias are the number one potted plant sold in the US with over $250 million made annually. 80% of the people who purchase them are women and I would wager to guess that 99% of those poinsettias are tossed in the trash come February (that statistic is 100% made up based on my own personal experience…...of throwing them away every year!) Because they are difficult to grow indoors! I have heard people tell me they are easy and some people tell me they are difficult. After spending the...

Healing from trauma and pain isn't all that different from growing. The two go hand in hand.

The story of how this episode came to be is a good one in and of itself! Hannah has undergone...

This episode is directly from Get Planty Course in the Growth Mindset module. Here is an excerpt: "When we come into contact with great art, we don’t say, “Look at what this piece of art made!” That would be ridiculous. Even saying that sentence out loud, it doesn’t make sense. Instead, we say, “Who made this incredible painting? I bet she worked so hard to create it. It’s beautiful!.” Then we look at it. We soak it up. We let that piece of art sink in, and we start to feel all the emotions...
