where I take a deep dive into the concepts and experiences behind root & renew Coaching
Transformation can be challenging
Especially during times of uncertainty, isolation, and unrest - yet, it is during such times that transformation is required to move forward.
I created Root and Renew Coaching in November 2024 to foster connection, growth, and wonder and to help people make deep-rooted change in their lives. I work with clients, using houseplants to help facilitate personal growth, self awareness, and shifting their mindset to achieve goals that might seem out of reach. We explore the underlying beliefs and patterns that could be holding them back, and ultimately empower them to live a more fulfilling life…

FAQs
What's the difference between coaching and therapy?
While both coaching and therapy can provide support and guidance, the key difference is that therapy focuses on treating mental health conditions and understanding past experiences to heal emotional and behavioral issues, while coaching aims to help individuals achieve specific goals in the present and future, usually by focusing on personal development and behavior change without delving deeply into past trauma.
How do plants fit into Root and Renew Coaching?
Plants serve as scaffolding in forming the habits and character traits needed to create lasting growth and change. They act as a mirror for our lives, reflecting our rich and deep inner worlds, enabling us to see ourselves more clearly.
When will I receive a plant after I sign up for coaching?
After our first session I will either have a plant sent to you from a local (to you) plant shop. If you don’t have a local plant shop (this isn’t a thing right?), I will send you a plant from my favorite local plant shop in Pittsburgh.
Will you teach me how to care for plants?
I will of course offer guidance/advice when requested but I’m most interested in helping you grow. Our sessions might include some plant assistance but we will primarily be focused on you and your goals. You can find lots of plant care resources, lessons, and tutorials under the resources section of this website.
What happens if my plant dies?
We take time to process the loss of the plant, whatever that means to you. Then we take time to reflect on what might have caused the plant to die (if we don’t already know). If we can sit with discomfort, losing a plant presents an opportunity to learn valuable lessons.

To be a seed is to fully embrace the wholeness of who we are and the possibility for who we can become. To be a seed is to accept that to grow means we must let go of who and what we think we are - to crack open the hard outer shell and let our truest, most vibrant colors find the light.
