Overview
My name is Brittney Brown, and I am the owner and #207herbalist of Wildly 207, LLC. A commercially licensed, woman owned, small batch, hand-crafted herbal goods business with a focus on wholesale. I am a Certified Herbalist with 800 hours of didactic and scientific professional clinical Herbalist education from Heart of Herbs Herbal School, as well as ongoing studies in herbalism. I live in the beautiful foothills of Western Maine with my husband and love of my life for the last twenty-one years, I have three wonderful children, 21, 18, and 17, and 3 beloved dogs.
My herbal business was created in 2018, but I’ve been studying and creating herbal remedies for myself, friends, and family for quite a few years now. Healing and how the body works has always fascinated me. I worked in our small, rural hospital for several years, as well as our local nursing home.
Unfortunately my nursing career was halted when I was diagnosed in 2011 with a few autoimmune diseases, one of which is Ankylosing Spondylitis, an incurable autoimmune disease that makes your immune system attack your whole body, primarily affecting the spinal cord, but also your other organs. It causes widespread inflammation, chronic, severe pain, and possible fusion of the neck, spine, ribs, and hips.
I was in endless pain, day and night. I was put on low dose chemotherapy treatments to try and slow down the progression of my disease. The medications and side effects were awful! I was eventually up to 23 pharmaceuticals, including muscle relaxers and opiates trying to control my constant spasms and pain. I was so lost and hopeless. I was mainly bedridden or used a cane to get around. I ended up in the emergency room with a temporarily paralyzed GI system from all the medications I was taking. I knew I needed to make some serious changes!
In 2014, I began trying to take back my life from the pharmaceutical industry. I spent a lot of time researching how to manage my symptoms naturally, experimenting with different plants around me, and
working with a local herbalist. I weaned off all pharmaceuticals. I learned to manage my autoimmune diseases holistically. I saw what a dramatic change this had on my own health and life, so that’s where this firey passion for helping others stems from! I want to see YOU breakfree from the hamster wheel and learn to trust yourself, as well as the plant medicine all around us! Our bodies are capable of so much more than we give them credit for. I have poured my heart, soul, and energy into this business, ideas, and my products to help others who were once hopeless like I was find freedom!
