Meet Kimberly
Rooted in the Midcoast, guided by experience.
Welcome to a space designed for deep listening and gentle change.
My journey into holistic wellness began over a decade ago in the fast-paced world of preventative clinical care. As a Registered Dental Hygienist (RDH) with a Bachelor of Science from the University of New England, I spent years taking care of others while intimately learning what career burnout, physical tension, and systemic depletion felt like.
Everything felt out of alignment.
I knew our bodies and minds were craving a deeper level of healthcare—one that bridges the powerful connection between oral health and whole-body wellness.
That realization transformed my path. I trained at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN) to build my practice as a Certified Health Coach, and I am currently pursuing my National Board Certification (NBC-HWC). To bring true physical recovery into the mix, I became a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT) after many years as a student, weaving breath work, mindful movement, and somatic awareness into a holistic approach to healing. The learning never stops - I am currently pursuing my advanced 500 hour training.
Where My Two Worlds Meet:
The Private Studio: Right here in the woods and on the river in Newcastle, Maine, I host intimate group yoga series and 1:1 health coaching for busy women and moms who are ready to slow down, recognize what they need, and make lasting changes on their own terms.
The Digital Movement: Online, I am a wellness advocate and the founder of Rooting Within Health, where I host a "gloves-off" podcast amplifying silenced voices in dentistry and pushing for education, transparency, and systemic reform in oral healthcare.
I believe true transformation doesn't happen through massive, stressful overhauls. It happens right here—one small, intentional movement at a time. One choice can create a cascade of change. My objective is to teach my clients and students that they are in control of their own transformation. Every pivot starts with a first move!!
Life Beyond the Mat
When I’m not coaching, hosting the podcast, or teaching, you can find me enjoying New England life with my husband, our three children, a Maine Coon cat named Ansel Adams, our two rescue dogs, Jane Austen and Nola Noelle, our four fluffy Buff Orpington chickens (Henrietta, Luna Moon, Rosie, and Biscuits!), and numerous unnamed fish.
