Returning to my Roots

A Gentle Return Inward: My Journey & an Invitation to Yours,
There comes a moment in many of our lives when the noise of the outside world becomes too loud to ignore and something inside us quietly asks for attention.
For sensitive souls, this moment often arrives not as a dramatic awakening, but as a subtle exhaustion, a feeling of being overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of who we are beneath everything we’ve been carrying. This was the place where my own healing journey truly began.
For a long time, I lived while still growing into myself- listening to quiet inner whispers that something wanted to change, yet feeling unsure, afraid, or not quite ready to act on them. Like many sensitive people, I learned how to keep going, how to adapt, and how to hold things together, even when my inner world was asking for something different.
There came a point where I could no longer ignore that inner voice. Sitting with it took time. It asked me to trust myself, to loosen what no longer felt aligned, and to create space for my own healing and growth, even when the path ahead felt unclear. Choosing myself in this way wasn’t easy, but it was deeply transformative.
As I began to honour this inner shift, I noticed something soften within me. I felt more connected, to myself, to life, and to what truly mattered. From that place of reconnection, new support arrived, including a deeply grounding partnership that continues to grow and create alongside me.
Like all true healing journeys, this path has held both beauty and grief. There have been moments of loss that shaped me quietly and deeply, reminding me how tender and precious life is. And from that tenderness, something new wanted to be born, not in spite of what was lost, but because of it.
This is how Ascending Roots came into being.
Ascending Roots is not just a business; it is a reflection of lived experience, of learning to listen inwardly, to trust change, and to heal at the root. It was created as a space for those who feel called to turn inward, to slow down, and to honour their sensitivity rather than override it.
If you are here, perhaps you are in a similar phase.
You may feel called to retreat slightly from the noise of the world. You might be feeling tender, uncertain, or quietly aware that something within you is shifting. Please know: these feelings are not a sign that something is wrong. Often, they are signs of deep intelligence and wisdom moving within you.
Healing is not about fixing yourself or becoming someone else. It is about remembering, gently, patiently, who you are beneath everything you have carried. It begins with listening, with softness, and with allowing yourself to be exactly where you are.
My intention through this work, and through these words, is to offer a space where you feel seen, safe, and supported. A space where nothing is demanded of you, and where your healing unfolds in its own time.
If this resonates, I want you to know that you are not alone. You are deeply welcome here.
And when you feel ready, I would be honoured to walk alongside you as you continue your journey inward, back to your roots, and toward your own gentle ascent.
Much Love
Demi <3
