If you've been feeling it—that pull toward food as medicine, that knowing that there's deeper wisdom waiting for you, that curiosity about TCM, Ayurveda, and ancestral wisdom that won't quiet down—this gathering is for you.
Maybe you've been healing yourself for years and are ready for structured guidance. Maybe you're already a wellness practitioner who knows there's more to learn. Maybe you watched someone you love struggle with illness and felt the heartbreak of conventional medicine's blind spots around nutrition. Maybe you're an engineer dreaming of a different path, or a cook who wants to understand the why behind the healing, or a parent determined to create a different foundation for your family.
Whatever brought you here, you're not alone.
On February 4th, just before our course begins and before the lunar new year arrives, our faculty are gathering over tea to share something we don't usually have time for in formal presentations: the honest stories of what led us to this work, what we got wrong along the way, and what we wish we'd known sooner.
You'll hear from:
Patricia on discovering your calling and dissolving what's in the way
Roger on longevity principles that have sustained cultures for millennia
Inga on the alchemy of cooking and Chinese medicine
Nam Singh on Daoist healing practices (via special video message)
Letha on Ayurveda and constitutional balance
Eden on building a sustainable business that doesn't burn you out
This isn't a polished pitch. It's practitioners who live what they teach, sharing the turning points that changed everything—for their health, their purpose, their understanding of what healing actually means.
If you've been curious about our program but wanted to feel the essence of who we are before committing... if you're tired of surface-level wellness education and hungry for the depth of traditional medicine... if you're standing at your own threshold, sensing it might be time to take the leap...
Pour yourself some tea. Join us. See if what we offer resonates with what you're seeking.
Brief program overview and Q&A to follow for those interested in joining our February cohort.
