Meet the Heart Behind the Healing

The Wilderness That Became My Ministry

Hi! My name is Cash and I’m so glad you’re here. My journey in health and wellness has been one of resilience, self-discovery, and transformation—a story that began in childhood and led me to create a space for others to explore the beliefs that shape their lives and to strengthen their capacity for self-regulation.

I didn’t arrive here because I always had the answers.
I arrived here because I was completely undone — stripped of every identity I had built, every role I had clung to, and every illusion that had once made me feel safe.

For most of my life, I lived in survival mode. I wore the mask of “the strong one,” the dependable one, the high-achiever who held everything together — even when she was falling apart inside. I poured myself into everyone else because deep down, I didn’t believe I was worthy of being poured into. Somewhere along the way, I had learned that love had to be earned. That worth had to be proven. That rest was a reward, not a right. And so I worked, I produced, I smiled through the pain — and I called it strength.

But behind the masks and milestones was a woman quietly unraveling. The kind of unraveling that doesn’t make a sound until everything collapses.

Years of unspoken trauma, self-abandonment, and emotional suppression began to show up in my body. Chronic illness didn’t arrive overnight — it built itself in layers, just like the life I was living. Eventually, the breakdown came. I had a stroke. My memory fractured. I forgot entire years of my life. I woke up in a body that felt foreign and a world that no longer made sense. The people I loved looked familiar, but I couldn’t feel the memories that bound us.
The truth is, I didn’t just forget what had happened — I forgot who I was.

The world kept spinning, but I was frozen. And for the first time in my life, I couldn’t push through it. I couldn’t perform. I couldn’t outrun the silence. I had no choice but to stop. And it was in that stillness — in the raw, terrifying quiet — that I finally began to hear the One voice I had never truly listened to.

It wasn’t religion that saved me. It was relationship.
It wasn’t in a sermon or a scripture I had memorized — it was in the sacred, breathless moment when I gave up everything I thought I had to be, and cried out from the depths of my pain.
No more pretending. No more striving. No more bargaining.

Just surrender.
Real, holy, soul-level surrender.

And in that wilderness — the place I thought would destroy me — He met me.
God didn’t hand me a list of what I had done wrong. He didn’t flood me with guilt or shame.
He just loved me — right there in the wreckage.
He called me daughter. He whispered truth over the ashes of my old life. And somehow, in that sacred meeting, I realized I wasn’t being punished. I was being invited into something deeper.

That moment was the beginning of my becoming.

But becoming doesn’t happen all at once. My journey back to myself came in slow, sacred layers. It looked like learning to feel again. Learning to grieve. Learning to rest without guilt. Learning to nourish my body not to fix it, but to honor it.
It looked like sitting with the pain instead of pushing past it.
It looked like letting God lead — even when I didn’t know where we were going.

And through it all, He rebuilt me.
Not into the woman I used to be — but into the woman He always knew I was.

Primal Roots Integrative Wellness was born from that wilderness.
Not as a business. As a ministry.
A sacred space for the ones who are ready to return —
to God, to truth, to their body, to the person they were created to be before the world told them otherwise.

Here, we don’t fix what’s broken — because you are not broken.
Here, we explore the internal belief systems that keep you bound.
We hold space for the nervous system and the soul.
We nourish the body with compassion, not control.
And we walk every step together — anchored in faith, wrapped in grace, and led by the Spirit.

You don’t have to keep surviving.
There’s a way home.
And I’m here to walk with you.
