In her early years, my daughter was witness to domestic abuse - a trauma that haunted her for years. She struggled immensely with her behaviour, mental health, and her ability to understand and express her emotions. Her thoughts became a constant battle, and as a mother, it was heart-wrenching to watch. We sought help, joined endless waiting lists for children’s mental health services, and explored every avenue for support, yet we found ourselves stuck in a painful limbo. My daughter needed help, and I felt utterly lost.

As fate would have it, I’d previously trained as a mindset coach and was working with clients every day, helping them reshape their lives through the power of mindset. One day, it struck me: could I harness this same approach to help my own child? The idea felt both hopeful and daunting. But I knew I had to try.

I started searching for a mindset journal tailored to children, hoping to find something that could help her express and understand her emotions. But the more I searched, the clearer it became: there was nothing out there that spoke to her unique needs. So, with determination and love, I set out to create my own journal just for her.

During this time, we also faced the potential of an ADHD diagnosis for my son. His struggles with emotions and outbursts were equally challenging. His mind was constantly racing, and he too was finding it hard to make sense of his feelings. So, I created a journal for him as well—something simple, meaningful, something that he could truly connect with.

We began using these journals daily, weaving them into our lives, and the transformation was nothing short of miraculous. My children opened up in ways I hadn’t seen before. Through drawing, writing, and reflection, they found ways to express what was locked inside. I could see their strength blossoming as they took charge of their emotions and mental wellbeing. It was nothing short of life-changing.

I shared our journey on social media, hoping to inspire a few others—and the response was staggering. Parents reached out, desperate for similar resources, having faced the same struggles and lack of support. EmpowHer Box was born out of this collective need. The demand was overwhelming, and it became clear that we’d touched on something deeply needed.

Today, EmpowHer Box has helped hundreds of children and adults on their journey towards emotional resilience, mental wellness, and self-development. Each transformation we witness fuels our mission to do more, to spread the word on mental health, and to continue innovating to support those in need.

We are on a mission to empower, uplift, and provide the tools needed for people to thrive—no matter their journey.

This isn’t just a business. It’s a movement towards healing, towards understanding, and towards a brighter future for everyone touched by EmpowHer Box.
