When I unexpectedly became a mother, life cracked open in ways I didn’t anticipate. I had every intention of balancing work, parenting, and a new relationship—but anxiety quickly took over. Even though I had some spiritual practices, they weren’t enough. I was searching for deeper healing, for something real that would meet me where I was. But I had a hard time finding support that actually resonated.
During that time, I also began to realize something deeper: the things I cared most about — spiritual connection healing purpose— needed to become central in my life, not just afterthoughts I squeezed in.
That’s when the idea for Head + Heart was born.
To create a personally curated platform for spiritual discovery. A space to help others find the teachers, practitioners, experiences, and wisdom that my friends and I had discovered—and been changed by. At the time, what I most longed for was someone to cut through the noise of the spiritual industry and say: “Here’s what helped me. Here’s what’s real.”
So that’s what I set out to build.
Today, Head + Heart is known as an insider’s guide to all things wellness. A trusted space for discovery. A place where you can find what truly resonates. The ultimate vibe check for your wellness journey.
