Find the calm amid the chaos
Corporate & Community Wellness Workshops | International Bestselling Book | Kids Meditations & Podcast Host | Mental Health Advocate
👋🏽 Hi, I’m Nina!
I am the founder of Pure Minds, a social enterprise focused on wellness. I’ve got an international bestseller, called Let That Sh*t Go and am a kids podcast host & meditation mentor. I spent the majority of my career in sales & marketing. A decade ago I hit a peak point of stress sparked by the corporate grind, so I did something drastic - moved to Northern California for a year to unplug and live in an ashram. I wanted to see if there was a way to take ancient wisdom and apply it to modern day stressors - turns out, there is! It’s my greatest passion to help people find hope and peace through adversity.
International Bestselling Book
The book 📖
Let That Sh*t Go is filled with over 100 tips on how to find more peace and happiness in your everyday. It’s covers topics like the racing mind, self-smack talk, accepting what we can’t control, shifting our perspective, being true to you, forgiveness and finding your tech zen.

This has given us a common language to share with each other how we’re navigating the multiple priorities.”

About Me
Why I do what I do 🌿
At 16 I faced an unexpected tragedy. I struggled with PTSD & survivors guilt. I saw a number of child psychologists and psychiatrists, but what kept me grounded - and still does ‘til this day - is my study of ancient wisdom and practice of mindfulness and meditation. I don’t know who or where I would be without it. And this is why I’m so passionate about sharing it with the world. We don’t have to be defined by our adversity. There is a way to attain true mental freedom.
