Meet Our Founder

However you stumbled upon this space, welcome! I’m Sara, a wife, mother, board-certified Integrative Health Practitioner & the founder of the Rooted + Restored wellness practice and marketplace.

I began a deep dive into my own health journey after being misdiagnosed and consistently let down by conventional healthcare in my late teens and early 20s. I pursued a career in healthcare administration hoping to find a way to create change, but as time passed, I only had more questions, fewer answers, and so much frustration. I began seeking alternative approaches in search of what true health and nourishment looked like. When I started studying the connection between human health and soil health, I realized how far we got from our physiological design.

Instead of trying to outsmart nature, we need to recognize we still have so much to learn. An integrative health approach takes into account the reality of today’s world — like soil depletion, diet culture, band-aid approach healthcare, overflowing toxic buckets, and high-stress lifestyles. After seeing the immense benefits of functional medicine, I certified in multiple integrative health modalities and how to use functional labs and blood chemistry to find root causes of health concerns. While I believe I’m still healing from certain health setbacks, I'm empowered by all the new knowledge I've acquired, and now hope to share it with you.

You’ll find me talking most about nervous system regulation, foundational wellness, and holistic family solutions.
