For years, I’ve worked to build Balance Mind, Body, & Soul into more than just a store — but a safe, welcoming space for community, connection, and healing. It has always been my goal to create a place where people feel supported, understood, and not alone.
Recently, I’ve been facing several unexpected financial challenges all at once, and it has made things extremely difficult both personally and professionally. Like many small businesses, it can be hard to recover when multiple hardships happen at the same time.
I am doing everything I can to keep moving forward and keep this space available for the community, but I’ve reached a point where I could use some support.
If Balance Mind, Body, & Soul has ever meant something to you — whether through a class, conversation, product, or simply having a place to belong — any support would be deeply appreciated. Donations, sharing this fundraiser, or simply visiting the store all help more than you know.
I’m incredibly grateful for this community and for everyone who has supported this journey. Your kindness, encouragement, and support truly mean the world.
With gratitude,
