About Us
At Ember Rise Wellness, we believe that true wellness begins from within. Whether you’re navigating the challenges of chronic illness or striving for a balanced and fulfilling life, we’re here to support you. Co-founded by Angela, with firsthand experience living with chronic illness, and Michael, our tech visionary, Ember Rise Wellness is a space designed to empower, uplift, and provide the tools you need to rise.
The name Ember Rise represents the quiet yet powerful strength within each of us—like an ember, glowing with potential, waiting to ignite into something brighter. Rising isn’t just about overcoming challenges; it’s about embracing growth, intention, and purpose.
Our offerings include the Short on Spoons App, created specifically for those living with chronic illness, and the Ember Rise App, designed to support holistic mental wellness. Through journaling, affirmations, coping skills, and mindfulness tools, we provide a space where you can find encouragement, reflection, and connection. We understand the ups and downs, the energy struggles, and the moments when patience or hope feels in short supply. That’s why our mission is simple: to help you tend to your inner ember, nurture your resilience, and rise—one step at a time, with the support you deserve.
Welcome to Ember Rise Wellness—where we honor your journey, support you through every step, and help you rise to wellness.
