Clear Minds Meditation Club

In 2017, I dove headfirst into meditation (pun intended) and began documenting my journey on Instagram. I shared how meditation impacted my mood and anxiety. As my practice deepened, I started creating graphics to enhance my social feed, which eventually led to designing t-shirts for friends and others.

During the pandemic, when mental health was a significant topic, my t-shirts gained traction. This success allowed me to sell Clear Minds Meditation Club merchandise at all Tilly's locations.

I never set out to make t-shirts on this journey. My true goal is to spread meditation to a wider audience, share my mental health stories, and show people the various tools they can use during difficult times.
