Rooted & Rising

Rooted & Rising is a becoming space for women leaders ready to stop shrinking, excavate what's been buried, and lead from their original design.

About

Misty Helm Chadwick is an International Coaching Federation (ICF) Professional Certified Coach (PCC) and Leadership + Identity Architect who has spent more than 20 years inside the rooms where leaders are formed. At Rooted & Rising, she guides and equips women leaders to stop shrinking, reclaim their original design, and lead as the door others need — not the wall in their way.

For the last seven years, her work has focused specifically on the identity work underneath women's leadership because strategy alone never outperforms a broken sense of self.

As a Leadership + Identity Architect, Misty's work lives at the intersection of identity, leadership, and self-leadership. She helps women uncover what has been buried beneath years of performance, heal what has shaped false self-belief, and rise into the leadership they were originally designed to carry.

Her coaching is built on a simple conviction: identity is infrastructure. Everything a woman builds as a leader — her decisions, her relationships, her influence — rests on how well she knows and holds her own design. Most women leaders don't have a confidence problem. They have a shrinking problem, trained over years to take up less room than their design actually requires.

Through the BE HER! Coaching Framework™, Misty guides women through a structured excavation: seeing themselves honestly, uncovering what's been buried, releasing what was never theirs to carry, and building a leadership practice that finally matches who they actually are.

The Identity Audit is a free guide for the woman leader who knows something is off but doesn't yet have language for it. Five questions that go beneath the surface of your leadership and into the deeper architecture of who you believe yourself to be. This is not a quiz. It is not a personality test. It is the beginning of an excavation.

Testimonials

“Shoutout to Misty Helm Chadwick. Thank you for your time, motivation, and guidance. She gave me the BOOST I needed. I recommend her if you're serious about getting your priorities and thoughts on track. She's THE ONE.”

- SXSW Coaching Client

"Before working with Misty, I wandered through life without a clear sense of direction and let the pain of my past define my identity. After going through the work with her, I know who I am and now walk into rooms with my head held high. I understand my unique values, strengths, and purpose, and I'm positioned to make a real impact in my work and my family. If you want to discover your unique purpose and learn some great lessons along the way, I highly recommend working with Misty."

- — Emerging, High-Potential Leader

"Before working with Misty, I knew I was a leader, but I felt completely lost within my organization. I was battling imposter syndrome, overwhelmed, and teetering on the edge of burnout. I had already tried all the 'typical' tools and advice people turn to in those moments. While some of it helped a little, nothing truly shifted. Now, I stand in a place of confidence. I am rooted in my worth and walking in my power. I'm deeply grateful for this experience!"

- — Nonprofit Executive

"My time working with Misty was truly transformative. I had been yearning for support from someone who understood my lived experience as a mother and a BIPOC woman, and who had deep expertise in leadership. I honestly thought I'd never find someone who embodied all of that — until I met Misty."

- — Executive Leader, BIPOC Woman in Leadership

"Nothing truly shifted — until my time with Misty."
