What if the most powerful life lessons weren’t written in books… but sewn into pillowcases, passed down in recipes, and whispered through calloused hands?

In this episode of Rooted Warriors, we unravel the quiet legacy of a woman who stitched strength into every seam. Part seamstress, part storyteller, part spiritual safe place. She’s the kind of woman who teaches you more over coffee and a needle than most do with a microphone.

What if you started treating your everyday life like it actually matters? In this episode, we’re pulling back the curtain on what it really means to romanticize your life. Not in a Pinterest-perfect way, but in the soft, sacred, deeply intentional ways that shift your entire atmosphere.

We’re talking candles while you fold laundry, playlists that turn errands into road trips, morning rituals that feel like self-worth in action, and...

This week on Rooted Warriors...

When the script flips, so does the perspective. In this episode, Rooted Warriors hands the mic to Luke and the conversation gets deeper than expected.

With questions that go beyond surface talk, we explore: • Identity and belonging when life gets loud • Forgiveness without the apology • Being chosen and what to do when it doesn’t feel like it • The tension between softness and strength • Masculinity,...

When we talk about manhood, feminism, and fatherhood, we’re really talking about identity, legacy, and connection. The problem? Our culture twisted that conversation — slandering men, confusing strength with toxicity, and silencing what should’ve been sacred.

But what if masculinity, in its truest form, was never the enemy?

This week on Rooted Warriors, Luke joins us for a powerful, unscripted conversation about fatherhood, identit...

Have you ever felt that sting of being surrounded by people and still feeling unseen? That quiet ache behind your smile that no one else notices? As women, we often carry busy lives that look full on paper yet leave us empty inside. In this episode of Rooted Warriors, we talk about the kind of loneliness midlife women know too well.

We're pulling up our chairs to get real about what loneliness looks like in this season of life. We ...

Midlife burnout. Failed wellness trends. Self-help overload. In this laugh-through-the-tears episode of the Rooted Warriors Podcast, we’re getting real about all the things we thought would change our lives—and didn’t.

From gym memberships we ghosted, skincare that broke us out, meditation apps we downloaded and ignored, to health fads that left us broke and bloated—we’re unpacking the wellness graveyard of false starts and expensi...

Are you tired of feeling “behind” by society’s timelines?

Inspired by the wisdom of nature—like the maj...

We missed you.  We missed us.  And not just the podcast— but the space we create together when we stop pretending we're fine and actually talk about it.

We thought rest would reset us.  Turns out... rest is a different beast these days.  Slower isn’t always simpler. Quiet doesn’t always equal calm.  And “self-care” somehow started to feel like another task. 

This episode opens the door to what rest has become— in a life that’s loud...

This episode tastes like childhood—if childhood was fueled by Pop Rocks, cold burritos, and sibling smackdowns over the last Klondike Bar.

This week, the Rooted Warriors are tearing into the crinkly bags of memory and serving up the snacks that raised us. From Kool-Aid toothpicks and Corn Pops to the long-lost glory of Jell-O Pudding Pops, we’re diving deep into the sacred (and slightly suspect) snack lore of the 80s—back when suga...

Impulse buys. TikTok flops. Subscription traps. VRBO rentals. Sometimes our purchase turns out to be something we needed even more than we realized. And sometimes… well… not. 

In this Rooted Warriors confessional, we unpack the emotional chaos behind the things we swore could “change everything.” From vibrating face masks and composting toilets to organic underwear and an unforgettable desert trip—nothing is safe, and everything is...

Gina, Moe, and Kat are back, and we’re diving deep—right into the hard truths, hilarious detours, and gut-check questions about what it really means to shrink yourself.

From apologizing for emotions to hiding our weirdest quirks, this episode explores the generational patterns that teach women to be quiet, small, and agreeable—and why we’re done with all that. We talk about being too much, not enough, and the battle to protect the ...

It’s dinner-table storytelling with a side of smoked oysters and 80s chaos. In this episode, Gina and Moe welcome Greg back in the 3rd chair for another round of totally unscripted, wildly nostalgic, and hilariously honest memories.

This week, Gina and Moe welcome a very special guest to the Rooted Warriors table—our Gen X brother, Greg, filling in for Kat and bringing some much-needed man energy and memories. From broken childhood TVs to broken childhood dreams, we’re diving deep into what we thought adulthood would be... and what it actually is.

We talk growing up in chaos, parenting with grace (and grit), and what it's like realizing your favorite TV shows ...

We’re breaking the silence. We’re naming the unspoken. And we’re honoring the Queen Era that begins when your hormones stop playing nice.

In this powerful episode, the Rooted Warriors open up about the raw, unfiltered realities of menopause — the mood swings, the sleepless nights, the hot flashes that roll in like a storm… and the sacred shift we’ve been conditioned to fear instead of celebrate. OH... WE'RE TALKING ABOUT IT.

Fake isn’t always what it seems. It’s not just about clickbait headlines, surface-level friendships, or beauty standards that shift faster than trends on TikTok—it’s about staying true to yourself in a world that’s always trying to sell you a better version. It’s about choosing real over rehearsed, depth over decoration, and substance over spectacle.

At Rooted Warriors, we’re calling out how insecurity became a billion-dollar indus...
