Clinical Herbalism Education & Mentorship
Herbs & Wellness Coaching with Erika Galentin MNIMH RH
Host of the Herbal Practice Connexion
At home in Athens, OH but serving and supporting an international community. Wellness is more than the absence of ill-health, it is a personal journey and state-of-mind that must be cultivated from within. We offer herbal consultations, workshops, and other education services to support, guide, and empower you all along the way...

Collaboration is regularly defined as a joint effort between multiple individuals or groups to accomplish a certain goal…to create co-creatively. There is a perspective, or worldview, within collaborative efforts that ‘we are stronger together’

As clinical herbalists and entrepreneurs, the need for collaboration shows up in the relationships we build and endeavor to maintain with our clients, other professionals and businesses, and of course, our herbalist colleagues.

What are the members saying about Herbal Practice Connexion?

☀️ HPX has been exactly the support I've needed with my clinical practice, providing community, educational workshops, and a wealth of resources. I could not be happier with my decision to join HPX.

☀️ There are other herbal business communities out there, but this one by far, has more actionable deliverables, quality seasoned and knowledgeable presenters, is personable among the other members, and affordable all in one. If I am going to invest my money in a community-based membership, I want to know I am getting value out of it. HPX delivers endless value!

☀️ As a RN, I am used to having a community of peers to share my experiences and to ask for support. I have been really missing that as an herbalist, until I found HPX! I can feel my confidence growing with the encouragement and additional training and education I receive in this community. My practice is elevated, I am more inspired, and I feel connected to a network of peers. It has been a wonderful addition to my work and my life.

If you’re thinking this sounds like the community for you, check out the 🔗 in my bio for more about HPX and a video from me about the community!

If collaboration was actually as easy as English definitions insist that it is, why can it often present such a challenge in our professional lives?

Perhaps it is because collaboration is not just about the ideas and actions we contribute to a project or outcome, it is also how we make those we are collaborating with feel about their own roles and contributions.

These new, poignant reflections reach beyond my personal notions of professionalism as a sacred inner dialogue and moral compass. I have learned that from certain perspectives professionalism becomes less about the actions and acts of individuals and more about a profession, as a whole, committing to collective responsibilities. But most importantly, I have also come to see (and better yet articulate) professionalism as a belief system and social contract that has the capacity to both empower and oppress...
