Aloha,

My name is Paulina, and I am stoked to introduce myself as the visionary behind Layer by layer. With an open heart and a deep interest in holistic health, I have dedicated myself to creating a space that serves as a catalyst for transformative journeys of self-nourishment and healing.

I was born and raised in Sweden with roots tracing back to Poland. From a young age, I felt drawn to explore the world beyond my Nordic-Baltic upbringing. I traversed the globe, backpacking through jungles, getting lost in ancient medinas, and sailing turquoise waters. With each new adventure, I gained a deeper appreciation for the richness and diversity of our world. Yet, despite all the wonders I encountered, I never quite felt a profound sense of belonging until I set foot on the breathtaking island of O'ahu.

For over a decade, I have been deeply rooted in the lands of Hawai'i, immersed in the breathtaking natural beauty, vibrant community, and the profound spiritual connection I feel to the 'āina and its people. Here, I have found a true sense of belonging - a place where my diverse cultural heritage has blended seamlessly with the unique and captivating aloha spirit. As an expression of this connection, I weave my healing practices and products into the fabric of the land and community, offering my whole self in service to the restoration and well-being of this beautiful island home.

Creativity is my approach to life and ignites a fire within me. The process of transforming my innermost thoughts and emotions into tangible creations is nothing short of magical. Whether I'm crafting jewelry, exploring the realms of herbalism and kitchen witchery, or creating a sequence for a yoga class, each creation is an expression of my authentic self. It is in these moments of creative flow that I feel the most connected and aligned with the limitless potential of abundance.

Layer by layer is not just a concept; it is a reflection of my personal beliefs and experiences. Throughout my own journey, I have witnessed the incredible healing and transformative power in nurturing the interconnected layers of my physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual wellbeing, working in union to create a sense of wholeness and balance.

Through Layer by layer, I aim to extend the tools and practices that have supported and guided me on my path and continue to shape and enrich my life. My intention is to create a space where you can nourish your innermost being, embracing every layer of who you are, and who you are unfolding to yet become.
