Houseplant Homebody
Welcome all plant lovers, plant experts, plant enthusiasts and beginners! I am so excited to share my adventures with all things plants! I am not an expert but join me in my ongoing journey of slowly becoming an expert! I have been passionate about all things plants for YEARS. With everything that I have explored on social media or plant websites I realized there seems to be TWO THING MISSING... a US Midwestern perspective in the amazing world of social media outlets, podcasts or blogs AND just straight, no fluff plant info. I am a proud Wisconsinite and we have a different and somewhat complicated environment for growing houseplants & plants! BUT just because we have a different environment doesn’t mean we can’t learn from the experts on the East and West coasts or around the world! Want to join my adventure? Then FOLLOW Houseplant Homebody on Instagram and Facebook and go follow my personal plant inspirations on Pinterest. You can find me at ALL of those places @houseplanthomebodyllc. And DON’T FORGET to get involved! Comment on posts or pictures, ask me questions, provide your best plant advice or tag @houseplanthomebodyllc in your posts or comments. There is so much to learn in the plant world and I want to encourage everyone to soak it up! Houseplant Homebody is the best community for ALL THINGS PLANTS.

Fear thrives in silence and confusion. Ana Navarro rejects both. Her voice is an antidote to today’s chaos. Her new podcast, Bleep! with Ana Navarro, takes on today’s most pressing issues with the voices most connected to it: decision-makers, political leaders, cultural shapers, and people on the frontlines of the story. The conversations acknowledge the emotions we all feel—despair, sadness, fear— but emerge with knowledge, perspective, and hope. The belief is simple: fearless dialogue can transform fear into courage, and courage into change. When fear dominates the headlines, this show digs deeper. Because information, debate, and conversation don’t just ease fear, they give us power to shape the future.
