About Me: A Letter From Beth
I can look back to my childhood and remember when I completely trusted myself. I can also remember every experience that led me to feel splintered and incongruent.
It’s been a journey back to my whole, integrated self.
I remember how lost I was, how broken I felt, and how foggy the world seemed. I sought out every teacher and every modality to find my way back. From Ayurveda to anthropology and studying our ancestors and other cultures, to Chinese Medicine and mindset techniques - each new piece of information has woven the tapestry of Rosewood Woman and what I teach today.
There is nothing quite like feeling at home in your body for the first time after viewing it as your enemy or fearlessly taking big, bold steps to start bringing life to your passions.
After years of self-doubt, I don’t wonder if I’m capable anymore because I have an intimate relationship with myself, I know what I can do and I know how to do it within whatever framework I feel is most supportive.
This business is about so much more than “hacking” your cycle - it’s about returning to yourself in the deepest way possible. It’s about offering the support I longed for while I felt lost and frantically on a quest to identify why I was so disengaged, sick, anxious, and overwhelmed.
I wanted a rich life outside of the 9-5, filled with experiences and connection, and impact. I wanted ease, flow, and peace to structure my days. I wanted to be free of crippling panic attacks that would loop for hours and further disconnect me from my community and make me feel like an outsider.
I started Rosewood Woman from a laptop in bed between naps because I couldn’t hold a job that required me to go into an office.
I was nauseous all day, couldn’t remember basic things, had extreme fatigue, would get dizzy throughout the day, had horrible stomach pain, experienced extreme panic attacks that would run in loops for sometimes hours and no one could tell me what was wrong. Short car rides would make me sick and take all the energy I had.
This business (at the time under a different name) was how I provided for myself during some of the hardest years of my life.
When I started honoring a gentle, cyclical approach to my life is when everything changed.
I listened to the messages my body was sending me and reconnected to myself. I stopped pushing myself to the breaking point over and over.
I was attentive to the smallest whisper and found my way back.
It was during this time I learned about our infradian rhythm as women and how I had accidentally started honoring that rhythm just by listening to what my body needed.
How could I make a living in a world that wants me to be on 24/7?
How could the women I support be mamas without the chronic isolation and post-partum struggles so many face in a world that has forgotten mothers?
How could women come back to trusting their bodies in a society that is hell-bent on force-feeding synthetic hormones that alter our design?
I started researching how women of indigenous cultures operated within tribes. How they “did it all”. And I learned about the beautiful way women supported each other and shared responsibilities. How the wisdom and rituals were passed from generation to generation through ceremonies honoring the cyclical nature of women and our deep connection to Nature and Her seasons.
I learned ways to use our modern systems to take on our modern-day responsibilities through automation and optimization.
And I learned the best ways to delegate to other humans who can share some of the responsibility, too.
I learned what relationships and business look like in collaboration instead of competition.
This is what Rosewood Woman is all about.
My coaching programs are designed to help you move through business and life in your feminine strength.
My heart for you is to be strong and soft, bold and tender. Self-resourced while also connected to the support of your tribe. To create and produce and then take time for restoration.
I hope you'll join me on this journey,
