The story behind The BurntOut Collection

I’ll forever be grateful for experiencing burnout.

Yep! You read that right. When I was burnt out, it felt like I was stuck in emotional quicksand. Now, pair that with being in quarantine and you get a hobby that quickly turned into a business idea. It lit a fire under my ass, no pun intended. I’m a full-time mental health therapist and a part-time candle maker trying to get you to see the beauty within burnout. It gives you permission to embrace tuning in and listening to your body’s needs.

Candle making is not only an experience, it’s a ritual— music, math, fragrance oils, wax, on repeat. It engages all my senses in a way that gives me permission to be fully present and step away from the chaos of the world for a moment.

From there, I intended to curate a candle experience for you to do just that, to turn inward and be present. Everything was chosen with intention— the ingredients, the scents, the entire process is meant to turn lighting a candle into creating a sanctuary. Each candle comes with a self created burnt out meditation to give you a moment to hold space for yourself and step away from the outside world.

Curated for therapists, burns for everyone.

Our signature candles were originally designed with therapists in mind, helping them unwind after long days of holding space for others. Whether they needed a scent to ground themselves after a tough session or something to set the vibe in their office. I want to share that intention with everyone beyond the healers, these candles are here to bring you back to center.

Each candle is infused with therapeutic essential oils that promote relaxation and grounding. Crafted to ease stress and anxiety, our candles harness the power of scent to create a peaceful environment where you can focus on the now, let go of distractions, and nurture your well-being.

Made with all-natural vegan soy wax and cotton wicks, these candles burn cleanly and slowly, providing hours of tranquility. The carefully chosen aromas, such as lavender, sandalwood, lilac, and patchouli, are designed to ease tension, boost your mood, and ground your spirit.

The Burnt Out Candle Collection is here to guide you back to a state of inner peace and mindfulness. Embrace the soothing scents and let your senses lead you to a place of rest and renewal.
