About
Chloé McNally
HMI Wellness® Master Practitioner™ · Jiu Jitsu Champion · Founder of Sacredly Rooted Wellness
I grew up competing. Before I was old enough to drive, I was traveling every weekend to horse shows and spending every moment I wasn't in school training, working off my rent at the barn, and getting ready for my competitions. As a 13-year-old Junior equestrian, I competed at an elite level against adults, training under demanding coaches whose methods left marks I would not fully understand until years later. Ultimately, I burned out and faded away, moving far away from California and from my home and the horses I loved.
I got a scholarship to attend University in New York City where I fell into another competitive sport, Jiu Jitsu. For 12 years I competed professionally at the highest levels of the sport, traveling the world, earning titles, building a reputation as a disciplined and technical athlete. I reached the highest level of my sport with three podium finishes at the Black Belt World Championships, Pan American Championships and Brazilian Nationals. I was teaching classes at one of the biggest schools in New York City.
From the outside it looked like everything was working.
What people could not see was what years inside certain training environments cost me. Throughout my life, I spent significant time under coaches and in environments that broke me down. The damage lived in my nervous system, in my gut, in the beliefs I formed about my worth, my safety, and how I believed I had to earn my place by tolerating what was happening around me and to me. My body broke down as my internal systems broke down.
I was depleted in a way that sleep could not fix and my body was screaming for attention. I ignored every stomach ache, anxiety-fueled heart palpitation, popped joint, and stretched ligament. I trained through everything and I was unraveling from the inside out. I had many career-threatening, debilitating injuries that I came back from, each one more serious than the last.
I went looking for answers the way most high performers do.
I tried everything conventional medicine offered. I read everything I could find. I worked with practitioners, therapists, and coaches. Most of it was just a bandaid for a gushing wound. None of the practices and methodologies got to the root issues.
It wasn't until I found my spiritual teacher and mentor, Liana Shanti, that I was introduced to real healing work and began healing core wounds that completely changed the course of my life.
Through Liana's core wound and emotional healing programs, I began to understand the patterns underneath the performance. The beliefs formed in abusive environments. The nervous system responses that had become my baseline. The wounds that had shaped everything from how I competed to how I saw myself. I reconnected with myself, my real self that had always been there, buried below the toxic debris. I reconnected with Jesus and my life completely changed.
During that time I also came upon the HMI Wellness® Candida Cleanse. My first official physical and emotional detox that allowed me to clear my whole body of toxic sludge that I had been carrying with me for years. When the physical burden finally lifted, space opened up and I felt clarity and levity like I never had before. My nervous system finally had the capacity to regulate. My body learned how to move beyond survival mode and operate from a place of grounded clarity. I was hopeful. Excited and even joyful.
Shortly after, I moved to Austin, TX where I continued to train in high-level environments but in a way that does not cost me my peace, my physical and mental health.
I coach and teach others to do the same. A few years ago, I became an HMI Wellness Master Practitioner™ to help guide others to heal and clear their bodies in the powerful and profound ways I learned to do the same.
I am now licensed and certified through Liana Shanti's programs to guide others through this same work, including her core wound programs and Quantum Mind-Body Therapy® work.
I built Sacredly Rooted because I needed it and it did not exist.
I needed a practitioner who understood the body at a clinical level and the soul at a human one. Who has been inside high-performance environments and knows what they ask of you and how exactly they can take from you. Who has healed not just symptoms but the deeper patterns underneath them.
I work with women who are high-performing, deeply capable, and running on a foundation that is quietly crumbling. Women who have tried everything and are ready to finally go to the root. Women who deserve a safe, genuinely supportive and proven healing environment.
The protocols I use are the same ones that healed my own body. The emotional and nervous system work I offer is the same work that gave me my life back.
I know what it takes. I know what is possible. And I know how to guide you through it.
If any part of this story feels uncomfortably familiar, if you have been performing at a high level while quietly depleting yourself, you're in the right place. If you've been searching for something that actually gets to the root of what is happening in your body and in your life, I am so happy you found your way here.
This work exists because I needed it. And it is here for you now.
