Rooted Mama & Co.

05/27/2026

We start Monday.

Hi Mamas,

The GLP-1 Natural Support Beta Cohort starts Monday, June 1st, & a few spots are still open.

This week I heard from Mamas in DMs, in comments, & in conversations that started with some version of “wait, there’s actually another way to address this?”

Yes. There is. And that’s what this program is built around.

If you’re new here, this is a 12-week whole-person program for the Mama whose body stopped cooperating. The cravings, the fatigue, the weight that won't shift, the feeling that something is just off. We work on the same things GLP-1 medications target, naturally, through lifestyle, real food, herbs, & a framework that fits your actual life.

Not a huge time commitment. Not a perfect protocol. Not a program that asks you to become a different person overnight.

A framework & you, one root at a time.

If any part of that sounds like what you've been looking for, you're in the right place.

Drop a 🌿 in the comments or DM me & I'll get you the details.

Raise your hand if you've been in a GLP-1 conversation lately. 🙋

Whether you're on a medication, thinking about it, or just wondering if there's another way... this is for you.

As a Clinical Herbalist, Functional Nutritionist & Wellness Coach I built a 12-week program for the Mama whose body stopped cooperating, the cravings, the fatigue, the weight that won't shift, the feeling that something is just off.

It's not about Ozempic. It's also not not about Ozempic. It meets you exactly where you are.

Lifestyle, food & herbs working together. Whole person. No shame. No gimmicks.

I'm opening a small beta cohort starting June 1st.

Beta = lower investment + direct access to me + your feedback shapes the program.

Something is opening & it might be for you.

Hi Friends,

You're doing the things & your body still isn't responding the way it used to.

The cravings. The fatigue. The weight that won't shift. The feeling that something is just off.

I built a program for exactly that moment.

It's 12 weeks. It's whole-person -- lifestyle, food, & herbs working together.

It's not about Ozempic & it's also not not about Ozempic.

It meets you exactly where you are.

I'm opening a small beta cohort starting June 1st.

Beta means lower investment, direct access to me, & your feedback shapes what this becomes.

Drop a 🌿 if you want to know more.

That 3pm moment: staring into the pantry, craving something sweet, something crunchy, anything.

You ate lunch. A real lunch.

And yet here you are.

That's your blood sugar talking.

And once you understand what it's saying, the craving makes sense.

More on that this week. 🌿

Anyone else live this? 👇

This is a no-nonsense version which is simple, I will be working on a more traditional version for those who want to melt chocolate, so keep an eye out for that.

What is Gianduja? “Gianduja or Gianduia: a mixture of chocolate , sugar , and nuts which are finely ground or ground into nut butter. While made traditionally in Italy using 30% hazelnuts and dark chocolate, it can be made with milk or white chocolate as well. The most famous version

I had the pleasure of hosting a fun, laughter-filled Chocolate Tasting this Friday at The Plant Sanctuary in Walnut Creek.

I have had a lot of inquiries & wanted to post some pics as well as update you on future tastings because they are in the pipeline!

The next tasting will be this Friday in Alameda at Swings & Wings. If you'd like to join us, register here: https://l.bttr.to/5GqmD

Regular price is $55, but a parent & kiddo or a couple can sign up for $99 as a pair. If you'd like to sign up with your kiddo or partner / date, reach out so that I can facilitate the process.

There will be at least another tasting in October. If you'd like to attend in Walnut Creek in October, let me know so I can plan dates.

For anyone wanting to have a private tasting, we can accommodate up to about 22 people & fully customize the experience.

I welcome any comments & questions.

I'm so excited to share this experience with fellow chocolate enthusiasts.
