Rooted and Rising - Coaching Conversations with Anna-Marie
‘There’s a different energy between rooted and rising. It’s that stability of the rootedness. There’s that assuredness, that confidence.
And then there’s that rising of, well, I don’t know. What could emerge? I don’t have all the answers. I don’t know where I’m going and that’s ok. I don’t need to control it or plan. Things will emerge. This a big element around trust’ - Anna-Marie

Rooted and Rising - Coaching Conversations with Anna-Marie
Episode One - Rooted & Rising Revealed
‘I really want to be having conversations that maybe there hasn’t been the space for, or are a bit crunchy, or hard, or maybe there’s kind of conflicting opinion. And we don’t have the answers.
I really want to be creating space and getting the experts in, and then understanding their journey, and what is it that has drawn them to the areas within which they work, and where they’re trying to make a difference’
Anna-Marie Watson
Set against the autumn Equinox on the ancient land of Somerset in England Anna-Marie and Rob explore her ideas behind the concept of ‘rooted and rising’; physically, mentally, emotionally, energetically and spiritually. Our conversations dance across the past, present and future through childhood memories playing in the school hawthorn hedge, serving time in the British Army and competing as an elite athlete. Anna-Marie offers candid insights into her world as a self-confessed recovering perfectionist and people pleaser with a former full-blown addiction to ultra-running. She sets her vision for future conversations with her guests to create a space where crunchy topics where we don’t have the answers are held with curiosity.
