## Resource

Registration is now open for the 36th Annual AHG Symposium, taking place August 14–16, 2026, in Black Mountain, North Carolina. This year's event features more than 30 presentations from leading herbalists, a keynote address by Patricia Kyritsi Howell, and programming centered around the theme "Facilitating Regulation: The Role of Clinical Herbalism in Autoimmunity & Chronic Conditions." LEARN MORE & REGISTER In this clip, we dive deep into a philosophical question every entrepreneur faces: competition versus collaboration. We break down the toxicity of the "scarcity mentality" in business, how it impacts our clients' healing journeys, and why showing up with vulnerability and authenticity is what actually draws people to your work. Plus, a huge shout-out to Camille Freeman and the power of lifting each other up in the botanical medicine community!
