Ep. 36 Healing the Natural Way with Akilah Scott-Amos
Fri Jan 03 2025
In this episode I speak with the CEO of Kissed by a Bee Organics, Akilah Scott-Amos about herbalism, rootwork, urban farming and how she's using the earth and nature's gifts to help others heal.
Akilah comes from generations of rootworkers and sharecroppers; she learned most of her knowledge about the healing powers of plants via her Grandmother (LeDora) and Father (William). Born and raised as a vegetarian, most of her meals were made from scratch and grown right on the family property. Many plants and roots were grown to nourish the body, but also heal ailments as well. She decided to start Kissed By A Bee Organics in May 2013, with the support of her husband and friends.
Akilah also has several certifications in herbalism and is constantly honing her craft. She, along with her family, utilize their 4-acre farm by growing roughly 75% of what she uses in the products. She lives in Manvel, TX with her two sons (Alex and Aiden), her husband (Christopher), 3 dogs (Chad, Aza and Ashe) and a cat named Horus.
