Congratulations ! Betsy finished the half marathon and visited us today!
Here’s where you’ll find us today! When our supplies are gone, they’re gone so hurry in for your marathon keepsakes made with rocks from the shoreline you just ran alongside! Also, there’s beer right next to us!
We got to spend a little time with Baihly and Kyle from WDIO last week! 😊 Here’s the article and clip that just aired today about our marathon collection!

How neat are these handmade keepsakes for Grandma's Marathon - Duluth, Inc.? Today on The Lift, hear what I Dream As Jeanne hopes people will feel when they wear them.
Every collection we create begins with an intention. The intention behind the marathon collection is to give runners something tangible to bring them back to the finish line. Whenever we overcome an obstacle, we have this moment; a moment where we allow ourselves to bask in the glory of our accomplishment. And then we’re on to the next thing. My hope is that the rocks on these pieces; rocks that were collected from the shoreline that they ran alongside, will hold that feeling for them. That way, when they wear it or see it, or attach their keys to it, they will allow themselves just a little more basking. They definitely earned it.
This is our new friend Autumn. She wandered into our booth in Columbia, Missouri by herself. She took her time, looking at all of the things, reaching out and touching some of them. I noticed her immediately because of the un-rushed, intentional nature of her perusing. There was one necklace; a simple cairn with some very special stones that she kept coming back to. Each time she would reach out and touch it. She left, and then came back with her Mom a little later, heading right back to that necklace. She looked up at her Mom with the “Please?” face that all parents are familiar with. There was a quiet conversation, and without a fuss, she followed her Mom out.
Sometimes, at events there are these extra special people that show up. People that are drawn to the rocks in this really profound way. Autumn was one of those people and I really wanted that necklace to go home with her. So I quickly wrapped it up and went to find her several booths away. When I gave it to her, she looked at me in disbelief and I explained to her and her Mom how impressed I was by her appreciation of the rocks. With a hug, I headed back to our booth and my day was made.
The next day she showed back up, this time with her Dad and this adorable creature and a little purse that she had crocheted herself and wanted to give me. She’s starting a business of her own called “Cloudy Day Crochet” (What a great name, right?!).
These little moments; exchanges with people that don’t feel little at all are the biggest gifts.
Here's our summer schedule!
We hope to see you at one of our events!🌞
This girl. Cali is so incredibly instrumental in everything that I Dream As Jeanne is and does. She has created all of our branding and marketing materials, she IS our online presence (except this post), and she’s alongside me creating things and working like a boss at every single show. And just when I thought I had seen all of her skills, SHE BUILT US A WEBSITE. And it’s freaking beautiful. So without further ado, I give you I Dream As Jeanne (and Cali), the website! https://www.idreamasjeanne.com/

2024 Participants --- Grandma's Marathon Weekend
Light, dark. Sun, moon. Exhale, inhale. Give, receive. Obvious, subtle. You can only have balance by giving equal attention to both. I made this today. Isn’t she beautiful? Lake Superior stones ❤️
April is a production month for us. It’s jewelry creation all day every day! Okay, maybe not ALL DAY. Besides inventory for upcoming shows we’re making some goodies like these for the runners of Grandma’s Marathon. Made with stones collected from the very shoreline that the race follows.
They’ll be available in the Etsy shop in May, and we will be set up the weekend of the race in Duluth for in-person purchases!
We are headed back to Arizona this week and are so excited to be a part of the Spring Street Fair March 22-24! 🌵☀️
A week in this glorious place with these extraordinary people. Sunsets, laughter, yoga, pelicans, food, work, adventures, stories, malas, horses, meditation, earth, fire, air, water, tears, so many perfect moments.
The intention was to find their way back to themselves and to stillness, to be there in their moments, and to learn the truth; that they have everything they need. You are all truly exceptional. Giant heaps of gratitude to Cali and Kim for helping to light the way.
The First Revival is in the books.
Tune in for more classes and offerings as we move into our year! 🌊

I can’t wait to incorporate some of the gorgeous stones from this magical place into the jewelry that you will be able to find at our shows over the summer. I just know you’ll be able to feel the sea and sunshine and beautiful breezes.

