Kaleidoscope Elements

Kaleidoscope Elements I've been on a healing journey since 2015 and have learned a lot along the way.

I’m a certified Crystal Practitioner as well as a certified Trauma Recovery Coach

We hold crystal live sales on Instagram on Monday and Tuesday each week!

This was never just about being compensated for my work.

It was about what happens when a much larger company benefits from the work of a small creator and assumes, intentionally or not, that there won’t be consequences.

I made what happened public because small businesses and customers deserve to know when this is happening in our industry.

So I’m leaving this conversation with two things I hope other small business owners and consumers remember

Being smaller does not mean you have to make yourself smaller

Being a large, polished brand does not mean they deserves less scrutiny than small businesses whose faces, values, sourcing practices, and mistakes are visible every day

Ask questions. Look behind the branding.

Know who receives your money and what you’re supporting when you spend it especially if the intentions and energy behind what you’re purchasing factor into your purchasing decisions

I said what I said 🤐

As a small business owner, every piece of content I create takes hours of research, writing, and late-night editing.

I don’t have a massive corporate marketing budget or any outsourced creators.

I just have my voice, my experience, and this community.

When a major brand with hundreds of thousands of followers, who according to my Google search made $2.7 million in revenue last year, uses their affiliate network to lift an independent creator’s high-performing work word-for-word, that’s not “inspiration.”

I’s an unauthorized corporate asset acquisition.

The irony is that they must not have even read what they stole.

Because if they had, they would have realized my rule-breaking philosophy completely contradicts the rules they speak about on their website to sell their products.

I’m speaking up because several fellow crystal shops told me they wanted to be able to protect themselves from this kind of practice and because small businesses deserve to have their intellectual property respected.

Originality matters.

Protecting our work matters.

Thank you to everyone who has supported my original series on being a crystal rebel, and thank you for helping this page grow organically.

You are the reason I keep creating 💗

Well, after hearing this, what do you think?

If you have Lemurians that you love and feel connected to, I’m not telling you you’re wrong or to stop working with them

Your intuition and your experience matter

But I also know Lemurians tend to come with higher price tags, and yet, we have no definitive way to establish whether a piece of quartz is a Lemurian or not

So take that to mean whatever it does to you

Is there a crystal you’d like me to speak on next?

Apparently, in the crystal world, names are more like suggestions 😂

And I’d like to know who gets the job of deciding these trade names because I would like a word

Jasper that isn’t jasper. Agate that isn’t agate. Onyx that’s actually calcite. Jade that’s actually serpentine.

And quartz grew some lines on its faces, so obviously it’s a Lemurian now 🙄

Trade names aren’t automatically a problem.

Some have been used for decades and some beautifully describe a material’s appearance.

The problem is when a trade name gets repeated so many times that it starts confusing people as to what crystal they actually bought.

Because if you bought Bumblebee Jasper, you probably deserve to know it isn’t actually jasper.

If you bought Blue Onyx, you might want to know you’re actually holding calcite.

And if someone is putting a big markup and labeling it “Lemurian Quartz” just because it has growth striations, that’s misleading

It’s not that we have to stop using trade names. I use them too, but I also say, “This is trade name and geologically it’s actually _____.”

Pretty rocks AND accurate information. We can actually have both 😂

Underneath the anger is a neurodivergent brain that cannot handle unfairness, and that’s what this feels like

How is it fair to the customer who doesn’t know the typical price range on items to end up in a shop charging 20-100x the wholesale price?

It’s not fair that the lapis tumble someone buys from me for $4 is going to cost someone else $20

It feels immensely wrong that a bracelet I’ve stocked and sold for $8 is being sold for $160 elsewhere, not because I’m missing out on extra profit, but it feels really dishonest to make an 80x profit

And this just doesn’t happen in brick and mortar places. I see online shops all over my feed charging $100 for satin spar bracelets, and I don’t want anyone being taken advantage of

Now, do I need a crystal for this? I don’t really think so because one of my core values is being authentic and using my voice to speak out on what feels wrong to me

But if you get dysregulated when advocating and speaking up, amethyst can help you stay calm while advocating for fairness

If you want to speak up more but struggle to voice your truth, lapis can help you articulate your values and stand firm against things like unfairness

And hematite can help keep your responses more intentional instead of reactive, so maybe I could use a little hematite 😂

What do you think? Too reactive? Or intentionally responsive 🤔
