Meet Candace
Hi there! I’m a wellness writer and Fort Worth mom sharing personal reflections, nature’s remedies, DIY beauty rituals, and faith-filled, family-friendly adventures. You are welcome here.
The Journey That Brought Me Here
My passion for holistic wellness began in 2009 while working in community health with immunocompromised patients living with HIV/AIDS. Witnessing their struggles with medication side effects sparked my search for natural remedies that could support healing gently and effectively.
My background in journalism and years working with nonprofits focused on family sustainability taught me that true wellness encompasses every area of life. A healthy body paired with an unhealthy mind, spirit, or relationships creates imbalance.
From Indiana to Southern California, Southern Nevada and now North Texas, I’ve learned to cherish what the earth provides. I’m raising my daughter with this same appreciation for God’s natural healing gifts and the excitement that comes from exploring both our local Fort Worth community and destinations beyond.
What I Believe
You have always been her — before you whittled yourself down or puffed yourself up, before you climbed that mountain or painted your face. The woman you’re seeking has been waiting beneath all the doing and becoming.
God designed creation not just for our healing, but for our pleasure. Whether whisking matcha, crafting DIY skincare, exploring Fort Worth’s hidden gems, or road-tripping to new destinations, everything offers lessons for our lives and opportunities for restoration.
True wellness means caring for the whole person through intentional nutrition, mindful movement, daily self-compassion, and curiosity about both traditional wisdom and modern natural health discoveries.
