The Way
The Name
The conceptualization of Theara was a very enlightening and deeply personal process for me. I chose to leave the comfort and security of a 23-year career in public education with the aim to equip all possible with an empowered way through the challenges of neurodiversity. As the mother of four, member of the neurodiverse collective, and long-time school administrator I have experienced those challenges first hand. Theara is the culmination of all I have learned along the way. Many have likened the experience of launching a business to that of having a child. The name Ara kept coming to mind when contemplating the company name. It turns out the name means: a table of offerings. To me, the name Theara (the Ara) means; the table of offerings. I left a well-established career to bring all my best to the table for you, equipping you every day in every way.
