I'sha Gaines and I'm from Dallas, Texas.  I am an Innovative mental health advocate with an extensive education background and unique entrepreneurial drive! By nature, I have a relentless drive to win that some may classify as a “super-power” and I strive to exhibit excellence in all that I do.

After a 12-year teaching career, I decided to switch my career to become a therapist & holistic esthetician after being inspired by my own healing work. My unique career experience has afforded me the opportunity to work with people from all walks of life. I’d like to believe I am a well-rounded, relatable and resourceful self starter. I am a forward thinker who prides myself on using herbalism, aromatherapy and holistic modalities to help heal your mind, body and skin.

My journey to self love has birthed many businesses and essentially has helped me blossom in a way that inspires, encourages and motivates others. I do not shy away from promoting wellness & mental health through social media and love educating through classes and speaking engagements.
