We were lucky to catch up with Rosalinda Edwards recently and have shared our conversation below.
Hi Rosalinda, thanks for joining us today. Day to day the world can seem like a tough place, but there’s also so much kindness in the world and we think talking about that kindness helps spread it and make the world a nicer, kinder place. Can you share a story of a time when someone did something really kind for you?
I have been blessed to be associated with some great women in my life. Women who guide, inspire, and love on me. I have been blessed to have them invest and support me. Through my journey I have worked to create safe spaces around my friends, colleagues, and associates. Every year for my solar return I facilitate some type of wellness retreat. I asked all attendees for a small donation and a friend that had attended all four weeks and was thoroughly pleased with the work I was doing acknowledged me. She ended up investing a substantial amount into my business and at the time it was such a blessing, because not only did she inspire me her gift expediated growth in my business, and for that I will forever be grateful for her.
Rosalinda, before we move on to more of these sorts of questions, can you take some time to bring our readers up to speed on you and what you do?
I am a southern born Metaphysician who realized after a visit to the Goldsmith in Little Five Points in Atlanta that I had been attracting crystals and minerals all my life. So, after some research and intentional manifesting I became a certified Crystal & Mineral Practitioner. I became a wRapper of crystals, stones, and minerals which in turn led me to becoming a Reiki II attuner and chakra balancer. My goal is to be a conduit for my clients healing, but I am in no way shape or form a medical doctor, nor can I do all of the work for my clientele. The journey of healing is a personal one, and I truly believe that what you put into the journey is what you will get out of it. I am extremely proud of the work that I do and am so grateful for the spaces, places, and doors that have opened for me. The work that I do is by design and as a small business the support means so much more than my patrons may know. My work is honest and true, as the benefit resides in your growth. It won’t always be comfortable or easy I will admit, but the journey will be worth it in enhancing your physical, spiritual, and mental well-being.
Can you talk to us about manufacturing? How’d you figure it all out? We’d love to hear the story.
All of my products are handmade customized pieces that are NOT alike in shape, color, and size. Crystals physical qualities are alluring in themselves, however I myself have experienced there healing capabilities and the power they emanate. When wRapping for clients I ask the five key questions that assist in creating the best sacred pendant, ring, bracelet, or piece of jewelry for them. I prefer certain vendors when picking out the crystal(s) because energy is extremely important to me. That doesn’t just include the mineral itself, that also includes the copper I utilize to wRap the stones. It is a very synergetic process, one that I believe hones the jewelry to the intended wearer. All skin is not the same, fingers, wrists, and neck sizes differ. People are not a monolith so neither should your product be depending on your audience. Not everyone is going to like what and how you do, and that in itself is okay.
Let’s talk about resilience next – do you have a story you can share with us?
I have a niche business that while I have a social presence, word of mouth has been my biggest resource. Not everyone is looking to start their healing, and whether or not people admit it many humans are addicted to chaos. For the services I provide you have to believe in what you are manifesting, intentionalizing, and doing. There are some months when I am booked to capacity and others when I am trying to make a way out of no way. I have been doing this work professionally since 2018 and the growth has been real along with the evolution. I have been fortunate to have my name placed in some really awesome rooms and my work shown to phenomenal people. I just know that I am passionate about what I do, and it really has been my pleasure to aid and the success and advancement of a lot of my clients. They really are why I do this work.
