In this episode of Food is Freedom, Sienna Mae Heath sits down with Liam Gray, founder of the Wilberforce Institute, a public policy think tank advocating for the rights of farmers and animals. Together, they explore food policy and the rapidly shifting future of what we eat — from the struggles facing small farmers to the strange promise and unanswered questions of lab-grown meat. This conversation digs into where Big Ag falls short, and how consumers and communities can reclaim choice, health, and dignity — like gardeners restoring depleted soil. A grounded, hopeful dialogue on cultivating freedom in our food systems and planting a more humane future, together.

In this episode of Food is Freedom, Sienna Mae Heath sits down once again with Michael Pickens — CEO of Botanical Enlightenment, a holistic supplement company offering natural alternatives for people and dogs fighting cancer. Michael is also the author of The Liberated Mind, a guide to freeing ourselves from limiting beliefs in every area of life.

Building on part one, where they explored natural versus modern medicine, CBD and THC’s therapeutic uses, and the healing potential of pumpkins and mushrooms, this conversation goes deeper into the philosophy behind holistic healing. Together, they unpack how natural medicine places freedom over fear, how it can uplift mental health and reshape mindset, and what inspired Michael to pursue entrepreneurship in the wellness world.
