About Us

A Note From Our Founder

I’ve spent two decades building and selling businesses, but The Intentional Maven is the work of my heart.

This brand was born from a period of deep reflection—a time when I began to think differently about legacy and what it means to live well. I realized that I didn’t want to leave a mess, practically or emotionally, for those I love. I wanted to create tools that help us move toward the future with our eyes open and our hearts at peace.

I designed these tools for anyone seeking clarity, calm, and a life lived on purpose. I am honored to walk this path with you.

A Companion for Life's Most Meaningful Seasons

The Intentional Maven creates tools for those who believe that living well and preparing well are the same thing. We meet you in the moments when life feels most significant—when reflection deepens, priorities shift, and the desire for clarity becomes a calling.

We believe that preparation is an act of love. Our mission is to provide you with beautifully designed tools that simplify the complex, honor the emotional, and elevate the everyday—helping you live fully in the present while preparing gently for the future.

Our Collection: Where Beauty Meets Function

Our tools are designed to reduce emotional overwhelm and provide a sense of grounded peace, regardless of where you are on your journey.

  • The Gracious Goodbye: A compassionate, practical framework to ensure your voice is heard and your loved ones are supported.
  • I Am Grateful: A guided gratitude journal and prompt card set created to foster presence and daily reflection.
  • Legacy & Preparation Folios: Upcoming tools designed to preserve your stories, values, and essential documents in one elegant place.

Our Philosophy

We’re not here to chase trends. We build tools that help you navigate life’s transitions—big and small—without fear or overwhelm. At The Intentional Maven, we prove that beauty and function can coexist, and that being organized is a gift—not just for yourself, but for those you love.

Live fully. Prepare gently. Leave something meaningful.
