Meet Shannon
Hi, I'm Shannon, the creator behind Tea Linda. I didn’t always love tea. In fact, I used to have a serious soda habit. One that left me feeling tired, anxious, and constantly craving sugar. Determined to make a change, I began experimenting with tea and herbal infusions as a healthier alternative. What started as a small step to break my soda addiction soon grew into a deep love for tea.
As a Registered Nurse since 2005, I have always been fascinated by how simple, natural choices can improve health and longevity. I love diving into the latest research on teas and herbs and finding practical ways to bring that science into everyday life.
Outside of the kitchen, you’ll find me in the garden, "my happy place" where I grow the herbs and flowers that often find their way into my teacup. I recently earned my Master Gardener’s Certificate, and I’m always learning more about gardening, herbalism, and health.
