Making Magic and Meaning in a Queer-Centered Space
"Megan reached out after following MoonStone on Instagram, and this conversation surprised me with how deep it went. We talked about burnout and rest and self-advocacy in ways I hadn't really put into words before. It's 30 minutes, but it felt like an afternoon."
About This Episode
Host Megan Hadley sits down with Brenna to talk about the path from a career in psychology to founding a queer-centered metaphysical shop in South Minneapolis — and what it means to build a business around wellness, community care, and authentic living.
The conversation weaves between the practical and the philosophical: what burnout actually looks like for a small business owner, why MoonStone closes one day a week, and how community collaboration became central to the shop's growth in Longfellow.
