Reclaim Your Power. Step Into the man You’re Meant to Be.

Welcome to The Rooted Man — helping midlife men restore energy, reduce stress, and reconnect with their purpose — through holistic coaching that balances body, mind, and mission.

You’ve built a life, but something feels off. You’ve achieved success, but the fulfillment and inner peace you crave seem just out of reach.

The Rooted Man will help you realign with your core, stepping into the powerful role model and leader you were always meant to be.

This is for you if...

✅ You’ve hit a wall. Career’s steady, life’s fine — but deep down, you know you’re capable of more. You’re not done growing, but something’s holding you back.

✅ You’ve been managing stress with quick fixes — scrolling your phone, having that extra drink, zoning out in front of the TV — but it’s not working anymore. You’re not just tired, you’re drained.

✅ You carry the weight. Provider. Protector. The guy everyone counts on. But when’s the last time someone asked what you need — or if you’re actually okay?

✅ You’ve put others first for years — your family, your team, your responsibilities. And in the process, parts of who you are have faded. You're wondering when it's your turn to come alive again.

✅ You’ve tried making changes — fitness, habits, routines — but nothing sticks. You start strong, then fall off. You’re tired of the cycle and ready for a real shift.

✅ You’re questioning if your best days are behind you — or if you’ve slowly become someone you swore you’d never be. The fire’s still there. You just need to reignite it.

✅ You’re done letting that inner critic run the show — the one telling you you’re not strong enough, rich enough, fit enough, man enough. It’s time to shut him down and take the wheel.

✅ You’re ready to lead again. In your health, your mindset, your purpose — for yourself, your family, your legacy. No more sitting on the sidelines. It's time to show up like the man you know you can be.

It’s time to stop letting fear, distractions, and self-doubt control your life. This is your chance to lead from within, to become the healthiest version of yourself - living with vitality and freedom. You can be the man you’ve always known you were meant to be.

Hi, I’m Je' Von Ikner

I’m a men’s coach who helps high-achieving men in their 40s break free from burnout, reconnect to purpose, and lead from grounded power - all while creating sustainable, optimal fitness and health.

But I didn’t get here by coasting—I got here by crashing.

A few years ago, I looked successful on the outside but was silently falling apart. I burned out, numbed out, and nearly lost myself in the process. That breakdown became the turning point that changed everything.

Want to know how I got here—and how I help other men rise?

  • I help high-performing men in their 40s break free from burnout, reconnect to their purpose, and live with optimal health, grounded power and integrity.

    But I didn’t learn this from a book—I lived it.

    In 2018, my life looked solid from the outside: new marriage, new baby, successful career. But behind the scenes, I was unraveling. My mother had just been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer. Our dog died. I was walking away from a career that had given me community and identity. And I told no one—not even my wife—what I was going through.

    I believed that needing support made me weak. So I bottled it up and coped the only ways I knew how:

    • Drinking every day

    • Numbing with kratom

    • Overtraining to punish myself

    • Avoiding grief

    • Overworking

    • Burning out my nervous system

    • Hiring coaches hoping they’d “save” me

    I was a health professional whose health was collapsing. My energy was shot. I couldn’t sleep. My lymphatic system was sluggish. I was exhausted, ashamed, and completely disconnected from who I was.

    That rock bottom was my wake-up call.

    From that place, I zoomed out and asked the hard question:
    “Who am I being—and is this how I want to show up for my wife, my son, my purpose, and myself?”

    That question changed everything.

    I made a decision to stop outsourcing my power. I got honest about my patterns. I stopped performing and started healing. I rebuilt my body, my energy, my marriage, and my mission—from the inside out.

    That journey became The Rooted Man—the coaching experience I now guide men through.

    I created this work for men like you: grounded achievers who’ve hit success but still feel like something’s missing. Men who are tired of numbing, tired of pretending, and ready to reclaim their health, their clarity, and their truth.

    As a Chek Holistic Lifestyle Coach, yoga teacher, and personal trainer with a decade of experience—and more importantly, as a man who’s been to the edge and climbed his way back—I offer a real, embodied path forward.

    I’m not here to fix you. You’re not broken.
    I’m here to help you remember who you are, clear the noise, and lead from your deepest integrity.

    If you’re ready to rise—not just in your body, but in your life—let’s talk.
    Your next chapter starts when you stop running from yourself.
