This summer, Bergen Mama is teaming up with local functional family practice Beckon Prosperity to bring you The Raising Wild Edit — your go-to for holistic tools, local wellness gems, and empowering education that helps families thrive.
Because not too long ago, mothers were the herbalists of every home — the ones who knew which teas soothed a fever, which foods healed the gut, and how to raise resilient kids with nature as their guide. We didn’t lose that wisdom. We just stopped hearing it.
If you’ve ever felt dismissed by doctors, overwhelmed by protocols, or frustrated that something feels off with your child but you can’t quite fix it — you’re not alone. And you’re not crazy. You’re a mother. And your intuition is your greatest tool.
We’re on a mission to help moms take back their rightful seat as the healer of the home — with the support they deserve.
That’s why we’re kicking things off with the Medicine Mama Archetype Quiz — a fun (and eye-opening) way to discover how you naturally show up when your child gets sick, and how you can begin to trust your gut again.
It’s also your first step into Root & Roar — a 6-week guided program created by local mama and holistic practitioner Jennifer Kottke, founder of Beckon Prosperity. Root & Roar blends expert-led advice, foundational health knowledge, access to functional lab testing and supplement guidance, and — maybe most important of all — a community of like-minded momswho are walking the same path.

Because your instincts aren’t just valid — they’re vital.
And we want to hear from you:
