Why Soluna exists..

For over two decades, I worked in nonprofit community spaces, watching people’s needs get split apart—body to the doctor, mind to the therapist, spirit to the church. Too often, the answer was, “We don’t do that,” or “You don’t qualify.” Many made “too much” to receive help, yet never enough to truly afford care.

As a nonprofit executive, I was told balance didn’t exist, and that collaborative workplaces could never truly function. I also saw how therapists, healers, and caseworkers—driven by heart and passion—were continually given more work without more support. Passion alone is beautiful, but without balance, it burns us out.

Soluna was created to challenge that. To be a place where we work with each other, not for each other. Where healing takes many forms—where joy is as much medicine as rest, and community is as essential as care.

We are only just reaching our two-year mark. We are still learning. We are far from perfect. But we are doing it—in community, together.

Here, wellness is not only about repairing what is broken. It is about wholeness. It is about thriving.
