A candle can be a craft or it can be a compass. We lean into the second option, inviting you into a night at Rooted in Minooka where fragrance, wax, and voice become tools for presence. What starts as a candle party unfolds into a guided ritual: choose your vessel, breathe into your intention, and pour a memory you’ll relight in two weeks. We talk about why intimate venues—libraries, churches, small restaurants—create deeper transformation, and how a single campus post sparked new partnerships that now shape our calendar.

We also get real about the inner work fueling our events. Signs, dreams, and hard goodbyes pushed us to release karmic loop relationships and choose higher timelines. There’s no blame here—only honesty, self-respect, and the courage to trust that letting go gives everyone a chance to grow. That energy shows up in class ideas like break-the-cycle candles and cord-cutting rituals that help turn emotional clarity into a sensory practice. The outcome is practical spirituality: intention you can hold, a scent that cues calm, and a ritual you can return to whenever life tilts.

LIT—Love, Inspiration, Transformation—started as a journal acronym and became a community mission. From Joliet Junior College to out-of-state pop-ups, from family support to a dream of a customized RV bringing self-care on wheels, we’re building experiences that travel well and land deep. If you’re a venue, a team, a church group, or a family looking for a meaningful gathering, we’ve got you. Book a candle party, set your intention in wax, and bring your village.
