What is your background and the story behind why you started Ritual Soapworks?

Ritual Soapworks was a dream waiting to manifest itself in the right timing. Since young adulthood many moons ago I felt compelled to connect with plants in a meaningful way. I started my herbal studies and never looked back. Quickly it became clear plant allies were everywhere because all people needed their healing. Throughout the years I have been honored to utilize plant medicine. The plants continuously have a way of opening new doors. After completing a scholarship to study soapmaking at Joseph C Campbell School of Folk Art in the beautiful mountains of North Carolina, I found a new way to connect and express my appreciation for plant powers. All of our batches are created with the intention of connecting people with the healing powers of plants. We have found that our physical wellness is a reflection of our spiritual wellness. Ritual Soapworks bars are intended to cleanse your body and spirit. Self Care is an essential part of wellness.
