Waking Dragons

Wearable Wisdom to help Wake us up.

About

We didn’t start a t-shirt company because we wanted a brand.We started it because we wanted reminders.Reminders to breathe.
Reminders to laugh.
Reminders to wake up to the life we’re already living.We’re Connie and Andrew — two longtime artists who somehow found each other later in life on a dating site (life has a sense of humor). We both studied design in the 90s, wandered different roads for decades, and eventually found ourselves working in healthcare — helping people heal while still chasing our own awakening.Our house is loud. Full of kids, conversations, dishes, ideas, and the occasional existential question at the breakfast table.Waking Dragons grew out of that life.It’s not just a shirt company.
It’s wearable encouragement.
Little nudges from your highest self.
Comfortable truth you can put on in the morning.And sometimes, waking up isn’t just personal — it’s collective.We’re honored to host a special line of merch in collaboration with two fierce, loving women, TeriLeigh and Megan Lee, in support of the MN Fierce Love movement. Because awakening isn’t passive. It shows up. It stands together. It chooses courage wrapped in compassion.This is what we believe:Be bold enough to look within.
Love hard enough to show up.
Laugh enough to stay human.Because sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do…is wake up and get dressed.— Connie & Andrew
