Creating awareness for Women's Heart Health for American Heart Month
A tea-centered approach to women’s heart health through simple rituals and self-care.

A tea-centered approach to women’s heart health through simple rituals and self-care.
In 2024, during my recovery from heart valve surgery, I unexpectedly found myself navigating cardiac depression. Tea became an anchor for me during a time when life felt unsteady and unreliable.
It wasn’t just something to drink — it became a ritual. A gentle practice that helped calm my nervous system and ground me during one of the hardest seasons of my life.
The Helicopter Daughter has always been rooted in self-care and wellness, but this experience reshaped my understanding of what true self-care looks like. In 2025, I felt called to create Badass Tea Co.™ not simply to sell tea, but to bring awareness to how tea and self-care truly go hand in hand — helping people slow down, reconnect, and find strength in every cup.

This FREE Slow Mornings Mini Reset Guide was created for women who are ready to gently begin caring for themselves again.

When I went through heart valve surgery, my world shifted in ways I didn’t expect. Recovery was not just physical — it was emotional, mental, and deeply personal. I struggled with learning how to trust my body again. Every new sensation made me pause. Every spike of fear reminded me how vulnerable healing can feel.
During that time, I discovered that the moments between medical appointments, follow-ups, and long days of recovery were the hardest. There is no guidebook for the mental load of healing. No roadmap for what you’re supposed to feel. And no warning about how much of recovery happens after the surgery is over.
Tea became something steady I could turn to — an anchor. It calmed my nervous system when my thoughts raced. It gave me something grounding to hold onto when my body felt unfamiliar. It reminded me to breathe and that every day of rest was a day of healing.
Today, as a Certified Self Care Coach & Tea Educator, I combine my personal recovery journey with training in tea and women’s wellness to help other women feel more supported in their own bodies. Through Badass Tea Co. and The Helicopter Daughter Tea Studio, I create small-batch teas and down-to-earth education focused on heart health, stress support, gentle energy, and realistic self-care.
If you’re rebuilding your health, navigating midlife changes, or simply looking for simple ways to feel better in your day, you’re in the right place.
