Be Rooted
Find Freedom in who you are
“I feel like I’m discovering parts of me I’ve never known before”
“I now always feel better when I find the time for my personal wellbeing”
“It’s a light bulb to have this time to connect at a human level”
“I now realise we all struggle and that common humanity is real”
Whether you’re an emerging professional finding your footing, or a senior leader reshaping how you and your organisation lead — Be Rooted meets you where the ground feels unsteady, and helps you build something that holds.

Young Minds Deep Dive
A Rite of Passage
Inner Work, Outer Change
Start your journey of transformation here. Learn how to truly understand who you are and where you want to go and create a life where trust, connection and your free spirit leads the way. As a teacher of presence, my model of transition starts right there. Without presence of mind, we cannot see clearly and create the life we want, nor serve a bigger purpose.
The rite de passages
First, we learn to calm the mind and experience presence, we become more aware. Second, we find our footing and learn to feel emotional stability, we discover how to regulate our system. And lastly, we move towards a higher level of consciousness, frequency as it were, and experience how to hold ourselves lightly. Now in alignment with who you are, you learn to discern the best way forward, apply the teachings, live from a place of effortless ease. On purpose.

Gracefully step into a different way of operating
Barbara Piper
When you drop from your head into your heart, life becomes clear and purposeful.
That’s where Be Rooted began. After years of doing this work — with young professionals finding their way in life and senior leaders reshaping how they lead and change cultures at work, I have learned there’s a step beyond calm. Once the ground steadies and the heart opens, something else becomes possible: the capacity to stay steady even when the ground moves again. To see clearly in circumstances that would otherwise cloud the mind.
Transformation isn’t a single step. It has a shape. From separation to find your ground, to meeting the threshold to ultimately return. This program helps you separate from old patterns and find calm to take you through the threshold itself, and prepare you to return with something to give.

Transform yourself
An important question I learned to ask myself is: Am I living in integrity with my hearts’ intention? And then I asked myself how I could break down the conditioning that bounds me to past patterns and habits and transform it in a way of being that helps people awaken to deeper expressions of themselves, to an authentic way of life?
I’m deeply committed to awakening the compassionate leader that lives in all of us. We’re all being invited to align with what is true for us and from here we can truly serve the world with our work.

How does it work to find Root?
My main goal is to create calm spaces that support you to change our world by doing the inner work, changing from the inside out and live a fulfilling life.
In our online and in-person environment, we build spaces — for individuals, teams, and organisations — where the inner work can actually happen. Where directing attention inward first calms the mind, opens the heart, and eventually widens what a person is capable of seeing and giving. Not theory. Practiced, over and over, until it holds under real pressure.

Programs
Taking good care of yourself is essential to meeting the challenges of a busy work and life and to deal with times of stress. The experiential courses are designed to cultivate leadership as well as contemplative practices and self-compassion individually and in community.
Our programs are designed in such a way that in each session, workshop and training you drop-into a safe space. A place to learn about yourself, listen to your hearts’ desire, explore avenues and experiment with new behaviour.
As we model behaviors of empathy and kindness to ourselves and others, we learn to deal and prevent (further) stress and build resilience. Practicing this together in an open and safe space normalizes the practice and motivates courage and application in the face of challenges. By addressing and applying personal leadership styles that are authentic and give room to clarity and choice, we create systemic change.
