​Ottavia “Tay” Lang is a Certified Sound Therapist, Public Speaker, Reiki Master, Mindfulness Coach, Recording Artist, and the founder of Dear Life Chat LLC, a holistic wellness company specializing in sound therapy, mindfulness, and self-care. ​

My journey into wellness began during a challenging period when I spent six months homeless with my two children, living in our car and various shelters across Atlanta. This experience led to severe health issues, including heart palpitations and anxiety, prompting a transformative shift towards spiritual and physical well-being. What started as personal reflections evolved into Dear Life Chat, initially a blog and now a platform dedicated to guiding others on their healing journeys. ​

Academically I hold degrees in Medical Technology, Organizational Leadership, and Public Service Administration. My certifications include Sound Therapy Practitioner, Energy Medicine, Reiki Master, Mental Health First Aid Responder, along with training in mindfulness practices and cognitive behavioral therapy.
