I’ve been practicing herbalism and making natural remedies for over five years — mostly for myself, my home, and my family. But now that I have a baby, this passion has taken on a whole new meaning. ☀️

I’m so excited to start building a baby-safe, non-toxic herbal medicine cabinet just for him — filled with gentle, plant-based remedies I trust.

This series “Cater’s Cabinet” is my way of documenting the process — starting with this calendula-infused oil, which I’ll use as a base for balms, rash oils, and other healing recipes to come. 🌿

I’m not claiming to know it all — I’m just sharing what I’ve learned and what I’m creating as a new mama who deeply values natural care. If you’re on a similar journey, I hope this resonates with you. 🌼

Things I’m Practicing to Become a Calmer Woman
Lately, I’ve realized that becoming a calmer woman isn’t about being perfect—it’s about being intentional. Growth isn’t always loud. Sometimes it looks like patience, self-control, and giving yourself room to slow down. What’s one thing you’re practicing in this season of your life? 🌷
