I had my first son in November 2014, and like so many new moms, I poured everything I had into him. Every moment, every thought, every ounce of energy—I gave it all. But in doing so, I forgot about someone just as important: myself.
I ignored my own needs, thinking that self-care was selfish or unnecessary. I told myself that being a “good mom” meant sacrificing everything. But instead of feeling fulfilled, I felt drained. My health suffered—physically, emotionally, and mentally. The exhaustion made motherhood harder than it needed to be. It put a strain on my relationship, and I wasn’t showing up as the mother or partner I wanted to be.
Then, something shifted. I realized that I couldn't pour from an empty cup. I started making my self-care a priority—not just bubble baths and spa days, but real, deep, nourishing care. Eating well, moving my body, finding moments of stillness, embracing slower living, and allowing myself to just be. And do you know what happened? Everything started to change. I had more patience, more joy, and more energy. My relationship with my partner flourished. I felt like me again.
By the time I had my second son in January 2019, life had every reason to become more chaotic. But it didn’t—because I had built a foundation of balance. I had learned that taking care of myself wasn’t a luxury; it was a necessity. Slow motherhood, slowing down, and being intentional with my time helped me become the mother I truly wanted to be. And most importantly, it set a beautiful example for my children. I wasn’t just telling them to take care of themselves—I was showing them how.
This journey led me to create From Roots to You—a space dedicated to family wellness, where mothers can embrace holistic, natural self-care and prevent burnout. And now, I’m taking this mission even further with Mothers Rooted in Balance—a program designed to guide moms back to themselves. This isn’t about adding another thing to your to-do list. It’s about reshaping the way you see motherhood, self-care, and your own worth.
I want every mother to feel radiant, happy, and rooted in her own well-being. I want you to thrive—not just for your family, but for yourself. Because when you prioritize your own health, happiness, and balance, your whole family flourishes.
This program is for the moms who feel stretched too thin, who have lost themselves in the beautiful chaos of motherhood, who crave more peace, more joy, more you. Let’s reclaim balance, together.
Are you ready to root yourself in balance and create a motherhood experience that nourishes both you and your family? Join me in this journey—because you deserve it.
With love and balance,
Tammy
