A Note on Wellness Content

At Rooted In Hope, everything we share comes from a place of lived experience, deep empathy, and a genuine desire to see you thrive. Jacqueline Gore is a survivor, author, and motivational speaker — and she is not a licensed therapist, counselor, psychologist, or medical professional.

All content on this site — including blog posts, product descriptions, speaking content, and any written or recorded material — is intended for informational, inspirational, and educational purposes only. It is not a substitute for professional mental health care, therapy, counseling, or medical advice. Nothing here should be read as a diagnosis, treatment recommendation, or clinical guidance of any kind.

If you are navigating a mental health challenge, please reach out to a licensed professional who can give you the personalized support you deserve. You are worth that care.

If you or someone you know is in crisis, help is available right now. Call or text 988 to reach the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline, available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

You are not alone on this journey. Surviving is just the beginning — and there are people trained to walk alongside you through what comes next.
