About Sasha Marie
Founder, The Rooted Response
Hey love,
I’m Sasha Marie, a woman who led rooms, held families together, carried ministries, ran teams, raised babies, and kept smiling… even when my body was screaming for relief.
For years, I was the one people leaned on.
The worship leader.
The dependable one.
The fixer.
The strong one.
But behind the microphone, behind the titles, behind the calm…
I was unraveling.
Not because I lacked faith.
But because the version of faith I inherited demanded my performance, not my presence.
I didn’t walk away from church with clarity… I walked away with exhaustion, questioning why belonging required shrinking… why being “good” required disappearing… and why God always felt farther the harder I tried.
And here’s what I learned the hard way:
Deconstruction doesn’t start in the mind — it starts in the body.
I left the systems, but the systems didn’t leave me.
My nervous system was still in survival.
I was still over-functioning, over-explaining, people-pleasing, bracing for judgment, mistaking silence for safety.
The truth?
My body was more loyal to the identity I built to survive than the woman I was becoming.
That’s when everything shifted.
Not in a breakdown. (FYI…there were plenty of breakdowns )
In a slow remembering.
Through sound healing, somatic work, nervous system repair, and spiritual reclamation, I stopped performing worthiness and learned to feel God again — in a way that didn’t cost me myself.
I rebuilt my life from truth instead of fear.
From embodiment instead of performance.
From spiritual sovereignty instead of religious conditioning.
And that is how The Rooted Response was born.
Not as a brand.
As a home for women like us, the ones who walked away from what wounded us, but still carried the residue in our bodies.
A home for women who are done outsourcing authority, done apologizing for their intuition, done confusing depleting self-sacrifice with love and ready to build lives, faith, and identities that feel safe to actually live inside.
My work is about helping women become whole enough to trust themselves again.
Inside The Rooted Response, I teach the tools that rebuilt me:
nervous system safety
somatic grounding
spiritual reclamation
subconscious reprogramming
sound + breathwork
intuitive leadership
embodied truth
Not to perform power but to live it.
Not to return to religion but to return to God without losing yourself.
Not to become a new version of you but to finally become the one you were before fear told you to be smaller.
I believe this deeply:
When a woman feels safe in her own body, her clarity becomes undeniable.
Her boundaries sharpen.
Her faith expands.
Her authority becomes grounded, not loud.
And her life begins to align in ways she once prayed for but never felt worthy of.
This is the work I’m called to lead.
This is the home we’re building.
This is The Rooted Response.

What Is The Rooted Response?
A home for women who lead others, yet are now rebuilding themselves.
The Rooted Response is for the woman who has coached, counseled, mothered, supported, and guided everyone else…
but is now standing in her own unraveling, asking:
“Who am I when I’m not performing strength, spirituality, or certainty?”
This space isn’t here to give you another belief system to follow.
It’s here to bring you back to the authority you outsourced in order to survive:
the intuition you muted, the truth you edited, the spiritual knowing you doubted,
the leadership you softened to stay acceptable.
This is for the woman who didn’t “fall away,”
but evolved because her spirit finally whispered:
“This version of God, this version of me, is too small.”
You’re not trying to burn your life down.
You’re trying to rebuild what is real —
but without the pressure, the performance, the hierarchy, or the quiet self-abandonment that used to be normal.
And that’s what The Rooted Response exists for.
It’s where nervous system safety, spiritual sovereignty, and somatic truth finally meet…
so your connection to God/Spirit/The Divine becomes something you feel, not something you perform.
What You Learn Here
You learn to trust your body again
not override it to be “strong,” “humble,” or “professional.”
You learn to see conditioning for what it is
the guilt, the overthinking, the freezing, the self-doubt.
Not spiritual warfare.
Not failure.
Just old programming your body is still holding.
You learn to rebuild spiritual connection without erasing yourself.
No more devotion that drains you.
No more leadership that collapses you.
No more using God as the reason you abandon your needs.
You learn to reclaim authority you were trained to outsource
to pastors, parents, partners, mentors, systems, or roles.
Your knowing becomes credible again.
You learn to lead from regulation, not survival.
A regulated woman doesn’t need to be loud or hard.
She’s steady.
Powerful.
Rooted.
The Pathway Inside The Rooted Response
1. Remember & Recognize
See the patterns, beliefs, pressure, and survival responses that shaped you…
not to blame your past, but to understand the blueprint you’re walking out of.
2. Regulate & Root
Use somatic practices, nervous system work, breath, sound, and presence to create a baseline of safety.
Your body learns:
peace is not punishment, rest is not rebellion,
your voice is not a threat.
3. Reframe & Reclaim
Redefine faith, identity, worthiness, and belonging on your terms.
Release shame.
Untangle God from the systems that harmed you.
Build truth you can feel, not memorize.
4. Respond from Sovereignty
Stop reacting from fear, fawning, or old roles.
Start responding from clarity, calm, and inner authority.
Your pace becomes yours.
Your decisions become clean.
Your spirituality becomes lived, not performed.
