I’m the founder of BlessedMantra, and my journey into the world of symbols, energy, and personal growth started during one of the most challenging times of my life. Born in the U.S. and raised surrounded by a mix of cultures, I never fully explored the deeper meanings behind my heritage until life threw me unexpected hurdles. In 2021, like so many others, my world turned upside down as the pandemic reshaped everything. By 2022, after long periods of isolation and the emotional challenges of a long-distance relationship, I found myself stuck. Work became a struggle due to cultural differences and complex interpersonal dynamics. The isolation weighed heavily, and for a long time, I didn’t know how to ask for help.
In 2023, things took a sharp turn. I lost my job, and my boyfriend and I ended our long-distance relationship. He also lost his job, and with no extra funds for a wedding, life felt overwhelming. Then, I discovered I was pregnant. The weight of it all made every day a battle to keep my emotions in check, but the sense of helplessness was real. I withdrew from the world, choosing silence over sharing my struggles.
It was during this dark moment that I received a gift—a talisman, a symbol of protection, with mantras on it, sent from a friend in Asia. This small, powerful gesture ignited something within me. The symbols and mantras carried not just beauty, but love, energy, and blessings, reminding me that I was not alone, even when I felt completely isolated. This gift was the catalyst that pushed me to reconnect with my roots, dive into deeper spiritual exploration, and start a journey of self-growth.
