About Crystalline Light
Hi!
I'm Jennifer
Welcome to Crystalline Light - Your Crystal Community
Crystalline Light is more than an online crystal shop – it’s a warm, welcoming community for everyone who is curious about the transformative power of crystal healing.
Here, you’re not just a visitor, you’re part of our crystal family. We strive to make spiritual growth accessible (and even a little fun) for beginners and seasoned crystal lovers alike.
My Story – From Grief to Crystal Healing
My name is Jennifer, and I’m the founder of Crystalline Light. My journey with crystals began almost 30 years ago, when I struggled with depression and figuring out my life, but they became even more life-changing when I faced years of grief, loss, and major life changes.
During that dark time, I found comfort and hope through the gentle energy of crystal healing stones. I discovered firsthand how powerful it is to use crystals for grief support – stones like amethyst and rose quartz became my lifeline, helping me gradually heal and transform my pain into purpose.
Through this personal transformation, I was reminded of my calling: to share these healing tools with others who need a bit of light. Crystalline Light was born from that mission, out of a desire to help others feel seen, supported, and empowered on their own journeys
My Mission - Healing, Growth & Community
At Crystalline Light, my mission is to empower your healing and personal growth through the magic of crystals, AND do it in a way that is accessible for your every day life. I believe that everyone deserves support and inspiration, especially during life’s challenges. My core values center on authenticity, compassion, and community:
Authenticity
I share my truth and real experiences (the good and the bad) to remind you that you’re not alone in your journey. You're also assured the crystals from my business are authentic and as 'clear' as possible.
Compassion
From offering advice on crystals for beginners to offering support during tough times, I approach everything with kindness and understanding.
Community
Crystalline Light isn’t just “my” business - it’s our crystal community. We welcome crystal enthusiasts of all levels. Whether you’re just learning about crystal healing or you’ve been working with stones for years, you have a home here.

and reminding you that you are never alone on this path.”
