Our Story

Faith. Self-love. Growth. These three things are at the heart of why I started Purple Orchids & Co.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve been an overthinker—constantly analyzing, questioning, and sometimes struggling with the weight of my own thoughts. But through my journey, I’ve learned that faith and self-love are powerful tools for healing. They are not just words but a way of life, and I wanted to create something that embodied that truth.

A Ministry Through Essentials

This business started as more than just a store—it’s a ministry, a way to reach people who need mental health support, encouragement, and reminders that they are deeply loved. Through every product, I love to preach Jesus and share the unconditional love of Christ. I believe that the things around us—what we wear, what we see, what we touch—can be daily affirmations of His love, faithfulness, and grace. Every item I offer is chosen with the intention of uplifting, comforting, and pointing others back to Him, especially those who may be struggling.

Growing Through Challenges

Starting this business hasn’t been easy. Every day brings new challenges, but with each obstacle, I grow. I’ve learned to embrace the journey, to trust the process, and to lean into my faith. This is what I want to share with my community—that even in the hardest moments, we can find strength, beauty, and purpose.

The Name & The Meaning

Purple has always been my favorite color—royal, calming, and deeply symbolic of transformation. And orchids? They are resilient, graceful, and bloom in their own time, just like each of us on our journey of healing and self-love. That’s how Purple Orchids was born—a reflection of beauty, faith, and the courage to keep growing.

Whether you’re here to find something that speaks to you or to support someone on their journey, I hope you feel the love and intention behind every piece. You are seen. You are valued. You are enough.

With love,
Acksha
