If you have specific questions about herbs, I'm your gal! Hi! HerbGirl here, your Modern Internet Herbalist! I've studied herbs passionately for over 30 years, including professional training regarding the use of over 500 herbs. I have degrees in cellular and molecular biology & health science and am trained in nutricogenomics and telomere genetic testing. I own a retail apothecary and consultation business wherein I create custom, holistic protocols and curate unique, herbal blends to address root imbalances or compensate for select, gene SNP-mediated, enzymatic deficiencies. I do not participate in any "New Age" practices. I address soul-centered and spiritual health concerns, including deliverance needs, according to biblical scripture. The 5 questions below are examples of "safety & efficacy" questions about a specific herb that can be answered with a quick text or audio response. If you prefer an elaborated response or have a question that requires more of an explanation, please select the video option. For example, "What helps heal a leaky gut?" or "What herbs are good for ____?" These types of questions require a lengthier response than many realize! Inquiries that pertain to a complex or multi-faceted situation will likely require a conversation via video call or subsequent text/video inquiries. Thank you, and I look forward to answering your questions!

My mission in water management and desalination is to address some of the world's most urgent issues. My journey began with a Bachelor of Business Administration (BBA) and a Master of Business Administration (MBA) in Marketing. These degrees equipped me with skills in strategic planning, market analysis, and product development, which have been crucial throughout my career. As a government advisor in Central Asia, I engaged in policy development and implementation for water management and desalination projects. Navigating complex regulatory environments, building international partnerships, and leading initiatives significantly improved water security and sustainability in the region. This experience provided unique insights into the intersection of public policy and technological innovation in resource management. Product development has been a core focus of my career. I have successfully led numerous projects from concept to market launch, striving for the highest standards of efficiency and effectiveness. My work spans technical product design and strategic planning necessary to secure funding and investment. I have raised substantial capital for various ventures, demonstrating my ability to communicate a compelling vision and build strong relationships with stakeholders. Water diplomacy is another passion driving my work. I believe water resources are fundamental to geopolitical stability and international cooperation. I have been involved in diplomatic efforts to promote equitable water distribution and resolve conflicts, using my expertise to facilitate discussions and negotiate beneficial agreements for all parties. I hold a Master of Science in Higher Education Administration with a concentration in AI and Blockchain. This degree has given me a robust understanding of how emerging technologies can transform educational landscapes and improve learning outcomes. Currently, I am pursuing a doctorate in Public Administration, focusing on AI and Blockchain policy. My research explores the regulatory frameworks and governance models necessary to harness these technologies for public good. My interest in AI and Blockchain extends beyond academia. I have been involved in initiatives integrating these technologies into water management and desalination processes. AI can optimize water usage, predict shortages, and enhance the efficiency of desalination plants. Blockchain technology offers transparency and security in water resource management, ensuring data integrity and accessibility for all stakeholders. Throughout my career, I have been driven by a vision of sustainable and equitable water resource management. I am committed to leveraging my expertise in water management, product development, and technological innovation to make this vision a reality. I am here to lend my experience and consulting services to those who need help, continuing to contribute to this

While in the hospital, I created a philosophy that I had already taught my students. That philosophy is principles that will work in business or life. I call it the S.W.I.M. philosophy.  S. Standing for serious, you must be serious to achieve success learn to set goals and accomplish those goals. W. Stands for you must want to win. That does not mean you have to come in first place, but you must want to be better than where you are now. I. Stands for inspiration, you must self inspire yourself sometimes as we do not always feel like doing what needs to be done. When you have your goals written down, you will learn to do something each day which will become less and less of a chore. M. Stands for motivation, simply by being there on the days you do not wish to that will motivate both you and your teammates to do more and set their goals higher than they thought ever possible. The SWIM philosophy, our principles that got me out of the hospital and into this exciting world of entrepreneurship. Despite the fact, I had already built three companies I was still just a local service provider. My pool is now the world.
