About Jessy Raspiller
Venture Well is rooted in my personal journey – one that’s been anything but a straight line.
​
For as long as I can remember, I have followed the quiet pull of nature — the way it speaks in whispers through the wind, the way it holds us in its steady rhythm. As a child of the Sonoran Desert, I wandered barefoot across sun-warmed earth, collecting quartz and listening to the language of the land.
​
But like many, I drifted from that knowing. In college, I searched for belonging, trying to shape myself to the world instead of moving in rhythm with it. Then, in 2004, I discovered yoga - a return to breath, to movement, to the body’s innate wisdom. While physical postures were part of the practice, it was the deeper philosophy of yoga — the connection to something greater, the attunement to the body’s innate wisdom - that left its imprint on me. That imprint is woven in everything I do.
In 2014, I began sharing my voice as the founder of Ventura Pop Up Yoga, holding space in parks, on island cliffsides, in wild landscapes where people could move and breathe under open skies. Even then, I sensed there was more - a deeper layer to healing that extended beyond the mat.
I followed that instinct, gathering in living rooms and quiet spaces, offering trauma-informed movement, energy work, and intuitive guidance. I began to understand the body as a storyteller - holding memories, wisdom, and the power to restore itself when given the right support.
Meanwhile, the land was still calling. In 2018, I drove solo through Montana and Idaho, letting the rivers and mountains teach me. I learned to listen — to the silence, to the shifts of the seasons, to the medicine already alive in the earth. A chance meeting in Missoula led me to Green Path Herb School, where I deepened my studies in herbalism.
By 2022, I was ready to step into my calling, opening Ventura’s first Somatic Spa and Herbal Apothecary.
Where I Am Now
Today, my work is devoted to helping us find balance in a modern world—bridging ancient healing practices with the realities of our everyday lives.
Through Aroma Fusion, I offer a deeply intuitive approach to healing—combining energetic bodywork, aromatherapy, and touch therapy to help regulate the nervous system and restore harmony.
Through herbal services in the Apothecary, I guide others in reconnecting with plant medicine—offering custom formulations, education, and rituals to help people return to their roots.
Whether through touch, scent, or ceremony, my hope is that each offering brings you home—to your body, to the earth, to the quiet knowing that you are already whole.
Now is the time that we can all begin to draw from the Well of Life
