Rooted in growth. Connected through greatness.

We just knew that our brand had to be connected to a tree with our commitment to roots and grounded confidence...how could it not be?!

That's when the Aspen tree, with its unique qualities, came immediately to mind! Known for its shared root system, Aspen Trees often symbolize community, unity, and connectedness. Because they are often the first tree that will surface after a wildfire, they are also known for their resilience and unshakable spirit. It was only AFTER we landed on the name we also discovered a special connection in the WORD ASPeN.(Amy, Sarah Payne, Neal)

One thing we know for sure is that when people are rooted in their strengths and values, their growth is long-lasting and sustainable. When we were dreaming of a name for Aspen Root Collective we knew that our focus would be on helping teams and individuals get to the root of what matters most- for them and for their organizations.

We are also passionate about rooting people on in their self-development journey! This work is not easy, but it can be fun, engaging, and encouraging.

Let us help you get the to root of your development journey! What do you think is at the root of self-development? Let us know in the comments!
