Mary Wollstonecraft
In 1792 with the backdrop of the French Revolution, Mary Wollstonecraft wrote, A Vindication of the Rights of Women. In the book, Wollstonecraft argued that women should have the same opportunities as men. She disrupted the status quo by daring to persuade others that women should be given an education and civic rights. Wollstonecraft challenged society by asking the question: what are you afraid of? Women are still fighting for pay equality and a voice in modern society. Naming the company after her was a salute to challenging unjust societal norms.

Several years ago she was diagnosed with an illness, and she found herself in a new world where she emerged as a victim. Once recovered, she tried going back to her old life and was lost.
Avoided social situations to lessen her anxiety
Experienced the “shame loop” for negative self-critical thoughts
Emotionally exhausted but felt the need to achieve more
The Shift: After studying experts in the field of positive psychology and taking small daily action steps, she started to understand that she needed to create new dreams that represented where she had been and where she wanted to go. Out of this experience sprung a desire to share what she had learned with others. Teaching people how to shift habits and destructive thought patterns has become her passion.
