Spring is here, and our beloved Book Club gathered once again this April to share insights, inspirations, and intentions. Together, we continue this beautiful tradition of learning, growing, and connecting over our shared love for books, oracle decks, and the wisdom they inspire.
Steeped in spirituality, personal growth, or the mysteries of the universe, these conversations reminded us all of the power of community and shared exploration.

Exploring Spirituality, Personal Growth, and Psychedelics

Community and Connection
Beyond the books and themes, what made this gathering so special was the sense of community we have together.
Jennifer reflected on the magic of previous events, like the Cannabliss in the Catskills Retreat, where energy and connection flowed so beautifully that it practically sparked fairy dust!
These moments remind us of the power we have as a tribe to uplift, support, and inspire one another.
Full of gratitude for this group, Kirstie encouraged us all to prioritize self-care, listen to our hearts, and continue showing up for ourselves and one another.
