Meet Kasha Hennes

Hello, and welcome! I’m truly honored you’re here, exploring, noticing, and wanting to learn more about the people behind The Well Source. 

My wellness journey began quietly, nearly twenty years ago, after watching two very close family members pass away far too quickly from cancer. At the time, I didn’t have language or answers. I was simply noticing. Sitting with question marks. Wondering why. I was young, naive, and not yet ready to dive deep, but something had been planted. 

In my early twenties, I worked on a cattle ranch in Colorado. One moment from that time has stayed with me vividly. I was hiking a foothill with the elderly owner of the ranch. I considered myself fairly “fit,” but as we climbed, he moved ahead of me effortlessly. A seventy-year-old man, breathing easy, steady and strong, while I struggled to keep pace. I stopped in my tracks, not just physically, but mentally. 

What was he doing differently? 

Why was his body so capable when people decades younger were not? 

How was his life so drastically different from my relatives who had died in their fifties? 

The answer was simple, yet profound. He grew his own food, raised his own meat, preserved what he harvested, and lived in relationship with the land, not as something separate from him, but as something he belonged to. 

Years later, when I found out I was pregnant for the first time, my curiosity turned into urgency. I was deeply grateful and incredibly excited, but also scared. What should I eat? What should I clean my home with? What diapers were safe? The list of dos and don’ts given to new mothers is endless. Google was not a comfort. For every source that said one thing, ten others contradicted it. It felt like running on a hamster wheel with no clear answers, just noise. 

Like Liz, my journey deepened through food. I’ve always loved cooking and baking, and that love grew into making my own tinctures, herbal elixirs, cleaning products, and topical remedies. I studied holistic nutrition therapy and herbalism, which eventually led to the birth of my first business, an herbal beverage line. Those early days were humble, filled with late nights and learning curves. I became a new mother and a new business owner at the same time, and somehow it felt like I was seeing the world clearly for the first time. I realized how much I didn’t know, and how much there was still to learn. 

Over the years, my frustration with conventional medicine deepened. I suffered from debilitating migraines for decades with no real answers, only prescriptions. I later experienced a near-death event in which I hemorrhaged severely, requiring fourteen blood transfusions and two emergency surgeries. After surviving that, and following several stroke-like episodes unrelated to that event, I was eventually diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease and chronic mold illness. What followed were dozens of doctors, normal labs, dismissive explanations, and an endless rotation of pills to try. Rarely was anyone willing to step back, connect the dots, or look at my body as a whole. It was exhausting, and it made clear how often people are left searching for answers on their own.

As I moved through food, healthcare, and birth work, one theme kept surfacing: disconnect. While each person is undeniably unique, we are also one whole, integrated being. Our minds, bodies, and inner lives are not separate systems, they are woven together. Too often, care is divided into parts instead of centered on the person as a whole, leaving gaps where understanding and true support should be. 

Blood doesn’t stop at one system. Hormones don’t operate in isolation. Muscles, bones, nervous system, emotions, all of it is connected. It became unfathomable to me that we are so “advanced,” and yet so far behind. 

When a plant wilts and turns yellow, we don’t just treat the single leaf. We tend the soil. This is no different with a human being. 

Pregnancy and birth were part of this picture as well. 

Pregnancy, birth, and postpartum support are very near and dear to my heart. My own birth experience made me acutely aware of how much continuity, presence, and advocacy matter during one of the most vulnerable transitions in a woman’s life. Thankfully, I had a wonderful 

doula by my side, and that support left a lasting impression. As soon as my oldest daughter was born, I knew I wanted to offer that same steadiness and care to other women, which led me to pursue doula training. 

Over time, these threads began to weave together. 

Outside of this work, I’m a mom to three girls, which grounds and shapes everything I do. I’m happiest outdoors, in nature, traveling, camping, kayaking, hammocking, listening to live music, foraging, canning, and baking. These rhythms keep me connected, curious, and rooted in the same principles I believe are essential to well-being. 

The Well Source is the extra mile. 

It is the space created when dead ends feel everywhere. 

It exists to help women reconnect with themselves again. 

To emphasize that we are not a bunch of Lego pieces clipped together, but a very intricate web of energy, life, and systems that depend on each other. 

Supporting women in all four trimesters matters. 

Treating the whole body matters. 

There is support. 

Humans would not have survived as long as we have if our bodies did not know what to do, how to adapt, and how to thrive. 

The Well Source exists to honor that truth.
