About Us
Our Story
Our journey began with a deep love for ancient mythology and the mystical world of metaphysics. When I was five, I fell in love with the pyramids, hieroglyphics, and mythology of ancient Egypt. At sixteen, I walked into a metaphysical gift shop and instantly knew I wanted to own a shop of my own one day. Combining my passion for the ancient world, my Wiccan background, and over 20 years of crystal energy work, The Stone Sanctuary was born.
After writing a romance series during the pandemic, juggling three kids, and working full-time in a corporate position, I realized that I wasn't living my authentic life. I wanted to be an author, a mom, and a small business owner while sharing my love of crystals, stones, spirituality, and metaphysics with you.
Welcome to my story, my sanctuary: The Stone Sanctuary, where all are welcome, and everyone feels at home.
