The deeper why
Rise Rooted was born from the knowing that when women reclaim safety in their bodies, they reclaim the rhythm of life itself. This work is not only about personal transformation - it is about restoring the natural intelligence that allows us to live, lead, and love from grounded wholeness.
Rise Rooted began as a response to the quiet ache so many women carry - the sense of being disconnected from their own bodies while holding so much for everyone else.
When we repair safety at a nervous system level, we remember our right to rest, to receive, and to move at the pace of our own truth.
What begins as a single course becomes a constellation of offerings - immersive online programs, transformational retreats, and an integrative app that brings nervous system wisdom into everyday life.
Each space is designed to be deeply practical, beautifully held, and rooted in science, somatics, and soul.
The long term vision is to establish functional health and wellness centres for women - sanctuaries of regeneration, education, and collective healing.
Spaces where the next generation can witness what it looks like to live from deep coherence, and where every woman is reminded that her well-being is world-changing.
Your presence in this work is part of something much greater. Every breath you reclaim becomes a seed for our children’s children. Together, we are weaving the future - one regulated nervous system, one rooted woman at a time.
Founder of Rise Rooted
I have spent the past decade exploring how we reclaim connection, presence, and peace - without needing to escape our life to find it.
Before founding Rise Rooted, I spent years leading teams and managing high-level creative projects. I have run a fashion photography studio in Central London for a major UK retailer, carried on to overseeing international video productions, to coordinating online educational programmes, and delivering large-scale projects for purpose-driven brands.
And prior to that, in 2012, I experienced a major health crisis where my body had completely shut down - this is where my path began.
This means alongside embodied transformation, and years of certified trainings, hours of facilitating - I also bring strategic understanding - helping you do more than dream of your next chapter, but fully step into it.
This is about choosing how you want to live.

Beta invitation
Join the Nervous System Reset in the live beta launch and receive the full 4 week nervous system reset journey at a fraction of the full investment. Be part of this body based method - your reflections directly shape how it evolves.
Scroll to explore each element of the Reset.
Join Cassandra live each week for a practice led session that helps your nervous system build elasticity - the ability to move between states with more ease and a deeper sense of safety. You will be guided through somatic practices and gentle nervous system resets, with optional space for reflection. Sharing is always welcome, never required.
A gentle online space where you can stay connected between sessions, ask questions, or share wins if it feels right. Participation is optional - the space simply holds steady support throughout your journey so you do not have to walk this path alone.
All live sessions are recorded so you can revisit the practices afterwards. Ideally you will create space to join live, but if life happens, or you are in another timezone, the replays keep the work accessible and supportive.
Each week you receive a curated set of guided audios, micro practices, and short explanations of the nervous system principles behind the work. These 3 to 10 minute practices help you restore capacity and move through everyday life in new ways. Access them easily through the Kajabi app.
In this optional session, we map how stress and protection patterns show up in your body. You receive personalised tools that support safety, presence, and nervous system flexibility so your system can hold more of the life you are creating.
A closing session to anchor your growth and translate insights into simple, supportive next steps. Together we distil what has shifted and shape a practical protocol so your transformation feels embodied and sustainable beyond the four weeks.
If you feel the yes in your body, you can secure your space in the live beta now. The Reset is designed to support you with practical, science informed tools that fit into real life, guiding you to build steadiness, clarity, and grounded inner leadership.

Clarity for your nervous system journey
These are the questions women most often bring into the Reset, especially when they are seeking clarity and a grounded way to change how they feel in their bodies.
This is one of the most common experiences women bring into the Reset. The practices are built with sensitivity in mind, helping your system slow down, stabilise, and find steady ground without pushing or forcing.
You will learn how to meet activation early, soothe overwhelm, and feel genuinely safe inside your body again.
Many tools focus on the mind, willpower, or quick fixes. This work shifts change into the body, where patterns actually live.
Instead of trying to think differently, you learn to feel differently, respond differently, and create natural change through your nervous system rather than effort or force.
Yes. You will learn how to recognise early signals, break stress cycles, and regulate before overwhelm takes over.
For many women, this is the first time they feel resourced, clear, and able to breathe again without collapsing or powering through.
Absolutely. Rest is a skill, not a personality trait. You will learn to downshift safely, without dropping into collapse or freeze.
We work gently with your system to build the capacity for slowing down, so rest becomes supportive rather than overwhelming.
Yes. The work is paced, gentle, and grounded in the principles of nervous system safety.
You will learn how to honour your capacity, listen to your cues, and regulate without overriding or reactivating old patterns.
This is completely normal. Fear shows up when your system does not yet recognise change as safe.
This course builds safety first, so change feels possible, grounded, and held, rather than shocking or destabilising.
You are not just learning tools, you are rewiring patterns at the level of the nervous system.
When change happens in the body, it becomes natural, embodied, and sustainable. These practices are designed to become part of your new normal.
You will complete the Reset with your own personal regulation protocol and seasonal practices that you can return to again and again.
You will also be invited into the Rise Rooted community for continued guidance, embodiment, and support whenever you need it.

Founder — Rise Rooted
Rise Rooted supports women who are ready to step beyond limiting narratives, and fully embody the beautiful, often non linear and quite unpredictable but always extraordinary chapter of their lives.
Here, you reconnect with the truth of who you are, but most importantly who you want to be - not the version shaped by childhood conditioning or external expectations, but the woman who exists beneath all those layers. The one who knows she is here for more.
This journey is about reclaiming trust in yourself. Rooting into resilience. Taking radical accountability for your choices and your focus. Because true transformation doesn’t happen through force - it happens when you move in alignment with your deepest values, desires, and embodied knowing.
My approach blends practical strategy with holistic integration, ensuring that the shifts you make don’t just feel good in the moment, but become the foundation for a life that feels aligned, energised, and fully your own.
You already have everything you need within you. My role is to walk with you while you bring it to life.

a seasonal somatic audio reset 𖥧
Tending to the three core aspects of our shared human experience.
When these three threads are woven with care, everyday life becomes steadier, clearer, and more meaningful.
Each pillar of Rise Rooted is grounded in peer reviewed evidence, then translated into embodied practice.
A 2025 meta analysis of 17 trials found that mind body exercise produced a substantial reduction in anxiety symptoms among women.
Programmes that combined movement, breath and mindful focus were most effective for easing anxiety, with benefits seen across different ages and life stages.
Rise Rooted cares because this confirms that nervous system led movement is not a luxury. It is a precise intervention for reducing anxiety, restoring clarity and rebuilding sustainable energy.
2025 research reframes women’s intuition as attunement – a biologically grounded capacity to sense and integrate inner and relational signals.
The paper shows how trauma and chronic stress can dull this attunement, and how restoring regulation and connection can re awaken intuitive knowing, empathy and relational presence.
Rise Rooted cares because what we call soul work is also nervous system work. When the body is regulated, intuition is no longer a whisper under static. It becomes a clear inner signal women can trust in leadership and in life.
A 2025 physiology study found that drinking cold water rapidly shifted autonomic balance in young women, co activating both sympathetic and parasympathetic branches.
Heart rate variability markers changed within minutes, showing how a simple body based stimulus can modulate the nervous system in real time and support re entry into calm.
Rise Rooted cares because it demonstrates that somatic tools are highly trainable levers. Small, repeatable body based practices can reshape how the nervous system meets stress and returns to steadiness.
