ABOUT THIS PODCAST
The Collective Perspective is a podcast for people who want to grow. Grow in how they think, live, serve, and contribute to the world around them.
Hosted by Jeff Aldrich and Travis Eadens, we dive into everyday battles we all face: identity, purpose, burnout, anxiety, faith, unity, character, digital overload, and staying resilient in a divided society.
We explore mindsets and habits that shape our choices. We talk about taking ownership of our attitudes and actions. We focus on becoming better husbands, parents, friends, and neighbors.
We learn to think for ourselves, communicate well, and build stronger communities by starting with the person in the mirror.
Some episodes highlight everyday Americans and the real work they do to make this country stronger. Every conversation is centered on learning from real life and learning from real people. We share both challenges and victories that help us become people others can rely on.

Ritual Over Rush
How Head Plant Is Redefining Modern Wellness
In a world obsessed with speed, productivity, and burnout, this episode of The Collective Perspective Podcast invites listeners to slow down and reconnect—with their bodies, their routines, and nature itself. Hosts Jeff Aldrich and Travis Eadens sit down with Mindy Stamulis, founder of Head Plant, for a grounded and enlightening conversation about ritual self-care, plant medicine, and building a wellness brand with intention.
Here is a summary of the main concepts discussed on this episode:
Head Plant Is a Practice, Not Just a Product
From the start, Mindy makes it clear — Head Plant isn’t about trends. It’s about ritual. Her plant-powered, small-batch CBD products are designed to support daily moments of care, from scalp and skin health to overall balance. Every product is handcrafted on-site, ensuring quality, purity, and purpose remain at the core.
From Personal Need to Purpose-Driven Brand
Mindy’s journey began with nearly 30 years in cosmetology and a personal struggle with scalp health. What started as a solution to dandruff and irritation evolved into a deeper exploration of medical herbalism and alternative medicine. That education transformed Head Plant into a brand rooted in both lived experience and science-backed formulation.
Building a CBD Brand the Hard Way
Jeff and Travis guide the conversation into the realities of entrepreneurship in the CBD space — banking limitations, marketing restrictions, and constant regulatory hurdles. Mindy speaks candidly about navigating those challenges while staying true to her values. Her persistence is a reminder that meaningful businesses aren’t built overnight — they’re grown with patience.
Why CBD and Plant Medicine Matter
At the heart of Head Plant is a simple principle: reduce inflammation so the body can heal itself. Mindy breaks down how CBD works in harmony with the body and why topical and ingestible plant-based remedies can play a powerful role in wellness routines.
Handcrafted Healing, Rooted in Community
Listeners get a behind-the-scenes look at Head Plant’s product line — salves, emollients, and nutrient-rich blends crafted for specific healing purposes. Looking ahead, Mindy shares plans to grow the brand through community-focused collaborations with barbers, chiropractors, and wellness professionals, without losing the local roots that inspired it all.
Final Thoughts: Slow Down
This episode is a reminder that wellness isn’t about doing more — it’s about doing things with intention. Head Plant’s story encourages listeners to rethink self-care as a ritual, not a luxury.
