The Story Behind Me Time Coffee
Me Time Coffee was born from the realization that the way the world talks about self-care didn’t fit my life.
As an active-duty Marine, entrepreneur, competitive bodybuilder, wife, and dog mom, I wasn’t avoiding self-care. I simply didn’t have the time for the elaborate routines that were often presented as the standard. Spa days, weekend retreats, and hour-long morning routines sounded great, but they weren’t realistic for the demands of my everyday life.
That isn’t to say I didn’t need self-care. After experiencing stress-induced alopecia, it became clear that while I loved having a full and busy life, I still needed intentional moments to slow down and take care of myself along the way.
I realized I didn’t need more time for self-care. I needed self-care that fit into the life I already had. What I discovered was that one of the few moments that already existed in my day was my morning cup of coffee. Instead of rushing through it while checking emails and mentally running through my to-do list, I began using those 10 minutes as an intentional pause before the day began.
That small shift became the foundation for Me Time Coffee.
Why I Created This Brand
I created Me Time Coffee for women who wake up with hundreds of things on their minds.
Women who spend their days caring for families, careers, businesses, clients, teams, and everyone around them.
Women who don’t need another thing added to their to-do list.
They need simple ways to care for themselves within the life they already have.
That’s why every bag of coffee, every candle, and every experience we create is designed to help women pause, sip, and savor the moment.
