What It Means to Be a Practitioner

Rooted in Rising welcomes guides, coaches, mentors, experts, educators, peer supporters, creatives, and community space-holders — not because of their titles, but because of the integrity behind their work.

Offers intentional support, guidance, or facilitation through their work
Has lived through something they now help others navigate
Has done their own personal healing work — and continues to
Leads with discernment, embodiment, and care
Knows the difference between sharing and holding space
Works with humility, boundaries, and responsibility
Honors the sacredness of showing up for others — and doesn't take that lightly

A practitioner, in this space, is someone who brings their whole self to the work
