About Us

🕯️ We Make Candles. And Magic. And Mayhem. (The Good Kind.)

Hey, I’m Shakira Hanson — the creative fire behind Hanson Candle Co., quantum life coach, lover of good scent, deep chats, and calling bullshit on the stories that keep us small.

This brand? It started from cupboards full of empty candle jars. Literally. I was so over cheap, shit candles and jars taking over the house.

My partner Rick and I were melting wax in our kitchen one night and asked the question that changed everything:

“Could we actually make refillable candles?”

Turns out, we could.

And while the candles caught on quickly, what followed lit me up in ways I never saw coming…

💥 Then I Broke. And Rebuilt. And Remembered Who I Was.

Enter: baby, burnout, breakdown.
Postnatal depression, identity loss, spiritual awakening — the full bingo card.

I hit rock bottom… and then found my power buried underneath it all.
I didn’t just “find myself.” I activated her.
Through EFT tapping, energy healing, quantum work, and LOTS of tears, I rebuilt my entire internal world.

Now? I teach others to do the same.

💫 What We Are Now

Hanson Candle Co. isn’t just a candle brand.
It’s a portal. A vibe. A whole-ass frequency shift.

We still make our award-winning massage candles and soy refills —
but now we also offer:

  • The Absolut3 — where you’ll find tapping, hypnosis, mindset resets, and emotional liberation

  • Nonesenseland — our no-filter blog + podcast for business, spirituality, and surviving motherhood with grace (and swearing)

Whether you’re here for a sensual glow, a soul realignment, or just wanna feel something that smells like “I’ve got my shit together” — you’re home.

💌 Wanna Join the Journey?

You don’t have to be perfect. Or “healed.” Or high-vibe 24/7.
You just have to be open. To magic. To softness. To remembering who the fuck you are.

Welcome to our world.
Shakira, Rick, Raya & Lila (our 4-legged emotional support gremlin)
