Amazonite Goddess Necklace for You Are Brave
Our Amazonite is a staple for me. It was one of the first gemstones we carried as a small company back in 2014, and I have loved it ever since. The beautiful blue/green colors resonate and inspire my soul. There are so many times in my life I've needed the support of this gemstone. As I navigated my way to build a beautiful, sustainable business with two children and a husband that traveled every week for work, I had to call on a strong and empowering courage quite often.

Ethiopian Opal Luxe Cocktail necklace for Amazing Mom
If there is anything I can say I've learned from being a mama to both kids and a business, it would be to remain flexible in every way possible. And to allow room for the divine to intercede. Things are never going to turn out exactly how you planned, and it's how you deal with that that will make or break you. And while things are not turning out the way you want, if you can open yourself up to the bigger plan the Universe has in store for you, you will be golden.

MOONSTONE EMPOWERING NECKLACE FOR STRONG WOMEN
As a mother of a little boy I usually don’t have the time, or energy, to swap out my jewelry each day. So many days you’ll find me wearing our Moonstone Empowering necklace. It’s just the right touch of sparkle and goes with everything. And of course I love that it's the stone for sisterhood (and strong women) because it reminds me we are all connected and here for each other—something I’ve learned to lean into the older I get. And as an added bonus, Moonstone is a great hormone balancer, perfect as I continue to navigate the many phases of womanhood.

LAPIS LAZULI LUXE NECKLACE FOR QUEEN
Several years ago my uncle was living and working in Santiago, Chile, and I had the opportunity to visit him. Everywhere I looked there was beautiful Lapis Lazuli jewelry, and I learned that the The Coquimbo Region of Chile is the only place in South America where Lapis Lazuli can be found. I instantly fell in love with the vibrant color of the stone and bought a pair of earrings that unfortunately did not survive the trip. When I came to work at SoulKu, the Lapis Lazuli Luxe necklace was the first one I brought home because of the sentiment the stone carries for me.

LABRADORITE SACRED NECKLACE FOR TRANSFORM
I always have my eye on our Labradorite Sacred necklace because it's one of my favorites to photograph! I love how the hand-cut facets really showcase the beautiful warm and cool flashes and colors. And it's the perfect necklace for support during times of change. As we know, the only constant in life is change! I recently became a mother, and there is so much learning every day.

LABRADORITE EMPOWERING NECKLACE FOR I AM THE STORM
I love that the iridescence of Labradorite comes from fractures within the stone. Wearing it in our Empowering style reminds me that some things need to be seen in the right light to find their magic.

GREEN ONYX LUXE NECKLACE FOR BEREAVEMENT
Green Onyx is one of my absolute favorite gemstones to wear. I love the rich color the stone exhibits. Beyond its comforting and soothing nature, I appreciate its energetics and symbolism of self-control. Also, I'm Brazilian, and Brazil is the primary country where Green Onyx is found—a must-have piece in my collection. 🙂 ❤️

LITTLE WISHES KIDS NECKLACE COLLECTION
Since we launched our Little Wishes Kids Collection, I've loved making them. And my daughter loves to wear them. It's so special to share the magic of SoulKu jewelry with her, and so making and gifting this collection has become a go-to favorite of mine.

BLACK ONYX ALCHEMY NECKLACE FOR STRESS RELIEF
I love this necklace because as someone who struggles with anxiety, it helps me stay grounded, present, and grateful. I felt a sense of relief the first moment I put it on! It is also so beautiful, pairs well with almost all of my outfits, and I can wear it while I workout!

Mercury Retrograde Necklace
I've always loved wearing gemstones that truly assist me in my life because I believe in their magic. And Black Tourmaline has always been one that speaks to me for its cleansing and protective energy. Also, I'm always impacted by Mercury in Retrograde, so this necklace is a go-to for me during this time throughout the year. And, I love how the necklace has a black cord instead of tan, which sets off the design well. I use a Selenite cleansing plate to help clear my stones during this time too.

BLACK ONYX MOON & BACK NECKLACE
I’ve always felt very connected to the moon in many ways, and seen her as Mom—always present, watchful, comforting, and changing but staying the same. I love how Black Onyx channels and supports protection and stability, because that is something that we all seek and search for throughout our lives. An unchanging, calming, and ever-present force is what every child (and grown adult) seeks in this world and a reminder of that is like a constant hug from your Mom. Also, when things got too much to deal with, and I couldn’t afford therapy, I would go to the beach at night in Charleston with a bottle of wine and yell at the moon. That I was doing my best, that things weren’t fair, that everything was going wrong, and I needed someone to take all of that anger and sadness from me because I couldn’t hold it anymore. And she took it, and she always came back the next night, and she was always there when no one else was.

BLUE LACE AGATE LUXE NECKLACE FOR CONFIDENCE
The beautiful lacy bands of white and blue of Blue Lace Agate have such a calming effect on me. I used to be a maker, and this was my favorite. Now I do fulfillment and smile every time I see one on an order.
