About Our Mission & Passion towards the Community

"Many of you know me as a Candle Maker & maybe even as an advocate for mental health, but what many of you don't know is that I am also a Social Worker.
Why? It was always a calling to me.
It was a school social worker who noticed my mental health/disorder and my self-harm scars when I was just 12 years old. She got me the help I desperately needed. She saved my life. For as long as I've been conscious of my journey, I knew getting my social work degree was something I had to revisit even if I never used it.
Just a year ago, I was passed up for an amazing opportunity as a social worker. Leading up to the news, all I did was pray that the right path would open up for me. I was terrified of the uncertainty, but I worked hard every day from 4am to 11pm for weeks, sometimes months straight.
Now, I am fulfilling my purpose and blending both careers simultaneously! Connecting and inspiring women from all walks of life, shining light on mental health as a first generation business owner & college graduate, as well as connecting nonprofit organizations to pop-ups and much more!"
