We are a small, purpose-driven business founded by two women of color based in the San Francisco Bay Area. We believe that world change begins with our own inward journeys. Our mission is to bring healing and inspired connection in the world.

We combined our passions around art and community-building to create a simple experience for people to make a meaningful connection with themselves and with others—loved ones, co-workers, and even strangers on the street. 

The drawings and handwritten themes of Gratitude Blooming are born of subtle moments of connection Arlene, Gratitude Blooming artist and co-founder, had with the plants in her garden. We invite you to make meaning from your own interpretations of the artwork and enjoy the sweet imperfections and mysteries of life.

“These gratitude blooming drawings are based on 'warrior' flowers that have shown up for me over the last couple of years. They have always felt like a reminder from nature to notice both the delicate beauty and the power of life -- the same beauty and power that can be found in each of us when we make the effort to really look and to trust ourselves.”
