"I help women find their way back to themselves."

Hi, I’m Sylvie.

I am a Certified Holistic Health and Wellness and Life Transition Coach for women who have asked themselves: Where did I go? Who am I now? What is my purpose? And couldn't think their way to an answer.

You are done making yourself small. And you know it.

I spent years disappearing to keep everyone else comfortable. The work that brought me home to myself is the work I now do with you.

Maybe you lost yourself in motherhood. Maybe at midlife when the life you built stopped fitting. Maybe in your work, your marriage, or when your faith collapsed and took your entire sense of self with it.

You have done the therapy. You have read the books. You have made the lists. And you are still asking the question.

Because finding your way back cannot be thought through. It has to be felt through.

My work helps you stay with yourself as something ends, listen to what your body already knows, and let your life reorganize around what is actually true for you. I bring somatic practices, mindfulness, and nervous system awareness into every coaching relationship, alongside a personal meditation practice of over ten years, including silent Vipassana retreats.

The result is not always a new job, a new relationship, or a new external identity. It is something quieter and more lasting. An embodied sense of self you can return to, even when everything else feels unclear. It is sovereignty.

I am trained through the Institute for Integrative Nutrition with additional certification in Elder Coaching and training in Somatic Practices, and I work with women in midlife and beyond.

I have maintained a personal meditation practice for over ten years, including silent Vipassana retreats, and Somatic practices, and I bring that same quality of presence into every coaching relationship.

I created Rooted Wise Woman because that space should exist. And because no woman should have to navigate her becoming alone.

I am so glad you are here.

Here's what I know, all the way down: everything you've been looking for outside yourself, you already carry. My work isn't to hand you a new plan or a new you. It's to walk beside you while you remember who you've been all along and reclaim the life that's actually yours.

Get To Know Me…

  • I am a Generator 6/2. The Role Model and the Hermit.

    The 6/2 moves through life in stages, building toward a particular kind of authority. Not taught. Not certified. Demonstrated.

    What that means in practice is this: I lead by living. My energy speaks before my words ever do. I don't need to hustle or explain. My greatest gifts are often the ones I dismiss as "just what I do."

    I possess a blend of wisdom, natural talent, and inner clarity that has unfolded across the phases of my own life. The seasons I have lived, the losses, the becoming, the returning to myself, are not separate from what I offer you. They are the source of it.

    I listen. I see hope. I can point out the paths and ways for others to transform. And I do it without making it about me.

    The Hermit in me needs solitude and stillness to stay rooted. The Role Model in me is called to share what has been quietly growing all along.

    This is both of those things at once.

  • I am still on my path of self discovery.

    I have dreams I am still growing into. A retreat I am still building. A life I am still calling in, one season at a time.

    I share this because I believe the real medicine lives not in the woman who has it all figured out, but in the woman who keeps saying yes to what is stirring in her, even when she cannot yet see the whole path.

    None of my dreams have an expiration date.

    And neither do yours.

    It is never too late to call in what your soul is asking for.

    Your vision does not have to be clear yet. It does not have to be practical. It does not have to make sense to anyone else.

    It just has to be yours.

    What are you still becoming?

  • These are not aspirations. They are how I show up.

    Integrity

    I say what I mean and I mean what I say. I work with transparency, I hold clear boundaries, and I will always tell you the truth with care. You will never have to wonder where I stand or whether I am being real with you.

    Humility

    I do not have all the answers and I am not here to pretend otherwise. Humility keeps me open, curious, and honest about my own ongoing becoming. It is also what makes genuine connection possible, between us, and between you and yourself. When I stay open, you feel safe enough to do the same.

    Love

    Everything here is rooted in love. Not the performative kind. The steady, principled, clear-eyed kind that shows up even when it is uncomfortable. Love is why I care about the quality of this work. It is why I will not rush you. It is why you matter here, not just as a client, but as a woman.

    • I’m a nature lover. Nature is my medicine. You’ll often find me outdoors tending to my garden, exploring in nature, or simply contemplating life in the soothing sounds of the natural world.

    • Walking is my thing! Walking out in nature with my adorable dog Teddy is what lights me up. I love to feel his energy shift as he’s enjoying the smells and feeling the breeze as he turns his nose up is the best.

    • I’m a work in progress, constantly evolving and learning from the experiences and challenges that life presents.

    • I believe nothing is an accident. The universe presents us with lessons that will enrich and guide us in the right direction. It is up to us to have the awareness enough to learn from the lessons.
