Today is World Outlander Day 🪨🌿🧺

What is that, you ask? A day to celebrate the series that means so much to so many fans. That may seem silly, but this show seems to have had such a profound effect on so many people's lives... And I'm one of them.

The series came to its finale just recently after 10 years. I actually felt a great sense of loss after watching the last episode. The end of an era. It might sound cheesy, but this series literally shaped my current life.

So for those who don't already know, here's my Outlander Story:

Oak and Wildflower would not exist if it hadn't been for Outlander. My love for this show brought me to Scotland, as a visitor. I was travelling solo. During that trip I was on a tour of the Isle of Skye and my tour guide offered to set me up on a date with one of his colleagues, named Jamie 😉, a tall red-headed (well red-bearded) Scot who he said was also an Outlander fan and he thought we would get on well. I was hesitant at first, but I decided to give it a go. A few days later I went on an Outlander tour, and then that evening I met Jamie for the first time, in Edinburgh. We hit it off immediately. So well in fact, that two months later I was back in Scotland after giving up my apartment in Canada, and selling a lot of my things to move to Scotland.
A year later (2019) we were married and had a daughter (yes things maybe moved a little too fast 😂).

I had already started learning about plant medicine while I was in Canada, thanks again to Outlander sparking this interest in me (the main character Claire is a healer who uses many "wee herbs"). But once I moved to Scotland and especially during lockdown this interest grew and I became passionate about foraging and working with local plants. I realised very quickly this was my life path. I took more courses and in 2022 I ran my first workshops and my business was born 🙂

Had I not started watching Outlander all those years ago, where would I be now? Would I have come to Scotland, met my husband, had my daughter and become a community herbalist? Who's to say. But I know I'm very happy things worked out the way they did 😊💚🌿

Every year working with mostly women I gain a deeper understanding and respect for womankind, and realise just how underestimated we are!

Women carry within them a strength, a brilliant power, that when they access it and believe in themselves they're truly unstoppable!

So thank you to all the wild women who are in my life and cross my path even briefly. You keep me realising that this is the work I'm meant to be doing, and I'm meant to be doing it to serve you 🙏🏻

Nature blessings and Happy International Women's Day 🩷
