Hey there! I'm Ana, and I've got a story that might just rock your world (pun totally intended).
So picture this: Little me, covered in dirt, holding up a piece of quartz like it's the Holy Grail. That was the moment I fell head over heels for crystals. Fast forward a couple decades, and that kiddo with muddy knees is now running MyCrystals.com. Life's funny like that, huh?
Now, I know what you might be thinking - "Great, another person selling shiny rocks online." But hang on a sec, because we're doing things a bit differently here.
See, back in 2018, my husband and I were out on one of our crystal-hunting adventures (yeah, that's our idea of a good time), and we had this lightbulb moment. We realized we could use our crystal obsession to actually make a difference. And just like that, MyCrystals.com was born.
But here's where it gets interesting. We're not just about pretty stones - we're on a mission. Our big thing is the Philanthropy Crystal Box. It's this subscription where you get some awesome crystals, and all the profits? They go straight to supporting mining communities and making sure crystals are sourced ethically. Pretty cool, right?
We're so serious about this that we've actually become a legit non-profit. It's all about using these beautiful rocks to spread some good in the world.
Now, let me geek out for a second. I've spent years studying crystals - not just the pretty stuff, but the nitty-gritty science too. I'm talking about formation, properties, the whole shebang. In fact, I'm writing a book about it right now. It's gonna bridge the gap between hard science and metaphysical beliefs. Because let's face it, crystals are fascinating from every angle.
And you know what? All this learning and exploring has taught me a ton. I've got stories for days about hunting rubies under the scorching California sun and digging for topaz in the middle of nowhere, Utah. It's been a wild ride, and it's given me a real-world understanding of the crystal trade that you just can't get from books.
But here's the thing - I'm not just blabbing about my experiences for fun. All this hands-on knowledge? It helps me make sure we're doing things right. When I talk about ethical sourcing, it's not just a buzzword. I've seen these mining communities with my own eyes. I know why it matters.
Because let me tell you, there's nothing like getting your hands dirty (literally) to really understand this stuff.
So whether you're a crystal newbie or you've got a collection that rivals mine, I'd love for you to join our little crystal family. Who knows? Maybe you'll catch the crystal bug too.
Let's see if we can sprinkle a little magic around the world, one shiny rock at a time. After all, life's too short not to have a little sparkle in it, right?
