A collaboration between Kyle Sullivan and Virtue Alchemy Candle Co.
A note from Anna:
It’s finally here! A collaboration that honors and celebrates the integration of darkness & light. Finding balance & prioritizing your self-care is the foundation of Virtue Alchemy Candle Co. What started as a way to cope with a dark, grief-stricken, low and distraught time of my life has evolved into an illuminating source of empowerment. Just like a candle flickering in a dark room, without the contrast of life’s most difficult truths and dark moments, how can we recognize the light and warmth that is always lingering somewhere within and around us?
It was an absolute pleasure and joy to work with Kyle Sullivan on creating his signature fragrance. This collaboration for me is an offering to support your practice in being present, embracing growth & always stoking the embers of Hope.
A note from Kyle:
…what I strive and stand for has always been first and foremost the direct acknowledgment and contemplation of death, mortality, and the search for subjective meaning in one's life.
Whether we derive meaning from divinity, nature, or ourselves isn't of great significance, just that you find one. Second would be to share my dealings with alcoholism and achieving sobriety, and the value in doing the hard work of putting down the bottle and learning to be open, honest, and vulnerable.
I have learned in life that sometimes the best thing you can do for other people is simply voice your experience, as people can relate and identify with you in the safety of privacy, and by hearing that other people have walked the paths you have, you don't feel so alone.
Lastly, I take comfort in the morbid, the gothic, the misunderstood, and seeing beauty in the broken things, and this permeates my life as well as my mission statement and overall vibe with all that I do.
…be unashamedly yourself, because life is too short to live it worrying about the judgement of others. I want people to gravitate towards self acceptance and growth. That life doesn't have to be a competition, and that to just live to enjoy life is a good enough reason as any to be alive, and to take care of yourself and others.
