At Nuearth Co., we believe wellness is more than the products we create—it’s about the stories, people, and passions behind them. Our Rooted in Community series is dedicated to highlighting intentional small brands pouring love, creativity, and purpose into their craft.
This month, we’re honored to introduce Vibe & Glo, a brand born from one woman’s journey to transform burnout into beauty.
The Story Behind Vibe & Glo
Founder Mikayla Tani shared that Vibe & Glo began during a difficult season of anxiety and burnout while working as a labor and delivery nurse on night shifts. What started as a creative outlet soon became a deeper passion for wellness, grounding, and joy. Through hand-poured, non-toxic home fragrances, she found a way to extend her personal healing journey into something others could also experience.
“Vibe & Glo became my way of turning that personal healing journey into something others could experience too.”
Crafting With Intention
For Vibe & Glo, every product is more than wax and fragrance—it’s a story told through scent and an invitation to reset. Each candle is blended with care, poured with intention, and made to spark comfort or calm in everyday life. What brings the founder the most joy is hearing how her creations become part of customers’ daily rituals and moments of peace.
A Perfect First Pick
If you’re new to Vibe & Glo, she recommends starting with a candle from the Signature Collection. From the cozy warmth of Morning Roast + Toast to the airy freshness of Moonlit Tide, these hand-poured coconut soy candles with wood wicks are the heart of her shop—and the perfect way to experience her craftsmanship and mission for intentional self-care.
Rooted in Community
When asked what it means to be part of a collective of wellness-focused small businesses, her response resonated deeply with us:
“There’s so much power in community, especially when we’re all focused on helping people feel better, live well, and find balance in a chaotic world… I’m honored to be surrounded by other small business owners who are doing meaningful work and prioritizing purpose over profit.”
This spirit of uplifting others is exactly why we chose to spotlight Vibe & Glo. Their dedication to intentional self-care, their contributions to Anxiety & Depression Awareness, and their passion for creating products that nurture wellness embody everything Rooted in Community stands for.

What’s New with Nuearth Co.
Since our last Rooted in Community feature, so much has been happening behind the scenes at Nuearth Co. We’ve been hard at work refining our packaging with a brand-new symbol chart, created to clearly label each product by mood — whether you’re reaching for something grounding, calming, fresh, indulgent, or minimalist, you’ll now have a simple guide to help you find your perfect match.
We’ve also officially opened up wholesale orders, a huge milestone for us as we begin expanding into boutiques and shops that share our values of intentional, earth-grown beauty.
And perhaps the most exciting (and nerve-wracking!) update: we’re preparing for our very first in-person vendor event this September at MMATL. It’s equal parts thrilling and surreal to think about meeting so many of you face to face for the first time, sharing our products in person, and watching people experience them beyond a screen. We’re excited, nervous, and absolutely grateful for the journey that’s brought us here.
Closing Thoughts
Spotlighting brands like Vibe & Glo reminds us why we started Rooted in Community in the first place — to celebrate small businesses that lead with heart, healing, and intention. Each story shared is a reminder that wellness is not just about products, but about people choosing to create something meaningful out of their own journeys.
As we continue building Nuearth Co., we’re grateful to grow alongside brands like Vibe & Glo, and to share this space with all of you. Thank you for following along, supporting small businesses, and helping us nurture a community rooted in care, creativity, and connection.
Stay tuned for next month’s feature, more updates on our fall collection, and of course, our first-ever vendor event debut — we can’t wait to bring you along with us.
With love,
Shaena & the Nuearth Co. Team
