Honoring the Seasons of Life

There are seasons in our lives when everything blooms effortlessly: energy, clarity, inspiration. And then there are seasons when the ground goes still, when we are asked to slow down, retreat, and listen.

A Quiet Season of Winter

These past two years have been that kind of winter for me. Caring for sick loved ones while tending to my own health challenges brought me to my knees at times. It was humbling, quiet, and deeply human. Yet in that stillness, new roots were quietly and patiently forming beneath the surface, even when I could not yet see them.

How Taking Root Began

When I first created Taking Root, it came from both curiosity and catharsis. It was part healing, part proving, and a way to find meaning in my health challenges. I can see now that my own expectations were woven into that creation, as they often are when we are shaping new work and trying to make sense of what we feel called to offer.

True coaching is about meeting you exactly where you are, and walking with you as you remember your own wisdom.

Coaching That Follows Your Wisdom

Over time, life has softened that edge. I have come to understand that my ego is my responsibility to tend. True coaching is not about having all the answers. It is about the person sitting across from me, their pace, and their lived experience. The times my clients have experienced the greatest success have been when I follow their wisdom, honor their timing, and let them lead. The more space I give, the deeper their growth becomes.

Being Present Is Enough

Again and again, I am reminded that being present, grounded, and deeply human is enough. My role is not to fix you, but to hold space while you reconnect with what you already know about your body, your life, and your next right step. That is where the real shifts happen, not in perfection, but in honest, compassionate attention to your current season.

Life Moves in Seasons

Life is cyclical. We all move through seasons of clarity and confusion, strength and surrender, action and rest. My deepest honor as a guide is to walk beside women through these cycles, not from an expert lens, but from a place of wisdom, compassion, and shared humanity. Your season will not look like mine, and that is part of the beauty.

Rooted Renewal: A Season of Gentle but Meaningful Change

Today, I re-emerge with gratitude for the people who supported me, for the women I have had the privilege to work with, and for the sacred lessons these years have offered. I carry them forward with humility and joy, ready to meet each new season, mine and yours, with open hands and a quiet heart. If you are feeling ready for your own season of gentle but meaningful change, you can learn more about The Rooted Renewal Program here, a 10-session container to support you through a full season of life. It gives you the time, space, and grounded coaching to explore what is not working, experiment with small shifts, and create a way of living that feels more aligned.

You Are Not Behind

Wherever you find yourself today, know that you are not behind, not broken, and not alone. There is always room to root a little deeper, soften a little more, and choose the next right step for you, in this season, on your own time. Your season of renewal does not have to be rushed to be real.
