Limited to 20 participants • Starts April 22

You've felt this...even if you can't fully explain it.

A pull toward your family.
A curiosity that doesn't go away.
A sense that there's something there for you...

But when you look at your family tree—

It's mostly names.
Dates.
Records

And you've thought: 
  • "I know a lot...but I don't feel connected to it."
  • "I wish I understood what their lives were actually like."
  • "There has to be more here."

There is.

Because your ancestors' lives aren't just part of your past—

They hold patterns, perspective, resilience, and insight that directly shapes how you see yourself today.

You just haven't been shown how to access it yet.

This is The Ancestor Power Project

An 8-week guided experience where you will:
  • Uncover the story of one ancestor
  • Go deeper in your research (with clear guidance)
  • Learn how to interpret what you find
  • And walk away with a method you can use again and again

So that your family history becomes something you don't just know—

...but something that changes how you see yourself.
When I work with clients inside high-level projects like Your Origin Story, I don't just gather records.

I follow a process.

A method that has been refined through:
  • years of professional research
  • real client work
  • and seeing what actually creates clarity, connection, and transformation

This is the method I use with my private clients.

Introducing:
The Rooted Lineage Method™

A 5-step framework for researching your family tree in a way that reveals meaning, patterns, and personal power.
Inside the program, you will be guided through:

1

Build the Foundation

2

Follow the Records

3

Identify Trauma & Resilience

4

Recognize Patterns

5

Integrate the Wisdom

This is what takes genealogy from:

→ information
to
→ understanding + identity + power
You will choose one ancestor to focus on.

And over 8 weeks, you will:
  • Build a timeline of their life
  • Find new records and expand what you already know
  • Place their life in historical and social context
  • Begin to understand what they lived through
  • Identify patterns of hardship, resilience, and decisions
  • Connect their life to your own
  • Write their story in a way that actually means something

What this actually looks like

You might discover:

Your great-grandmother was widowed at 32 with 5 children—and suddenly your own capacity for handling hard things makes more sense
Your ancestor immigrated alone at 16—and you begin to understand where your independence comes from
Patterns of early death, migration, or instability repeat across generations—and you see your family with new compassion
Resilience shows up again and again—and you realize it didn't start with you

What others have experienced

From past students and clients:


The coursework took me through activities I had maybe done before, but I was able to stay more focused on the details. I obtained more depth of knowledge of my ancestors because I was not scattered in my approach. With your instructional videos and guides, the activities made sense. The structure helped me get more out of the information I was collecting,


The thing that I loved the most about this course was the opportunity it gave me to more deeply understand different aspects of my ancestors' lives and that they were real people with ups and downs just like me. I have so much love for them and an increased amount of grace for their life choices. I would have continued knowing next to nothing about them and holding somewhat critical opinions of them if I had not taken the time to learn about them with Megan's help. This has really been life-changing and family-connecting in ways I hadn't expected. I'm so grateful for it!

❌ A course where you just build a bigger family tree
❌ A list of records with no meaning behind them
❌ A passive program you watch and forget

And it's also not:
❌ Vague reflection without real research
❌ Guessing or "making things up" about your ancestors
❌ Overwhelming or time-consuming

This is not:

✅ Guided research + clear next steps
✅ Real records + real context
✅ A structured method that leads to real insight

This is:

This is designed to work with your real life, so you always know what to do next, without feeling overwhelmed or stuck.

You can: 
  • Spend 15-30 minutes a few times a week OR
  • Go deeper if you want to

You will be guided either way.

How the Program Works

Each week follows a simple, supportive rhythm:

Pre-recorded training

Clear, structured lessons so you know exactly what to do

A simple action step

So you can immediately apply what you learned

Live Integration Call

Where we:
  • answer your questions
  • look at what you found
  • help you interpret patterns and meaning
  • guide you deeper into your ancestor's story

This is where the real breakthroughs happen.

+ Ongoing support throughout the week

  • Have uncovered new depth in your ancestor's life
  • Understand their story beyond just facts
  • Recognize patterns in your family line
  • See how their life connects to your own
  • Feel a stronger sense of identity and belonging
  • Have a written story you can keep and share

→ Have a clear method you can use for any ancestor moving forward

By the end of the 8 weeks, you won't just have more information, you'll:

You can ask questions anytime inside the private Facebook Group - so you're never stuck or waiting for help.
Weekly rhythm
  • New training released on Fridays
  • Time to explore + research over the weekend
  • Live Integration Call every Wednesday at 10:00am MDT (first one on April 22)

If you can’t attend live, you’ll still get the replay—and you can submit your questions ahead of time so they can be answered during the call.
Each week, you'll move through a clear, guided process:

Week 1 — Build the Foundation
Choose your ancestor + gather what’s already known

Week 2 — Follow the Records (Part 1)
Census records, timelines, mapping

Week 3 — Follow the Records (Part 2)
Vital records + expanding research

Week 4 — Follow the Records (Part 3)
Additional records + deeper context

Week 5 — Identify Trauma + Resilience
Begin interpreting what you’ve uncovered

Week 6 — Recognize Patterns + Integrate Wisdom
Connect their life to your own

Week 7 — Write Their Story
Turn your research into something meaningful

Week 8 — Closing Circle
Reflect, share, and integrate

You won't be left wondering how to actually do the research

Alongside the 8-week experience, you'll also get full access to:
My complete, step-by-step course that shows you exactly how to:

  • Build your family tree (the right way from the start)
  • Use free tools like FamilySearch to find real records
  • Understand the difference between strong vs. weak evidence
  • Search effectively (so you're not guessing or wasting time)
  • Fix errors and gaps in your tree
  • Confidently continue your research beyond this program


Plus bonus trainings on:

  • Using Ancestry alongside FamilySearch
  • Transferring and organizing your tree
  • Working with hints, public trees, and additional sources

This means you're not just reflecting on your ancestor's life, you're learning how to actually find and understand it.

Hi! I'm Megan

I'm a professional genealogist and the creator of The Rooted Lineage Method™.

For years, I've worked with clients to research their family history—not just to find records, but to understand what those lives actually meant.

Because what I saw over and over again was this:

People had information...
...but they didn't know how to make sense of it.

They didn't know how to:
  • connect the pieces
  • recognize patterns
  • or understand how their ancestors' lives shaped their own

So I developed a method.

One that combines:
  • grounded research
  • with interpretation, context, and integration

This is the exact process I use in my client work.

And now, I'm guiding you through it—step by step.

That's okay.
You'll be shown:
  • what to look for
  • where to look
  • how to use what you find
Plus, you'll have access to Family Tree Foundations to support you as you go.
How much time will this take?
You can spend as little as an hour a week (plus the time for the weekly Integration Call), or go deeper if you have more time.
The more you put in, the more you'll get - but even a small amount of time can lead to powerful insights.

If you're stuck, you can bring it, and we'll work through it together.
