Who Am I?

Hi! I’m Lolonyo—most folks just call me Lo—and I’m the heart behind Ancestral Roots Herbal Remedies. I’m a Certified Community Herbalist (Ecoversity, 2022), Full-Spectrum Doula (DTI-trained, 2025), Reiki Master Practitioner (Natural Healer, 2025), and Certified End-of-Life Doula (Going with Grace, Nov 2024). I’m also currently training as an Intimacy Doula and a Sex & Relationship Coach, deepening my commitment to holding space for connection, healing, and joy in every form.

Ancestral Roots was born from a lifelong passion for natural wellness and a deep reverence for ancestral knowledge. What started with herbal remedies in my kitchen has grown into a full-spectrum healing practice offering herbal support, doula care through birth and death, energy work, spiritual guidance, and more.

As a single mom, cat mama, and proud DMV native-daughter, I bring lived experience, heart, and humor to every aspect of my work. My mission is to support all people—especially Black and Brown folks, LGBTQIA+ communities, and those too often left out of traditional care—with dignity, compassion, and radical presence.

Whether we’re planning, birthing, grieving, or growing, I’m honored to walk beside you.
