The Face Behind the Chart Series: Heather Fairfield

For Her, With Love

We have a really beautiful episode for you this week in our Face Behind the Chart series as we sit down with Heather Fairfield, a registered herbalist, educator, and retired midwife! In this interview, we get to look through both sides of the glass as Heather shares her personal experience with cycle charting and body literacy, and how those experiences shaped her professional career and the way she supports her clients today. Heather is especially passionate about educating young girls about the beautiful way our bodies are designed, and her enthusiasm is absolutely contagious. She recognizes the incredible capacity young women have to absorb this information and the empowerment that comes from understanding how their bodies work. What a gift to be introduced to this knowledge early in life! Heather’s story reminds us that, just as in the natural world, life unfolds in seasons—and so does our experience of womanhood. We are intuitive and receptive by design, and the beauty of this tapestry is woven not only through our monthly cycles but across the whole lifespan, from the first onset of puberty to post-menopause. Each season is intricately woven into the next. How we care for and support ourselves in one season can shape the one that follows. There is a beautiful continuity to our womanhood, and Heather invites us to appreciate the wisdom and wonder of every phase. As a herbalist, Heather seamlessly returns our attention to the incredible resources that can grow right in our own backyards or in a pot on the windowsill. She reminds us that we were created to live in a garden, and that often, that is the very place to look for vitality and healing: body, mind and soul. This conversation is a beautiful invitation to reconnect with the natural world, embrace the seasons of our bodies, and discover the wisdom woven into our design. We hope you enjoy this episode as much as we did! 🌿 Want to learn more about Heather? Visit her website: www.fairfieldherbals.com
