The Connection Cove was created from a place of not quite fitting in. I wanted a space where I could show up fully as myself — without feeling like I had to follow someone else’s rules, look a certain way, or fit into a specific mold. I wanted to host events, offer intuitive readings, and connect with people in a way that felt natural, grounded, and real to me. More than anything, I wanted to create a space where other people could feel that too — where they didn’t have to have it all figured out to walk through the door.
When a nearby metaphysical shop was closing, it became really clear that there wasn’t a lot of space locally for people who are spiritually curious to gather, learn, and connect. Being located in Temperance, Michigan — right between Toledo, Ohio and Monroe — it felt like the perfect place to create something that could bring people together. But beyond location, the biggest inspiration was personal. I knew there were other people like me — people who were curious, intuitive, maybe a little unsure where they fit, but still felt called to explore something deeper. The Connection Cove was created for those people.
