I’ve come to empower. I’ve come to fully embrace the women who walks the path that her intuition tells her and stick around to document it and share the stories.

Ever since I can remember I’ve pushed back against the societal normalities that didn’t make sense to me. This publication is for verge conversation, for ways that I have found myself through my life experiences, my quest for understanding my brain and body, the food systems, big phrama, plant medicine, homesteadings, my great love to my soon to be husband, my craving for community, old world wisdom, communication, Chinese medicine, nutrition, and most simply, taking what I have learned and putting it in one place for others to hopefully find support.

Welcome to the newest extension of my brain, I’m glad you’re here.

For those new to me, my name is Cassandra Posey. I am the owner and founder of a beautiful company I have been nurturing for the past 6 years called Cognitive Function. CF was built as a life raft, a means of survival, a quest for further self-knowledge, as a way to try and get off the giant cruise ship most of our civilization is onboard of. I had to escape. I had to find myself, I had to understand the meaning of why I am here, I had to free myself. To read more about my story click here.

Oh, and I also host the PNW Mushroom & Permaculture Gathering called Myceliate, my goal is to give community members a platform to story tell, share skills and knowledge and bring ecological literacy to the forefront, we are family friendly and are meant for all ages. To learn more about the gathering, click here.

P.S. This level of intimacy with strangers is scary to me. I am sharing in an effort to find clarity in my own mind but to also help and inspire those who find meaning in it. Please be gentle and remember I am a real human with real feelings. Your opinion is your own, we don’t have to agree to find respect for each others perspectives, experiences and humanism.
