Meet our founder.
The Lover Girls Circle was founded by Devante Jimmie, widely known as Tey.
The space was born from Tey's own transformative journey, a journey that reflects the very essence of what the brand stands for self-love, healing, self -reflection and connection.
The name itself embodies the idea of a nurturing,loving, inclusive space where women can come together to understand, heal, and regulate their nervous systems, through self-love and introspection just as the founder did.
As a self-identified "Lover Girl", the founders path was not always smooth. She faced struggles with inner peace and low self-esteem, constantly looking for love and acceptance outside of herself. This often left her feeling unfulfilled and often empty, causing a strain on her life and her capacity to work through overwhelming emotions.
Whilst going through relationship turmoil, Teys capacity got even smaller, meaning she was unable to perform well at work, in friendships and even show up for herself.
What she didn't realise, was that her nervous system was completely dysregulated and she was living in a state of fight or flight and disconnection from what her heart was truly needing from her.
There came a point where she looked for distractions, not realising that this would only mask the problem. What she later realised was that she needed a space that could help her through these challenges. A space that not only understood her needs but gave her the room to connect to herself, so that she could finally breathe, release and give herself the answers and love that she was looking for. What she needed was access to holistic healing spaces, that didn't feel catered to a specific aesthetic or type of person.
It was through her personal journey of learning to regulate her nervous system, finding supportive community and re-defining her foundation in self-love that she discovered the key to overcoming the hurdles she previously experienced.
The moment she began to connect with herself, re-build her self-love foundation and prioritise nervous system regulation was the moment she had her full circle moment, bringing clarity to her mission not only for herself but for other women.
Once grounded, confident, and thriving in self- love the rest of her world began to improve! From thriving in her career, to meeting the love love of her life and preparing for marriage.
She realised that when she was able to regulate, she was able to begin healing, and once she began healing, she began to thrive in all areas of her life.
This is when she realised that this healing was not just for her, it was her calling to help other women find empowerment, through coming back home to themselves and having access to the space her heart longed for...
and so she created it.
