Rhizome Soul — 🌱🌍💫

Hey, I’m Megan. If we were on a porch with two mismatched mugs, this is what I’d tell you. ☕️🌅💛

Why the name? Because a rhizome is an underground network that refuses to quit. It spreads sideways, survives fire, and keeps sending up new shoots. Some clonal rhizome networks are estimated around 80,000 years old. That picture helps me breathe: we don’t have to be lone seedlings. We can be a web. When one part struggles, another part feeds it. 🌿🔥♾️

My life didn’t fall apart so much as melt. My father—my rock—died. My body staged a full rebellion (autoimmune chaos, thyroid wrecked, both ovaries gone). “Normal” vanished. My marriage went south. I was a neurodivergent parent raising four neurodivergent kids on fumes. My siblings felt like strangers. And with my mom there wasn’t warmth or safety—in full transparency just obligation, hurt and confusion. No soft place to land. 🖤🌀🌧️

In a world that’s over‑stimulated, over‑processed, instant‑gratification, disconnected, self‑medicating, and honestly a little scary, I was drowning—loneliness, fatigue, depression, extreme anxiety. I didn’t want a harder shell; I wanted peace. So I started digging below the symptoms for the root: habitat, nervous system, food, nature, community. I decided to grow roots instead of walls. 🌪️🫁🌲

This site is my way of finding the others—people who are right where I was and ready for a balanced, healthier and more natural way to live. 🌾🤝🌙
