This evening, I'm simply grateful... 🦢✨

Grateful for this community, and grateful for you.

For every student who's told us Rockwell changed their life, and that of their family's...

For all of you who spoke up over the years when I didn't know I, or Rockwell, even made the slightest difference by its existence...

For all the people who took the time to share, to steal a precious moment out of their day, and tell us what a blessing Rockwell is and was to them, thank you.

Those tokens of support are what kept me (and the school) going, when we were but a very small boutique educator.

Before I founded Rockwell School of Holistic Medicine, I knew, after a year of looking for 'the right' holistic educator and failing at every turn, that there were others who were in the same boat. 

They wanted to go to school but there was nowhere they wanted to go, nowhere that called or spoke to them.

They wanted to learn everything we now teach, but they couldn't find the school that taught it. 

Back then I kept thinking someone else would eventually create the school I wanted to go to... I certainly had my fingers crossed.

As time passed, I knew no one else was going to do it.

When I accepted that harsh truth and took myself to task, I began shaping an education informed by decades of study, by the earth wisdom passed down from my father and grandfather, and by a commitment to transparency and questioning even the most holistic of narratives.

I created the school for you who choose Rockwell because the curriculum speaks to your soul and your common sense.

For those seeking an educator who defies convention and teaches morals, ethics, values, and integrity for holistic providers. 

For those ready to embrace their personal and professional authority with pride and joy.

For those who want to honor their calling and serve others in holistic practice.

Thank you for your support over the years that enabled me to keep going, to not give up, and to develop our mission and vision, to light the world in hope and healing and bring natural, functional, holistic medicine into each and every household across the globe.

If you’re subscribed to our newsletters, it’s because you believe the world deserves more in terms of healthcare, more truth, more depth, and more integrity.

You feel a genuine call to serve the collective, and I’m deeply thankful for each and every person who senses that pull and takes steps, small or great, to help heal people, plants, and animals.

Today, seeing this community grow affirms why my vision mattered.

And your vision matters, too. 

If something you need doesn't exist — if you find yourself wishing it did — that's not random. That's your calling. 

Build it. Create what's missing. That's how you live without regret.

Of course, we all may have regrets, but your vision doesn't have to be one of them.  

Visionaries like you are waking up to their calling, and that's why Rockwell keeps changing, growing, and evolving — to support your journey.

We have incredible community offerings coming in the year ahead, all created to strengthen this movement and support your path.

Just remember. You never know who your story will inspire. 

You've all inspired me to no end — through your health turnarounds, your success in helping others heal, and your commitment to this field.

Thank you.

Wishing you a peaceful evening.

Warmest,
Ava Rockwell 🦢✨
