Empowering Real Change Through Positive Mindfulness Solutions

Meet the Upliftly Founders

Upliftly was created by Lachelle Dillon and Andrew Dillon with one clear goal: to make it easier for anyone—anywhere—to shift to a positive mindset, and live with greater peace, joy, and purpose. Combining deep experience in mindfulness teaching with digital technology and media production, they created Upliftly as a mindfulness platform designed for individuals, students and employees to overcome everyday obstacles and achieve their highest objectives. The Upliftly team of 15 creative and technical contributors aspires to make positive mindfulness available at an affordable cost, with a flexible, scalable technical platform. Our advisory board below supports quality, validated content that is receiving excited reviews.
