A vintage yellow phone booth with glass panels, some foggy or dirty, stands alone in a sandy area with tall grass, illuminated by a single light bulb inside during dusk or dawn.

“I’m here because I know what it feels like to push through when your body is waving the white flag. The Gentle Founder is the conversation I would’ve had with my brother on an ordinary day. When I lost him, I needed a space that could hold thoughtful, honest support for the real seasons of Gen-X life, not just the highlight reel.”  - Kristin

These are my thoughts, observations, lived experience, and other musings. Nothing here is polished. It’s thinking out loud, in public.

Founder’s Tip: “Not everything needs a ritual. The shop is where I keep the few wellness tools that held up under skepticism, fatigue, and lived experience. No promises. No hype. Just things that helped.”
