Taking care of women
I started The Crystalline Collective because I know what happens when women are supported, nurtured and deeply cared for. I know what happens when the experience of a woman is prioritized in a household, a community, a culture, a country and beyond. I strongly believe that women can do almost anything AND I strongly believe that also, we shouldn’t have to. Women are incredibly giving, compassionate, intuitive…and women are tired. We are managing entire families, businesses, and organizations. We are building and supporting communities. We are nurturing children, loved ones and the elderly. We sometimes give everything in relationships that reciprocate very little. We are working to heal ourselves while simultaneously attempting to heal others. We do all of this and do so imperfectly. And yet, somehow, continue on with a surprising and wildly inspiring amount of grace, perseverance and inherent beauty. I love being a woman to my very core. I love my creativity, my children, my femininity, my wilderness, the miracle of my body and the gift of my intuition. Most of all, I love who I am when I am rested, nourished, supported, and deeply considered by my community. I wish for all women in the world to know who they are when they are taken care of and experience that part of themselves as often as possible.
As The Crystalline Collective founder and head hostess, I very simply, and genuinely, want to take care of women. I want to create a space for them to rest. I want to surprise them with enchanting gifts that make life feel sweeter and lighter. I want to make their surroundings breathtaking and other worldly. I want to feed them nourishing food that helps them feel full and regulated. I want to take care of every little detail to make healing more accessible, growing more enjoyable, and the inevitable discomfort of life, more tolerable. I want every moment to feel intentional and special when I serve them. I want to make them feel safe enough to feel vulnerable together and brave enough to hold space for one another. I want to gather them in a way that creates a sense of belonging they have never experienced before- the kind of belonging that changes lives.
And I don’t want to hold back.
The Crystalline Collective was made to inspire the world to take care of women. To gather them, and to gather them well. And when that happens- when women are given space to heal, the world inevitably follows.
