About Root + Reach

Root + Reach is a coaching and consulting practice designed for creatives, changemakers, and care-centered businesses. We work with individuals and organizations in moments of transition—offering support that’s structured, intentional, and radically human.

Through one-on-one coaching, small business consulting, and collaborative learning experiences, we help people root where they are and reach for what’s next.

Her work sits at the intersection of personal development and organizational strategy—bridging emotional labor with practical systems to help people grow without burning out.

She specializes in supporting creatives, caregivers, neurodivergent professionals, and founders who are building purpose-driven lives and businesses.

The Co/Lab

How We Work:

Our mission is to create space for purposeful change.

Our mission is to create space for purposeful change.

We support individuals, teams, and communities as they navigate growth, burnout, reinvention, and visioning. Whether you're recalibrating your daily routine or reimagining your entire business model, we offer practical support grounded in care, clarity, and justice.

Our Philosophy

Root + Reach is built around the idea that learning and change should be participatory—not prescriptive.

We combine coaching, consulting, and collaboration inside one creative container: the Co/Lab. This is our approach to experimentation, strategy, and mutual learning.

You might come to us for help planning your week, structuring your team, or launching a new offering—but no matter the entry point, the process is the same:

Real tools. Real reflection. Real movement forward.
