Welcome to Rooted & Roaming

Hey, I’m so glad you’re here.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed, touched out, or just really in need of a vacation (but also wondering how to make it happen without spending a fortune)… you’re in the right place.

Rooted & Roaming is a space for moms, helpers, wanderlusters — and anyone trying to stay grounded while doing a lot. I created this space to blend my worlds as a therapist, a new mom, and someone who believes travel should be both accessible and soul-filling.

Here’s a quick guide to what you’ll find here:

Therapy Tools (That Don’t Feel Like Homework)

Simple strategies to help regulate your nervous system, set boundaries, and feel more like yourself — even on the hard days. Think: less “textbook,” more “I actually tried this and it helped.”

Mom Life (The Real Kind)

No perfect routines or curated chaos here. Just honest reflections on postpartum, identity shifts, overstimulation, and all the beauty and mess that comes with being someone’s mama.

Travel Hacks & Tips

I’m all about helping you travel smarter — not harder. From how we use points and miles to practical itineraries, packing tips, and hidden gem destinations, you’ll find ideas and inspiration to make travel feel exciting, not exhausting.
