My love for pearls began while living by the ocean on Boracay Island, where I became fascinated with how these living organisms transform a tiny irritant into something luminous, imperfect, and uniquely valuable. That same philosophy guides both my life and my brand: just as a pearl forms layer by delicate layer, our challenges and experiences shape us into who we are—resilient, radiant, and truly one of a kind.Connect with Crissy : Website Instagram More from the Podcast : Sign up for JANUARY 2026 WORKSHOPS PURCHASE YOUR "Fall in love with yourself + your life : 2026 Planner!"
