Kendall Dominique is a community nurturer, herbalist, and educator dedicated to helping individuals cultivate sustainable self-care practices. As a Black woman with Filipino ancestry, she honors the wisdom passed down from her lineage.  Blending holistic care practices that center nourishment, balance, and community support. Raised in a home with four generations of wisdom, Kendall was shaped by a legacy of love, laughter, and deep care, which inspired her lifelong commitment to nurturing others.

From a young age, Kendall felt a natural calling to care for those around her. She later pursued this passion academically, earning both a Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Social Work. She has since dedicated the past 13 years to both micro and macro-level nonprofit work, supporting individuals impacted by gender-based violence, human trafficking, and mental health challenges. Through these experiences, Kendall saw firsthand the emotional and heart-centered labor involved in community care. Despite her formal training, she realized that no one had equipped her with the tools to nurture herself through this intense, often overwhelming work.

At just 29, after years of community care work, Kendall experienced burnout. That realization sparked her journey into holistic self-care. She began exploring herbalism, yoga, and healing circles, discovering that while the tools were important, it was the community and space she found along the way that were truly transformative. These practices helped her reconnect with herself, and through that process, the vision for Ancestral Wellness Co. was born. This space is  an ode to her journey, her ancestors, and her community.

Today, Kendall’s work focuses on teaching practical, accessible herbalism that can easily be woven into daily life. She creates healing spaces centered on patience, gentleness, and deep listening, with a commitment to meeting people where they are.
