ABOUT US:

Raise Wellness started with herbal tea. I’m Jess, and I blend every tea, render every batch of tallow and mix every scrub myself in Arizona.

The idea is simple: wellness should fit into your day instead of taking it over. That means ingredients you recognize, blends that taste good and a short list of products that do what they say.

I also take photographs, build and manage websites, create content and run digital marketing for other small businesses.

What I Believe

• Wellness should feel doable.

• The best solution is often the simplest one.

• Small businesses should back each other up.

Thanks for being here. If you have a question about a blend, send me a note.

Meet the Founder

If you've spent any amount of time around me, you've probably figured out that sitting still isn't exactly my strong suit.

I've always been the person with too many interests, too many ideas, and a running list of projects that somehow keeps getting longer. For years, I thought that was a flaw. I thought eventually I'd have to pick one thing, stay in one lane and become an expert in only that.

Instead, life taught me something different. Some of us aren't meant to fit neatly into a box.

Over the years, I've been a student, a photographer, a business owner, a homeschool mom, a marketer, a creator, a gardener, and a tea blender. Along the way I learned that people want practical help that fits into everyday life.

Not every idea succeeded. Not every plan worked out the way I expected. I've had setbacks, made mistakes, changed directions, started over and learned some lessons the hard way. But every success and every failure taught me something, shaped who I am and helped me grow into the person I am today.

Looking back, I wouldn't change any of it.

What I love most isn't tea, photography, business or even wellness.It's helping people.

I love teaching what I've learned, sharing ideas, solving problems and creating things that make someone's day a little easier, healthier or happier.

Raise Wellness became an extension of that passion.

I didn’t start with a perfect business plan. I started with tea I wanted to drink and a habit of keeping things simple.

When I'm not blending tea or working on the next project that caught my attention, you'll usually find me spending time with my family, reading, learning something new, tending to my garden, or convincing myself that I definitely have room for one more idea.
