Unlocking the Soul

I recently started working at a crystal store, and while I absolutely love everything in the shop, it also got me thinking. Every item in that store is a physical tool, a bridge that helps us see what already exists within us. As humans, we often need something tangible to grasp the messages our intuition is constantly whispering.

But here’s the thing—we fill ourselves with so much self doubt and fear (myself included) that we fail to see the incredible light we bring into the world. What if we flipped the script? Let’s get a little wild and imagine a life where we embodied self love all the time. Where we knew no different. Where negative self talk didn’t exist, and fear only showed up when we faced real danger. Imagine intuition running through us as naturally as the blood of our ancestors.

The cliché response we often hear is that we already hold all the answers within us. And while that’s true, for some reason, we’ve locked those answers away. The tools in the crystal store help us unlock them, just as healers—whether energy workers, mentors, or even friends—help us do the same. But here’s the truth: we are all healers. Every single one of us has the ability to guide ourselves and others toward clarity and wisdom.

This process unfolds differently for everyone. Some souls come into this life with an express path, accessing deep wisdom by the time they’re 20. Others spend 90+ years slowly unravelling their truth. Life experience is often seen as the key to wisdom, but soul experience. That’s priceless. If I meet a 20 year old who speaks profound truths beyond their years, I won’t dismiss them simply because they haven’t physically walked this Earth long enough. Human age creates worldly wisdom, but the soul carries something ancient—something timeless.

So, whether it’s a crystal, a tarot card, a conversation, or a moment of stillness, remember: the answers have always been inside you. You are your own key.
