About Us

Hi there, I’m the person behind The Mindful Tee Co.

For a long time, life moved fast. Too fast. I worked long hours, chased deadlines, and measured my worth by how much I could get done in a day. The harder I pushed, the further away peace seemed to get. I didn’t notice how much the stress was changing me — how it was wearing me down and spilling over into everything else. I thought that was just how life was supposed to be.

Eventually, everything caught up with me. I hit a point where I couldn’t keep going the way I had been. Starting therapy changed everything. It wasn’t easy — it meant unlearning a lot of habits I thought made me “successful.” But it also helped me see that there’s a different way to live. One that isn’t about constantly performing or proving, but about being present. Slower. Kinder. Real.

That shift became the heart of The Mindful Tee Co. We started this as a way to carry that message into everyday life — through designs that remind us to breathe, to slow down, to find light even in heavy moments. We stay away from dark, gloomy tones not because they’re bad, but because life already gives us enough of those. We want to create things that feel hopeful, calm, and alive — gentle reminders that joy and presence are possible, even when the world feels loud.

For a long time, I misunderstood therapy. I thought it was for people who were “really struggling,” not for someone who just felt stuck or stressed. But the truth is, everyone needs support at times. We all go through things that test us, and there’s no shame in reaching out for help. The more we talk about mental health with honesty and compassion, the easier it becomes to see that we’re all human — all learning, all healing, all doing our best.

What began as a personal wake-up call has turned into something bigger — a small reminder that slowing down isn’t giving up; it’s choosing to live differently. Through The Mindful Tee Co., we hope to share that spirit: to live with more intention, to care for our mental well-being, and to celebrate the beauty of simply being here.

Have a Happy Day,
Wes
