About Your Guide
Candice McKinnon, Ph.D.
Healer. Educator. Researcher. Yogi.
Dr. Candice McKinnon knows what it feels like to show up every day for your students while quietly falling apart inside. As an international educator, she lived through her own season of burnout, self-doubt, and disconnection — and made the decision that changed everything. She turned inward.
That decision led her on a profound healing journey that transformed not just her teaching, but her entire way of being in the world. Today she brings that lived experience together with decades of academic expertise and training in multiple healing modalities to guide educators back to themselves.
Candice holds a Ph.D. in Curriculum and Instruction with a focus on Early Childhood Education. Her research centers on teacher well-being, contemplative practices, and social-emotional learning. She is a certified theta healer, certified yoga teacher, and certified mindfulness practitioner — trained across the United States, Abu Dhabi, and the United Kingdom.
Through Seeded Consulting, Dr. McKinnon holds sacred space for educators and parents who are ready to heal, transform, and rise into the fullness of who they are becoming.
