Our Story
Why We Built Rooted Renewal
We created Rooted Renewal because we believe women deserve deeper support in the seasons that shape so much. There are seasons in life where what is happening beneath the surface matters more than ever — in the body, the nervous system, the home, and the future of a family. Yet so many women move through these chapters feeling unsupported, reactive, and alone.
For both of us, this mission is deeply personal. In different ways, we each know what it feels like to be struggling, searching for answers, and wishing there was more support, more clarity, and more community along the way. We also know how powerful it is when women feel seen, heard, and held in seasons that can otherwise feel isolating.
We built Rooted Renewal to be something different: a space where women can take a more proactive, whole-person approach to their health and be supported by a like-minded community along the way. We call these pivotal chapters rooting seasons — seasons where daily choices carry added weight and where tending to the roots can shape what grows next.
While our work currently begins in the preconception and trying-to-conceive journey, our vision has always extended far beyond that. Rooted Renewal is being built to support women through the full arc of transformative seasons that shape the family.
At its core, Rooted Renewal exists to help women feel more seen, more supported, and more rooted in the seasons that matter most.
Our Foundation
What We're Rooted In
Generational impact
What we nurture now ripples forward
We believe the roots we tend today can shape far more than our present health. The choices we make now ripple forward into our families, our homes, and the generations that follow.
Proactive care
Proactive care matters
We believe women deserve support before they reach a breaking point. Too often, care begins only after something is wrong, but we believe there is power in tending to the body early, intentionally, and with wisdom.
Holistic wellness
The body deserves to be understood
We believe the body is wise, not broken. True wellness is never just physical. The body, mind, heart and spirit are all connected, and caring for the whole person changes everything.
The power of community
Women need community, not just information
We believe women deserve more than information — they deserve connection. Healing and growth happen more powerfully when women feel seen, supported and surrounded by a like-minded village. No woman should have to feel lonely or lost during these seasons.
Family-centered approach
Strong families are built from the inside out
We believe this journey is bigger than one moment and bigger than one person. The seasons of conception, pregnancy, and parenting are not just the mother's journey — they're a family journey. We empower couples to work together, share the load, and create a strong foundation for their future.
Evidence-based + heart-led
Science and soul belong together
We believe research and lived experience both matter. We value clinical insight, wisdom, and compassionate care, and we are committed to supporting women in a way that is both thoughtful and deeply human.

“More than anything, I do this so that no woman feels as lonely and lost as I have felt.”
My passion for women’s health comes from both personal experience and family history. Women in my family have faced generations of reproductive challenges, and growing up with that history shaped the way I think about fertility, health, and the importance of proactive care.
That personal journey led me into pelvic health, functional medicine, and fertility support. Along the way, I fell in love with helping women better understand their bodies and recognize that there is a major difference between what is considered “normal” and what is truly optimal. I also saw how many women were being dismissed, handed surface-level answers, or left to navigate this season feeling overwhelmed and alone.
Today, as a Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT), Certified Functional Medicine Practitioner (CFMP), and Pelvic Rehab Fertility Specialist (PRFS), my work is rooted in individualized, whole-person care. I’m passionate about helping women optimize their health in ways that feel empowering and attainable — not through fear or perfection, but through a clear roadmap that supports the body, honors the full person, and lays a stronger foundation for what comes next.
In this season, I’m continuing to optimize my own health while building a life that supports the kind of partner and parent I hope to be.
Meet Britt
Long before I became a mother, I was already on a journey of healing and asking bigger questions about health, resilience, and the kind of legacy I wanted to create for my future family. That journey led me into the world of epigenetics, health coaching, and eventually nervous system work — where everything began to come together.
Today, as a Certified Health Coach specializing in nervous system health, my work is rooted in resilience and generational wellbeing. Professionally, I have the honor of working with top executives and leaders in major organizations to help them build the internal foundation for sustainable performance and leadership. At Rooted Renewal, I bring that same lens into the family unit and women's health — helping women better understand their bodies, build resilience, and create stronger roots for the families they are growing.
Through both my own healing journey and my professional work, I have seen how deeply stress and nervous system patterns shape health, capacity, and family life. As a mother currently pregnant with my second child, I'm living this work in real time.
