Welcome!

I’m Christi, an experienced Holistic Caregiver based in Oregon. As a Certified Perinatal Doula, Integrative Nutrition Coach, and Personal Care Companion. I’m passionate about empowering individuals to take charge of their well-being and achieve their life goals. My holistic approach supports the mind, body, and spirit, helping you navigate each stage of your journey with care and compassion.

What is a doula?

A doula is a trained professional birthing companion who provides physical, emotional, and informational support to a person before, during, and shortly after childbirth. The goal of a doula is to help the birthing individual feel safe, informed, and empowered throughout the birth process. Doulas offer continuous care and advocacy, helping clients navigate their birthing experience in a way that aligns with their preferences and needs.

About me

I’m Christi Russell, a passionate advocate for holistic wellness and transformation. My journey into this field began 13 years ago when I was able to reverse all symptoms of ulcerative colitis through radical changes in my diet and habits, successfully avoiding a colectomy. This experience ignited my deep commitment to helping others heal and thrive naturally.

I became a Certified Integrative Nutrition Coach in 2019, and a Certified Perinatal Doula in 2024. Through my work, I aim to bridge the gap between health, wellness, food, and exercise, offering individuals the tools to achieve their personal goals, whether it’s in parenthood, mental wellness, or food for healing.

One of my core missions is to help reduce the infant mortality rate, especially among Black women, by providing education, empowerment, and support throughout the birth journey.

I’m here to help you discover your path to wellness and create lasting change through mindful, holistic practices.

At Roots to Radiance Wellness, anti-racism is at the core of everything we do. Our approach acknowledges that health and wellness are deeply intertwined with systems of oppression that have historically marginalized BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color) communities. We aim to disrupt these systems by offering care that is not only inclusive but also actively challenges inequities, providing all clients with culturally sensitive, trauma-informed, and equitable care.
