I have it figured out.
šŸ’«Mexico was amazing. I had some pretty huge epiphanies there.
šŸ’«Healing Hollow started at my kitchen table 16 years ago (wild to think about), and it has been one heck of a journey. I have made the peaceful but difficult decision to close the storefronts and return to online only.
šŸ’«When I started, it was to do my healing work through oils. I knew healing had to be tangible as well as energetic, and plants were the perfect way. It really is such an amazing story, I see that now, but it took a lot of energy, a few traumatic experiences and a sprinkle of chronic adrenal burn out to truly understand that.
šŸ’«I’ve spent my life trying to prove myself, and that meant another blend, another store, another idea… each milestone somehow never enough. Now I see that life can actually be calm, peaceful, and easy… if you let it.
šŸ’«I will close the doors for the last time in Cranbrook on February 28th. I will close the doors in Kimberley once I know more about dates for selling the Kimberley building. I will be selling off many furnishings and excess product as I downsize to be online only.
šŸ’«We will continue to carry all of our top-selling blends and products without interruption.
šŸ’«Healing Hollow will move to online sales only, with local pickup and delivery options. I will now be able to re-embark on teaching about oils, spirituality and take healing clients.
I will cook more dinners, keep groceries in the cupboard, run my dogs daily without my phone, and live more simply. Breathe more.
šŸ’«I don’t feel like I’m going backwards at all. This was all part of the journey.
šŸ’«Kind of like moving back to your hometown after trying the city for a while. I’m just not cut out for the city.
šŸ’«Please check back daily for updates on sales, timelines, and transitions.
Sincer-Oily,
Michelle

Firstly, thank you so much for the response to Monday nights post. The comments, the private messages and emails to purchase Healing Hollow were so amazing and confirmed for me that telling my story could be valuable or writing a book could help others as well as being therapeutic for me.

I did something Monday night … I booked a retreat trip to Mexico by myself and I leave in my birthday, Monday—serendipitous—as the perfect place showed itself and my visa points matched. (And im going to blog the whole time).

I have a bigger update tonight but wanted to say thank you šŸ™

Pictured is my kindergarten to grade 12 memory book where it says many times that I want to be a writer or own a bookstore. Who knew that my blends would tell a story and who knew that my story would be what it is. And who knew that I’d be horrible at math my entire life.

Thank you again,
M
Ps check out signs of nervous system burn out. Both male and female ā™„ļø

I’m not okay. And I’m done pretending that I am. (insert Jelly Roll song or a drum roll)

I’ve been running on empty for many years. Looking back, it likely started in my 20s, when I believed I had to work three jobs to be valued: to help people, to feel good, to be worthy. Nursing. Caretaking. Showing up. All while quietly abandoning my own needs; unsupported or not seeing it.

Right now, I don’t know where Healing Hollow is going. And I am finally at peace admitting that; all the products created from experience, maybe my last creation is something other than oils.

For as long as I can remember, my life has felt like a steady stream of conflict and trauma, some shaped by my own choices, some that may be generational. My childhood was surrounded by conflict where the adults didn’t take accountability. For a long time, that made me angry. Now, as a single mother and business owner living with exhaustion and confusion, I can see it differently. My parents were doing the same thing I was- surviving with only the tools they had.

I’m still learning what generational trauma really means, but I see the patterns clearly. I see the choices my sister and I made. And I see how much of my life has been about endurance.

Here’s the condensed timeline of my adult life:

1998-One of several car accidents resulted in a head injury. I didn’t receive the support or understanding I needed. I didn’t yet know I was a sensitive empath. I pushed through, believing strength meant ignoring myself.

2002-My dad died. I kept working. I kept showing up.

2005-I had a child and opened a rehab-Pilates business. I kept showing up.

2006-My sister was murdered. Life was never the same. I kept showing up.

2006-2009-I raised my son, ran a business, and lived through grief, guilt, and a four-year murder investigation and trial that ended in January 2009. There was no time off. No support. I kept showing up.

2011-I had another baby while growing my essential oil business, blending by my story thus far.

2012–2019-I opened the first Healing Hollow, which eventually grew into five locations. I showed up.

2020–2023-I left my relationship unexpectedly and endured a prolonged divorce with significant financial and operational strain, alongside COVID closures, decision fatigue, and deep mental and physical exhaustion, surgery for melanoma. I kept showing up.

2023–2024-I began to regain clarity. I started seeing my lifelong pattern of putting others first and never setting boundaries. I removed toxic people from my life, made difficult decisions to protect myself and my children, and began showing up differently.

September 2024 — After setting firm boundaries and letting go of an employee, I was assaulted by her husband and suffered repeated head trauma. Two days later, I relocated my store. I showed up.

2025-The aftermath: counselling, court dates, moving homes, and working more as sales declined with the economy. I showed up. I think. It's all a blur.

If you’ve made it this far, thank you.

It’s now January 2026, and I’ve avoided my shops since December 24th. I can’t fake it anymore. I’m not angry. I don’t feel like a victim. I understand so much more than I ever have before; I’m just deeply tired. Not showing up. šŸ˜‚

What I’ve learned along the way is incredible. And I know this pause, this uncertainty, is leading somewhere better-even if I don’t know where yet.

So, I’m choosing honesty. I’m choosing rest. And I’m choosing to listen.

I’ll be sharing more daily as I navigate what’s next; for me, and for Healing Hollow. Not because I’m broken, but because healing has always been at the heart of what I create.

If this resonates, you’re not alone.
More tomorrow xo
