💎 Inside The Crystal Passage: My Journey from Restaurant to Reiki

💎 Inside The Crystal Passage: My Journey from Restaurant to Reiki

A story of transformation, healing, and finding my true path

For 30 years, I helped run my family’s Italian restaurant—a beloved place in our community, full of laughter, stories, and pasta. It was a beautiful chapter of my life, but also one that asked a lot of me. Long hours, high stress, and the constant buzz of running a business left little time to tend to my own spirit.

What many people don’t know is that even in the midst of that busy life, I always felt drawn to something deeper—something quieter, more soulful. I’ve always believed in energy, in unseen connections, in the healing power of presence. And over time, that calling became impossible to ignore.

🌿 The Awakening

My journey into energy work didn’t happen overnight. It started with moments—quiet nudges, inner whispers, and unexpected encounters that stirred something inside me. The more I listened, the more I remembered who I really was.

I began studying Reiki, sound healing, and shamanic practices. I explored the healing properties of crystals, sacred rituals, and the rhythms of nature. Each step felt like coming home to myself.

Eventually, I knew it was time for a bigger shift. I stepped away from the restaurant world and opened The Crystal Passage—a space for healing, connection, and magic.

🔮 Why I Created The Crystal Passage

I didn’t just want a shop—I wanted to create a sanctuary. A place where people could come as they are, breathe a little deeper, and remember their own light.

The Crystal Passage is a reflection of my journey. It’s where I offer Reiki, sound baths, energy clearing, and spiritual coaching. It’s also a shop filled with hand-selected crystals, intentional gifts, and tools to support your spiritual path.

But more than anything, it’s a place where people feel seen, safe, and supported.

✨ The Work That Lights Me Up

Every client session, every full moon circle, every market, every heart-to-heart in the shop—it all reminds me why I’m here. Helping others reconnect to their energy, their intuition, and their peace is an honor I don’t take lightly.

My work is rooted in intention, integrity, and a whole lot of love. Whether we’re working together one-on-one or you’re just browsing crystals for the first time, you’re part of the story now, too.

🌙 From Then to Now

Looking back, I’m so grateful for every step—the late nights at the restaurant, the leap into something new, the trust it took to follow my heart. All of it led here. All of it made me who I am.

And now? I’m exactly where I’m meant to be.

Welcome to The Crystal Passage

Whether you’re here to book a session, explore spiritual tools, or just feel a little more grounded in this wild world—I’m so glad you found your way here.

You are welcome, always.

💎 With love and light,
Julie
