Rooted + Wild
You were never meant to shrink yourself to be loved.
Rooted + Wild is a podcast for women who are done performing—and ready to reclaim the parts of themselves they’ve silenced.
Hosted by Chessie Hollibaugh—a mom of four, real estate entrepreneur, and a woman who’s walked through early motherhood, faith deconstruction, body healing, trauma, marriage work, and rebuilding from the inside out—this show is about the intersection of truth-telling and wholeness.
Whether you’re navigating identity shifts, craving honest conversations about life, marriage, business, or healing from the girl you used to be—this space is for you.
Here, you get to be both soft and strong. Rooted and wild. Holy and human.

Rooted + Wild-You Hurt Me, So I Hurt You
In this episode, I’m owning something hard: the ways I’ve responded when I’ve been hurt. Whether it’s lashing out, going silent, or justifying my behavior because “they started it” I’ve been stuck in a cycle that doesn’t reflect who I want to be. I talk about the fire that rises when we feel triggered, the blackout moments where everything goes numb, and the silent treatment we use to protect ourselves. And I share the exact message I sent my husband that cracked me open and reminded me —
you don’t have to be perfect to be powerful.
This one’s raw, real, and full of reflection. Let’s break the cycle together.
