Our Story
'The world is a great ocean, upon which we encounter more tempestuous storms than calms.' - Edgar Allan Poe
The story of Two Storms begins with a challenge. As a child, I vividly remember watching spring storms roll through the neighborhood, ominously approaching through the dense foliage of the Southeast-- often caught somewhere between fascination and paralyzing fear. The storms seemed to be the embodiment of the anxiety that I carried-- dark and constantly hovering.

As a child, I vividly remember watching spring storms roll through the neighborhood, ominously approaching through the dense foliage of the Southeast-- often caught somewhere between fascination and paralyzing fear. The storms seemed to be the embodiment of the anxiety that I carried-- dark and constantly hovering.
Throughout college, I made the decision to learn as much about the storms that terrified me to give me some sense of control over the lifelong fear after experiencing a tornado. As I fell more in love with meteorology, I sought to find others who shared a similar experience. Without success, I began to realize the need to bridge the gap between severe weather and mental health awareness. This realization led me to embark on a journey to create a brand that could provide some semblance of shelter from both the physical and psychological storms we battle.
Everyone has their own unique story. It's not just about storms-- the emotional toll of worrying about the unknown can be overwhelming, yet it's a sentiment often left unspoken. And so, Two Storms was born from the idea and the vision to empower individuals to face their fears head on.
OUR PROMISE:
