Gaia Goddessa
two beings, one spirit Most businesses can not claim that they were born when ‘an elf met a mermaid.’ Then again, most businesses are not Goddessa Gaia. Owners Brittney Asteya and Tarin Still came together to create unique body adornments made from ‘harm-free feathers, upcycled leather, fur, and gem grade healing crystals.’ Their designs are meant to do more than just embellish, they are crafted to be a reflection of the wearer’s spirit and the ‘interconnectedness of all things.’ I have to go for the obvious right off the bat... the name... how did you come up with it? We actually started off just calling our line Gaia when we began business together a little over a year ago. We wanted to represent the evolution of the Goddess consciousness in today's world and Gaia is an easy Goddess to connect with as she is all things around us. It naturally transformed into Gaia Goddessa in the first few months of our business exploration together and we haven't looked back since!
How did your elf/mermaid partner team meet? And how did you decide to go into business together? We met through mutual friends a couple years back but we really fell into our sisterhood two years ago at a daytime pool party. We both had been creating for some time before then and used to get together for girls wine and craft nights, the energy was great between us and we decided to take the leap to start a business together.
