About Us

In 2021, Mentally Waisted was created in the middle of getting my Masters Degree in Public Health from UC Davis. 

When I graduated from college and started job hunting, it just didn’t feel right. It didn’t feel like the world I wanted. The world I wanted was to be able to directly touch lives and lift  people up ✨. There was a long period of time when I felt like  I could never be myself and I was bullied for not being able to meet other people’s expectations, which lead to lack of confidence.

When I discovered waist beads the process of making & wearing them gave me a lift of energy & confidence that changed the way I was able to live my life everyday.

This made me realize that women are often bullied because they do not fit what society is expecting or asking & therefore cannot live or be themselves.

This empowered me to have a brand that I am super passionate about and allows me to lift people up and encourage them to ALWAYS  love and be their 100% true authentic self 🫶🏽💘

Healing is not linear and I want to create a safe space for women to take time for themselves on a deeper level. 

 

Love,
