MY STORY
Welcome to Zen by Wren ♡
I’m Wren, and my purpose in this lifetime is to foster healing through mental health awareness and the power of manifestation. By sharing my own thoughts, experiences, and struggles, I aim to create a space where everyone feels seen, heard, understood, valued, and supported. My vision is simple: to make every person I encounter feel worthy of love, care, and respect.
My journey to where I am today has been anything but traditional. I was homeschooled for most of my education, and with determination, I graduated a year early. I then pursued a diploma in social work, but as life often does, it led me to a different path—one that aligned more with my true passions and vision for the future.
While I don't want to have children of my own, I’ve always dreamed of creating a life surrounded by animals, and my ultimate goal is to own an acreage with a big, fenced yard where I can rescue animals from shelters, mills, and other difficult situations. Helping them find love, care, and forever homes is at the heart of what drives me.
On top of that, I’ve got big plans for entrepreneurship. I envision running my own store to sell the products I’ve poured my heart into.
As if that weren’t enough, I’ve always been inspired by the warmth and charm of small-town diners. One day, I’m gonna open a Gilmore Girls–inspired bed & breakfast\air BnB - a blend of Gilmore Girls nostalgia, the comfort of Luke’s Diner, and the charm of the Dragonfly Inn. The kind of place where you can sip coffee on a wrap around porch strung with vines & fairy lights, wake up to the smell of coffee, cinnamon rolls, freshly baked bread and gather in a kitchen that feels like home. Aside from Zen by Wren, I’ve created a few other businesses within 2025, which can all only be found on Facebook. The Wren Method Cleaning Co (house cleaning). Wren‘s Crumb and Cottage (Digital bakery) as well as Through Wren’s Lens (photography).
I also started a YouTube channel/podcast where I document the real, the raw, and the unfiltered lore of my twenties. 🎙️@twentysomethinglorepodcast
So please buy my services, products and crafts, I’m not made for only fans 🙏🏼 haha.
Born with a lifelong passion for entrepreneurship and a deep desire to make a meaningful impact, I founded Zen by Wren in 2017. My journey began with creating Sage Smudge Bags, a product inspired by the herbs I carefully handpicked every summer in Drumheller with my parents. My dad also built a garden for me where I grew many of the herbs myself. My mom’s been passionate about holistic health for as long as I can remember, so I grew up around essential oils and natural healing. This connection led to the creation of Chakra Body Sprays, my second product.
I continued to build my brand through markets until 2020, when personal heartbreak and bullying led to a battle with severe depression which led me to close Zen by Wren temporarily. During the last 6 years, I confronted the realities of living with mental health struggles. From navigating the weight of depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, BPD, an ED, as well as other traumas, I realized the profound importance of vulnerability, expression, and self-compassion.
This platform has become a space of healing not only for others but for me as well. It’s a place where I can share my truth, connect with others who’ve experienced similar challenges, and create a community rooted in authenticity and acceptance. Zen by Wren is the safe, supportive space I’ve always wished for—a reminder that no one is ever truly alone in their journey.
Zen by Wren is a sanctuary for those who’ve been told they’re “too sensitive” in a world that often undervalues emotional depth. But here’s the truth: feeling deeply is not a flaw—it’s a gift. In a society that craves empathy and understanding, your sensitivity is not only valid, it is powerful.
Mental health struggles are a part of being human, and there is absolutely no shame in them. Speaking up about what you’re going through is not a weakness—it’s a profound strength. Together, let’s shift the narrative and create a culture where vulnerability is celebrated. No matter what you’re facing, you are not alone. I see you, I hear you… and we’ve got this.
In 2025, I re-launched Zen by Wren, returning to my roots with the products that began this journey. Along with my signature offerings, I’m excited to introduce new creations like Candles, Zen Gardens, Peppermint Pull, Colouring Books, Silk Scrunchies, Magic Bags, Fairy Gardens, Posters/prints, Clay Trinkets, and Oracle Cards. Every product is 100% natural, eco-friendly, and crafted with love and intention.
True wellness, I believe, starts from within. Holistic health is more than just a trend—it’s a lifestyle rooted in balance, intention, and the deep understanding that we are all interconnected. As I work toward becoming Reiki certified, my dedication to sharing the transformative power of energy healing and mental wellness only grows stronger.
My mission is to help you not just survive, but thrive. I’m here to empower you to create the life you truly desire—one that’s filled with love, healing, and unapologetic authenticity. We are all spiritual beings having a human experience, and it’s time to nourish both. Thank you for being part of this journey.
Much love,
Wren 𓅫
