ABOUT THE EPISODE You learn lessons in self-development from a lot of sources. Books, webinars, podcasts like this one…but have you looked to your garden for ways to grow? According to our guest today, caring for your plants may be one of the best ways to learn to better care for yourself.
In this episode, we’re joined by TIKTOK’S most popular gardener, Marcus Bridgewater. Marcus is a creator, educator, motivational speaker, and plant enthusiast. He is the personality behind Garden Marcus on social media, which demonstrates that a positive, knowledgeable approach to nurturing plants also helps us grow as people.

He shares knowledge from the plant world that teaches us about ourselves and opens our eyes to what we can achieve.
What We Discuss with Marcus: Caring for plants and people is a similar experience - can’t make them grow but can create an environment for growth. Every choice matters and leads to the next We are affected by what surrounds us - the people, the environment etc Mindfulness/slowing down is essential Focus on step-by-step growth to filter out the noise and stay in the now Grounding - we have a lot physically in common with the earth - find ways to connect with it physically (barefoot, gardening, natural water source). Helps you really see what’s there rather than the mess in your head Begin with what inspires you - not just a great gardening tip but a tip for life And don’t let the conversation end there.
