The Root Discovery Project

*****7/15/2026-

hi nancy, thanks for reviewing this, and giving me honest feedback :).

it is a work in progress,and this section (inquiry and intake form) will be a google for that a person links to when clicking on "begin a conversation". - i am developing that google form right now 

Every person has a story. Let's begin there..

The Root Discovery Project begins with a conversation.

Before creating together, I take time to learn about the individual, their interests, their experiences, and what would make a creative session meaningful for them.

Whether you are exploring this for yourself or for someone you love, this first conversation helps us discover how we can create an experience that feels personal, comfortable, and supportive.

Tell me about the person we are creating for.

Name of individual (optional)

Age (optional)

 

Who are you reaching out for?

  • Myself

  • A parent

  • A spouse/partner

  • A family member

  • A friend

  • Other

Tell me a little about them. Who are they?

(Their personality, interests, life experiences, passions, things that bring them joy.)

 

Their story and interests

What are some things they have enjoyed throughout their life?

(Examples: nature, gardening, music, storytelling, travel, family traditions, making things, collecting, cooking, animals, working with their hands.)

Have they had any creative interests or experiences in the past?

Are there meaningful memories, places, traditions, or stories they enjoy sharing?

 

What are you hoping this experience provides?

What inspired you to reach out at this time?

What would you hope they experience through creative sessions?

(Examples: joy, connection, self-expression, confidence, companionship, relaxation, a sense of purpose, exploring something new.)

Creating the right environment

Where would sessions take place?

Understanding their needs

Are there any considerations that would help me create the best experience for them?

(Examples: mobility, energy level, sensory preferences, communication style, cognitive considerations, physical comfort.)

Is there anything important you would like me to know about them before we begin?

Next Step

After receiving your message, I will reach out to schedule a conversation where we can talk more about your loved one's interests, needs, and what type of creative experience would be the best fit.
