About Us
✨ Welcome to MushieStrong where artistry meets consciousness. ✨
Looking back, there was a time when I was seeking, searching for answers… I had questions that I felt could only be answered by a higher power, or potentially by me, by my very soul itself. I dug deep, studying anything that might lead me to internal peace. I prayed for the answers to be revealed to me.
Soon after, everything around me began to open up, particularly the wildly interesting people who entered my life, all of whom brought perspective and different experiences to my existence.
One of these unicorn people I became dear friends with was a Capricorn (I am a Capricorn), and we shared an instant and deep brotherly bond, both sharing similar life traumas, addictions, and pain. He introduced me to psychedelics and was my first shaman, even though I didn’t know it then. He was always looking out for me as I experimented with the medicine. He instilled the most important set and setting—accepting that you are good, you’re okay, and you’re going to be okay. Accepting yourself.
One day, he gave me a pendant, an intricate wire wrap holding moldavite, black tourmaline, and several other accent stones—ruby, jade, and quartz. He handed it over and said, “Happy birthday, man. This is to help you connect and protect.” I cherished the piece, not only because it represented my dear friend, but I felt deep down that this piece was hand-delivered by the universe for my purpose, to help guide me in my spiritual journey. The talisman of black tourmaline is used to ward off and protect against bad spirits in the spirit realm, a psychic shield from negativity. Moldavite carries a powerful frequency beyond earth and is able to assist in meditative connection to the stellar energies.
I kept it with me always, through many a mushroom walk in the woods, and I still wear it today when I meditate or go on a journey of the soul. I can only express love and gratitude for this person who told me to look inward and encouraged me to deal with myself, trust the process, and trust myself. That was over a decade ago!
My appreciation for therapeutic, functional mushrooms, meditation, and spiritual seeking has inspired MushieStrong, a collection of intentional jewelry that speaks to the wearer. Be called to it, let it call to you! The artists featured on MushieStrong.com are artisans of the craft and are brilliant, talented people. I am pleased to put this collection together!
With gratitude, 🙏
