Finding Home in the Journey
Heather Tschopp March 7. 2025
Why Rooted & Roaming?
What does it mean to feel at home? Is it a place? A structure? Or is it something deeper—something we carry within us, waiting to be rediscovered?
In recent years, I’ve felt a pull—something whispering to me that life could be different. By learning from others who have built homesteads successfully, I discovered something important. I realized it was possible to live in harmony with the earth. It is also possible to live harmoniously with each other and with the deepest parts of myself. Before my awakening, I couldn’t see a path to live that dream. But now, I realize it was there all along—I just hadn’t recognized it yet.
I used to believe that home was something you built, a destination you arrived at. I peeled back more layers. With each layer, I realized that home isn’t just a place. It’s a way of being.
That’s where Rooted & Roaming was born.
Rooted in Purpose. Roaming Toward Destiny.
The name came to me like a message from something greater than myself. Two words that, on the surface, seem to contradict each other—but together, they form the foundation of my path.
🌱 Rooted—Grounded in truth and spirituality. Anchored in a vision of community, sustainability, and deep connection to the land. The roots of this journey run deep. They intertwine with a dream of creating a place where like-minded souls can come together to build. They can come together to heal. They can come together to thrive. A treehouse homestead where we not only exist but truly live.
🌿 Roaming—The freedom to explore, to evolve, to trust the unknown. Roaming isn’t about being lost; it’s about being guided. It’s about listening to the quiet nudges of the universe. It involves following synchronicities. You allow the road ahead to unfold in divine timing.
Together, Rooted & Roaming represents the balance between stability and adventure. It is about planting our dreams deep into the earth. It also involves allowing the winds of change to carry us forward.
A Call to Those Who Feel It, Too
Maybe you’ve felt it—that whisper, that knowing, that feeling that there’s something more waiting for you. Maybe you’ve dreamed of a life where community replaces competition. You might imagine a place where nature is your home. It’s a life where your soul can finally breathe.
If any part of that speaks to you, then maybe you’re meant to be part of this journey. Maybe you’re one of the kindred spirits. You are drawn to a new way of living. This way aligns with love, peace, and purpose.
I don’t have all the answers. But what I do have is a vision—a dream that’s unfolding one step at a time. And if you’re reading this, maybe that dream isn’t just mine. Maybe it’s ours.
Wandering Home
This isn’t just about me. It’s about all of us who have felt like we didn’t quite fit into the mold of society. It’s about those who are ready to carve a new path, one that leads to something real, something lasting.
This is the beginning of something beautiful.
And wherever this journey leads, one thing is certain: we are all wandering home. Will you join me?
