The "Stop Playing Small" Candle Collection Collaboration w/ Lanasia Angelina

We have partnered with Lanasia Angelina to bring you a candle collection that pairs with each chapter of her new book, "Stop Playing Small."

"What would your life look like if you finally STOPPED playing small? Too often, we shrink back—out of fear, self-doubt, or the lie that we’re not ready. But deep down, you know you were created for MORE.

That’s why I wrote Stop Playing Small. In it, I open up about my own journey—setbacks, resilience, faith, and the bold leaps I had to take to stand fully in my calling. I share the raw moments of rejection, the missteps, and the radical decisions that led me here—because I know you’ve felt them too.

This isn’t just another “motivational” book. It’s a transformational guide. Inside, I walk with you step by step through coaching prompts designed to help you:

• • Break free from the limiting beliefs keeping you stuck
  • Heal from your past so you can move forward in clarity
  • Build unshakable confidence in who you are and what God created you to do
  • Give yourself FULL permission to take up space and play BIG

Stop Playing Small is both a mirror and a roadmap—it shows you where you’ve been holding back and gives you the tools to finally step boldly into your next chapter. Your transformation is waiting. The only question is—are you ready to stop playing small and live the BIG life you were made for?"
