Holistic Wellness Education at Founder's Corner

Troy Valentine, MHA, RYT-200 Integrated Holistic Educator | Doctoral Student | Restorative Wellness Designer Founder, ValHar Health & ASE Roots Collective 

My journey into healing was not defined by textbooks or titles; it was shaped by the profound moment my mother passed away. Grief became my most significant teacher, revealing the painful truth that our healthcare system is expertly designed to treat symptoms but often overlooks the soul. 

ValHar Health and ASE Roots emerged from this silence as my response to the status quo—a sacred commitment to creating a model of care that sees the person, honors the spirit, and creates space for the story. I believe that "I am because we are." 

My work is deeply rooted in the philosophy of Ubuntu, which emphasizes that healing should be human, dignified, and accessible to all. Whether through a clinical consultation or a restorative ritual, I aim to foster community healing by helping you develop the most innovative "product" we have ever ignored: You. 

The Heart of the Work Through ValHar Health, I challenge traditional healthcare by integrating trauma-informed care with patient-centered empowerment. We don’t just seek problems; we search for the "you" beneath the symptoms. 

Through ASE Roots, I provide a sanctuary for those carrying the burdens of grief and generational stress. Born from a need to "sip, soak, and restore," ASE Roots is a love letter to rural communities—a reminder that your rest is a requirement, and you deserve to be seen. 

My Foundation I bridge the gap between clinical leadership and spiritual restoration, utilizing a diverse background to build systems that honor the whole person: Clinical & Organizational Leadership: As a Doctoral Student in Health Administration and a Master of Healthcare Administration (MHA), I specialize in building trauma-informed cultures and adaptive leadership. 

Somatic & Spiritual Wellness: As a Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT-200), Certified Sound Wellness Practitioner, and Fitness Instructor, I utilize breathwork and somatic grounding to facilitate true restoration. 

Community Cultivation: Through the WayMakers initiative, I design faith-centered, culturally grounded spaces for communal healing. 

My Vow to You I build with intention, lead with integrity, and serve with compassion. 

When you walk through our doors—whether for a tea ritual, a lab review, or a community event—you are not just a client. You are a co-creator in your own restoration. 

You deserve care that honors your whole story. Welcome to ValHar. Welcome to ASE Roots. Welcome to the work of becoming whole.
