About Kathleen O’Brien & Heather Beach

Heather Beach is an esteemed product development chemist, herbalist and shamanic healer.  She has formulated some of the highest grossing, authentically natural consumer products on the market from many natural brands including Seventh Generation, Sunsoil CBD, and Grove Collaborative. Her fascinating career began in science as she holds biochemistry and biophysics degrees from William Smith College and Yale University. Most recently, Heather co-founded Kafina Energy, a revolutionary organic energy elixir that powers the body, mind and soul.

In parallel to Heather’s career as a chemist (and much to her surprise), Heather had a spiritual awakening where she learned she had the ability to communicate directly with plants.  This led to Heather studying herbalism and other natural healing modalities as well as apprenticing as a shaman. During a fateful shamanic journey in 2012, the Goddess of Coffee revealed a formula with five organic ingredients for awakening the spirit and fueling the soul. At that time she had built a lively practice as an herbalist and shamanic healer in the Burlington, VT area, so she began testing what is now the Kafina Organic Energy Elixir formula with her clients.  Heather’s clients, family and friends were in awe of the energy and sustained focus it provided as well as its mood boosting effects. This first iteration of Kafina gained a cult-like following in the Burlington area via word of mouth.

Kafina co-founder Kathleen O’Brien, was Heather’s friend and colleague at Seventh Generation at the time. When she tried Kafina for the first time in 2012, it was the cure she desperately needed for severe burnout after having three children in 3.5 years while managing a demanding career.  When Kathleen and Heather reunited in 2018, they decided to make Kafina available to people everywhere as an extraordinary organic energy elixir for increased energy, mental focus and uplifted mood.

Kafina has zero chemicals, no crash and was founded with a sincere mission to fuel, restore and awaken people through the healing power of plants. Kafina can be used as a single shot, an addition to coffee/tea, and is beloved as a pre and/or post-workout drink. Kafina is sold on www.KafinaEnergy.com in packs of 8 or 32.
