Root 2 Rise Wellness

Root 2 Rise Wellness Empowering women to heal their gut, sleep deeply, and stress less—so they can reclaim energy and joy.

02/09/2026

Most people feel completely maxed out these days — like they just can’t handle one more thing on their plate.

That’s exactly why I created this virtual herbalism course — and why it actually works.

✨ It’s self-paced.
No rigid schedule. No pressure to “keep up.”
You can learn in the mornings, at night, on weekends — whenever your life allows.

🌿 And the best part? It’s relational.
You’re not just watching videos alone.
There’s a plant chat forum I moderate, space to ask questions, connect with others, and live classes where you get to connect directly with me.

Plants ground us.
They regulate our nervous systems.
And in a season where everything feels rushed, loud, and disconnected, learning about plants is a powerful way to come back to yourself.

🌱 We begin March 1st.
This is for busy moms, busy humans, caregivers, and anyone craving something supportive instead of overwhelming.

Join us.
Your nervous system will thank you.

Good morning ☀️
I’m outside getting my morning sunlight, sipping an herbal gut brew, and sharing something that might challenge what you’ve been told about gut healing.

For a long time, I believed restrictive diets were the answer. But cutting out more and more foods didn’t heal my digestion—it actually made things more complicated.

In this video + blog, I talk about why elimination diets aren’t always the solution, how the nervous system plays a huge role in digestion, and what actually supported my gut healing long-term.

⚠️ Fair warning: my perspective is a bit controversial and rooted in personal experience.

If you’ve dealt with bloating, reflux, food sensitivities, or poor sleep, this may resonate 💛

Your gut isn’t broken, and it isn’t betraying you — it’s communicating.

This free starter kit helps you understand what’s going on with a leaky gut quiz, a body-based reflection, and simple steps to support digestion and nervous system regulation.

It is possible to go from feeling at war with your gut to living in harmony with it.

I help women understand why their body feels off — and how to bring it back into balance.

If anyone knows sleep… it’s me.

My struggles started young.
I remember being in high school, calling out in the middle of the night:
“Daddy, I can’t sleep.”
He’d come in, tuck me back in, and tell me to count slowly until sleep found me.

College was the hardest. I went an entire semester barely sleeping at all — hallucinating at times — yet somehow still graduating magna cm laude. The pressure I put on myself for an A was intense… and looking back, completely unsustainable.

Things are much better now.
But every once in a while, insomnia still shows up like a sudden windstorm — unexpected and disruptive.

Is my sleep perfect? No.
But now I have tools. I understand my nervous system. I know how to support my body instead of fighting it. Before, I was disconnected and lost. Now, I’m resourced.

If you want to sleep deeply, feel light in your body, regulate your digestion (yes—perfect poops matter), and wake up with real energy, this is the work I do with women over 40.

I just published two new blog posts on sleep and healing through the nervous system:
✨ When Sleep Wouldn’t Come: Healing Insomnia Through the Nervous System
✨ Sleep: The Foundation of Healing (Jaw, Nervous System & Beyond)

The world feels loud right now — between the political noise and the winter storm outside ❄️
So I’m choosing something softer… cozier… more grounding.

I’m sipping on a gut-healing herbal tea and inviting my nervous system (and digestion) to exhale ☕🌿

Plants have a beautiful way of reminding us that healing doesn’t have to be complicated — it can be slow, warm, and deeply supportive.

Hi guys 🌿
This is me with a bunch of goldenrod in the background.

Goldenrod is the plant that picked me during herb school, where I did a deep dive project on her. I made goldenrod + turmeric scones (gluten-, dairy-, and refined sugar–free… and still delicious 😋), crafted a beautiful goldenrod honey for sore throats, created a goldenrod flower essence to support self-esteem, an oil for sore muscles, and yes—we even sang a song in class about her many benefits.

Goldenrod supports allergies, immunity, and kidney health, but beyond that… she became personal.

Now, whenever I see goldenrod, I feel an instant connection. I know her magic. I say hello. 💛

This is the kind of relationship you build in my classes—forming real bonds with plants you may have walked past your whole life, whether in your backyard or on a street corner.

If you’re ready to slow down, learn plant medicine, and create your own connections, join us in an in-person or virtual class.
Who knows which plant might choose you? 🌿✨

Swipe for goldenrod magic.

🌿 Feeling bloated, gassy, or dealing with reflux?

Your gut and nervous system are connected — and sometimes it’s not just what you eat, but how your body responds that matters.

An alkaline balance can help calm your digestion, reduce inflammation, and support your overall wellness — naturally. Think leafy greens, plant-based foods, and soothing herbs, paired with simple lifestyle habits like hydration, mindful eating, and gentle stress relief.

✨ Small shifts, big impact. Your gut will thank you!

Ever feel like your digestion is “off”… even when you’re eating well?

Bloating, reflux, constipation, anxiety around food, emotional eating, or that wired-but-tired feeling are often blamed on what we eat.

But for many women, the deeper issue is how safe the body feels.

When the nervous system is stuck in stress mode (fight-or-flight), digestion can’t fully do its job. And the tricky part? Most people don’t even realize this is happening.

I wrote a new blog that explains:
• Why digestion and anxiety are so closely connected
• How being stuck in stress can quietly affect your gut
• Why meditation doesn’t always help when the body feels unsafe
• A gentle, 3-minute practice to support digestion and calm the nervous system

This isn’t about fixing yourself or pushing through.
It’s about helping your body feel safe enough to heal.

✨ Reflux doesn’t just affect digestion—it can ripple through the whole body.

One of my clients recently worked with her prescribing physician to safely reduce her use of PPIs over three months, while also supporting her digestive system with lifestyle changes and gentle herbal support.

One of the key plant allies we used? Marshmallow root 🌱
This soothing, demulcent herb has a long tradition of supporting the esophagus, throat, and gut lining—especially when reflux has been irritating tissues for a long time.

In my latest blog post, I share:
✔️ What unaddressed reflux can lead to (beyond heartburn)
✔️ Why gut support matters for long-term comfort
✔️ How marshmallow root works and how it’s traditionally prepared
✔️ Why this is supportive care, not a replacement for medical treatment

If you’re navigating reflux and want to understand natural, holistic ways to support digestive wellness, I invite you to read more here:

💚 As always, this work is about supporting the body with natural tools to maintain balance.
