Rooted Exchange
Rooted Exchange is a reflective storytelling podcast for women navigating identity, motherhood, partnership, ambition, healing, and the quiet inner work of becoming. Hosted by communications strategist and mother Rachael Adair, the show creates space for the conversations many women carry privately — the ones that live beneath the roles, expectations, and mental load of everyday life.
Each episode invites listeners into honest, living-room-style dialogue with women, practitioners, and thoughtful advocates who are exploring what it means to live awake in their bodies, relationships, and choices. Through intimate interviews and solo reflections, Rooted Exchange examines topics like reparenting ourselves while raising children, embodiment and mental health, body autonomy, grief and transition, career shifts, partnership, and the invisible labor women perform every day.
This is not a podcast about fixing yourself. It’s a place to name what feels heavy, to set down what you’ve been carrying, and to remember that you are not alone.
Rooted Exchange is rooted in the belief that healing and clarity grow through shared language and mutual care, that when women speak honestly, something opens. Listeners are invited not just to consume stories, but to participate in a growing community grounded in reflection, compassion, and collective support.
Whether you’re in a season of transition, questioning who you’re becoming, or simply craving deeper conversation, Rooted Exchange offers a steady place to pause, listen, and return to yourself.

Rooted in Your Body: Pelvic Floor Health (Leaks, Pain, Pressure) & Why Common Doesnt Mean Normal
Common doesn’t mean normal.

Rachael talks with Dr. Jessica Hund (pelvic floor PT, founder of The Floor PDX) about why the 6-week clearance isn’t a real healing plan, why Kegels aren’t always the answer, and how to advocate for pelvic floor care that feels safe and trauma-informed.
