About Us

Hey there, I’m Shakira Hanson, and welcome to our family's creative playground—Hanson Candle Co.

A Spark That Lit Up Our World

It all started with a cozy evening, some candles flickering softly, and a "Ready?" from me to Rick, my partner in everything from life to creativity. Those little flames didn't just light up our room; they sparked a whole new journey for us. From our humble beginnings around our kitchen table, battling sooty walls, to the brainwave that led to Hanson Candle Co., every step has been an adventure.

Candles, Connection, and a Touch of Magic

Creating our candle line was just the beginning. Along came our daughter Raya and with her, a whirlwind of change that pushed me into 3 years of a spiritual awakening. I dove deep internally, supported by my fantastic family, exploring and expanding my consciousness more than I ever thought possible.

From Wax to Wisdom

Our website is your one-stop for all things cozy and enlightening. Dive into Nonesenseland, our beloved blog where we’ve been sharing all the juicy bits— I'll be sharing everything I've learned over the last five years. From savvy business tips to cozy home remedies and deep dives into spirituality, Nonesenseland will be your insider's guide to all the insights that have enriched our lives.

While today it's about candles and tapping, we're always dreaming up new ideas. As Rick and I continue to innovate and create, expect this space to evolve with us. Anything we conjure up will make its way here, promised.

So, are you in? If you're game for more than just candles—if you're looking for tapping into your potential or just eager for a good read—stick around. The party’s just getting started, and it's too good to miss!

With all the love and laughter from our family to yours, Shakira (plus Rick, Raya, and Lila, our furry bundle of joy)