for P A R A D I S E 🌺
Which of these phrases sounds truer?
A. “Man, I really regret spending that week in Mexico basking in its glory and coming back to myself.”
B. “I’m so glad I went to Mexico to spend a week filling myself up and remembering how to just BE. Everything was amazing!”
We are here getting everything ready, so I can tell you first hand, this place is perfection.
Beautiful (private) white sand beach, sparkling turquoise waters, glorious sea breezes and sunshine.
The will be yoga, meditation, breathwork, trapeze practice with Jeanne if you choose, delicious food, relaxation, general elation, and hopefully, you!
If you’re interested in joining us, send a message 💛
Come back to yourself so you can really be there for everything else.
Surrounded by Mountain and Sea
in San Carlos, Mexico.
The Revival, March 7-14, 2024
Come and claim your new yoga mat, blocks, & moleskin journal!
You don’t need any experience in yoga or mediation.
You don’t need to worry - it’s a gated community in the beautiful city of San Carlos.
You don’t need to bring anything except yourself and some comfy clothes.
If someone you love said, “Hey, I’m thinking about going to Mexico for a week to take care of myself.” Would you tell them all the reasons they shouldn’t? Nope. You’d be like, “Do it, you deserve it!”
Treat yourself like someone you love. 💛
You could be sitting in this chair from March 7-14th. Join us in San Carlos!
We’re taking a little break from markets to spend time in Mexico and host a meditation + yoga offering next month! 🦋
The Etsy shop will be temporarily closed while we’re traveling, so if there are any gifts you need we’ll be shipping them out tomorrow through Saturday! 💫

☀️ A little bit more about our offering this March -
Why San Carlos?
We will literally be surrounded by the elements in all their astonishing glory. The town is nestled in between El Cerro Tetakawi (mountain) and the Sea of Cortez which is known for its warm, sparkling blue waters. You will have the opportunity to paddleboard, kayak, and swim in the Sea — as it’s only 100 meters from our doorstep.
Seven sunrises
Seven sunsets
Seven days to recharge your Soul and come back to yourself.
I can’t wait to watch the transformation 💛
Due to a cancellation we have two spots available!
We are making our way across the country!

It’s what we’re made of, so it only makes sense that connecting to them makes us feel stronger. It’s why you feel so good when you spend time by the water, in the forest, or when the sun shines on your face and the breeze swirls around you.
It’s the reason you have the moment where you unconsciously close your eyes and take a deep breath of gratitude and relief.
How will we connect to the elements at The Revival in Mexico this March? Well, being in a place that is so rich in natural beauty is a perfect start. We will also be practicing some meditations that help to strengthen these connections. No prior meditation experience is necessary, I promise you can’t do it wrong.

8-Day REVIVAL in San Carlos, Sonora MX
Revival: To come or bring something back to life, health or existence.
The word “retreat” has never resonated well with me. Perhaps that’s why I have avoided them, both as a facilitator and as a participant. So, when I found this miraculous place in San Carlos surrounded by Mountain and Sea, and I knew I wanted to gather people here to bring them back to themselves, I needed a different word.
What’s the opposite of retreat? Return? Arrive? That feels better…..
And there it was; revive.
That’s what I want for people; I want you to return to life, health and existence. But I don’t want you to do it for just 8 days. I want those eight days to be a beginning, not a time-out. A chance to allow your own voice to be turned up, and the chatter to be turned down, and the ability to make those volume settings permanent.

JOIN US IN PARADISE!!!!!
Take a moment to think about where most of your time, energy and attention go. That time energy and attention that you give creates a connection to its recipient. Hopefully, some of those connections fill you up and energize you. Undoubtedly, some of them do the opposite.
Reconnecting you to what fortifies and revitalizes us is the goal of our Revival in San Carlos. We will be focusing on the things that offer that on a universal level, and for the next few weeks here in social media land we will be spotlighting one each week.
This week, it’s the SENSES.
Your senses are one of the most effective ways to bring yourself into your current moment. If you focus on them, they allow you to drop all of the other stories; to let go of the past and present and focus on what’s true. Turn your sound on, and listen to the video. See how many different sounds you can hear. Maybe close your eyes. Maybe find a different sound or two with each breath you take.
We will be incorporating all of our senses into our practices. It changes everything.
We have a couple spots left for March 7-14. It’s only $820 for the week which includes all of your meals. Once you arrive, we got you. All you have to do is get yourself there. Message us for more details or to hold your spot. We can’t wait!
This weekend we’ll be at the 32nd Annual Fine Arts & Crafts Festival in Venice, Fl! 🌴
