About this listen

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- The Art of Falling Back in Love With Your Life
    Oct 7 2025

    There was a time when life felt light when the sun hit your face, the music was loud, and the future felt wide open. But somewhere between the bills, the business, the responsibilities, and the scrolling, you drifted away from that version of yourself who simply loved being alive.

    In this episode of Rooted + Wild

    You’ll hear:

    🌿 How to recognize when you’ve fallen out of love with your own life

    📱 Why the doom scroll is quietly stealing your joy

    💛 The beauty of small devotion — lighting the candle, playing the song, serving coffee in bed

    🔥 How long-term love, marriage, and motherhood can be part of your reconnection

    🌸 The freedom that comes when you stop comparing and start being


    This episode will remind you that you don’t have to rebuild everything. You just have to start noticing the parts that are still worth loving.

  • Rooted + Wild- Romanticizing Your Life Every Day (even when its hard)
    Sep 23 2025

    We spend so much of life waiting for the big moments the vacation, the milestone, the dream house but what if the real power is in learning to love the in-between?

    In this episode of Rooted + Wild, I open up about what it means to romanticize your life daily, even when it feels messy, overwhelming, or nothing like you pictured. From chaotic seasons of motherhood and business to quiet rituals like morning matcha, candles, sunsets, and laughter with my kids, I share how choosing beauty in the middle changed everything for me.
