Guest Bio: Lynsi Stevens is the Head Witch of Crystal Case Apothecary, a wellness company that promotes a culture of magic, acceptance, and inclusivity for medication takers. I’m dedicated to advocating for those struggling with chronic, mental, and invisible illnesses, and expanding the lens of wellness to incorporate spirituality. As a survivor of racism-based trauma, I understand the importance of creating safe spaces for marginalized individuals to explore their interests and discover spiritual wellbeing. Through my work at Crystal Case Apothecary, I’m committed to providing creatives with the tools they need to seamlessly integrate their prescription into their daily lives, and advocate for themselves in the medical system, while also infusing joy and gentle guidance into the process.
