364: How I Created a Wellness Tea Brand That Actually Heals

Hey loves, this episode is so close to my heart. I’m sharing something deeply personal and raw — the messy, magical, behind-the-scenes story of how I launched Chai Tonics, my new Ayurvedic wellness tea brand. This isn’t just about tea — it’s about reclaiming ritual, honoring ancestral wisdom, and finding home within ourselves, one cup at a time.

I spill the truth behind building a CPG brand while mothering two babies, moving cross-country, writing a book, and healing from burnout. If you’ve ever had a dream on your heart that felt too messy, too late, or too scary to pursue, this is your permission slip. Welcome to the real, unfiltered journey of how ritual saved me… and how it can save you too.

Mama, your nervous system deserves a pause. The Chai Tonics Ritual Starter Kit was made to help you reset with blends that support focus, calm, and energy without the coffee crash. Create your sacred moment at https://chaitonics.com with code BRAVE for 15% off.
