From the Founder

---

Pocket Change was born from a dark time in my life. After the loss of my son, 

grief became something I had to survive one moment at a time.

In that season, I started putting sticky notes everywhere—on mirrors, doors, walls—simple note-to-self reminders I could reach for when my mind spiraled or my heart ached. Those words helped shift my mind, mood, and focus just enough to get through the day.

Over time, those reminders became a practice. I began turning them into something small I could carry with me.

 One of the first gems I made simply said: HIM — so I could keep him with me.

Pocket Change is the continuation of that practice—

an intentional affirmation experience where guests create glass gems designed to be carried daily.

Each day, you choose one gem, place it in your pocket, and let it gently guide you through your day. When you need a pause, you can read your reminder—or simply touch it and reconnect with the intention you chose.

Pocket Change lives in your thoughts.

Carried in your pocket.

The change is in your pocket.

Because Akeem.
