Why Strong Roots Matter

If you’ve nurtured perennials, you know they follow a gentle rhythm:

Year 1: Sleep / Roots slowly grow deep beneath the surface

Year 2: Creep / New shoots and small blooms begin to emerge

Year 3: Leap / Full bloom occurs as plant maturity is reached

Growth happens—not all at once—but in time, through quiet investment.

Just like perennial plants, the clients we work with grow steadily when given care, intention, and patience.
