About Us

We are a small family business that started during 2020 - that's right. In the midst of a pandemic. I (Kadi) had just escaped an abusive relationship with an infant on my hip (lost my job + my home) and spent a lot of time figuring out how to rebuild our life as a newly single mama. 

It led me to a big reversion with my Catholic faith. 

The Lord really put this small business on my heart and in more ways than one it has helped heal pieces of me that only a good Father would have known it could. If you'd had told me years ago this is what I would be doing...goodness. 

A little bit about me: My background is primarily in the beauty industry. I'm a beauty school graduate + worked as a professional makeup artist for a while, among other things. Before that I went to school for writing; the dream was to become an author. I never finished, but it's still a dream and Lord willing part of my future. 

I love animals, obsessed with all things Christmas, heat up my coffee 4x a day, (anyone else?) my husband is my best friend  (I'm his biggest fan), My heart was forever changed as a NICU mama who suffered a placental abruption at 28 weeks...and I'm fully bi-lingual (spanish - soy boricua!) 

FAST FORWARD 2025 : I am happily married to the love of my life, the other (mostly unseen) part of Kerygma. His name is Juan, and he's the easiest 'yes' of my lifetime. He keeps our workspace tidy so that I don't have to. He's also the guy running all drop offs to the post. Without his support, chasing our children around, keeping me tidy, lifting all the heavy supply shipments I order and hyping me up when I'm stressed or stuck...I don't know where this little business would be. Shout out to you; my handsome husband and my favorite professional candle sniffer. Team work makes the dream work.
