Meet Mrs. B: The Neurospicy Mystic Maven. šāØ
Hey there! Iām Jess Bicknell, also known as Mrs. B in the blogging and spiritual communities. Iām the owner and creator behind Owl Mountain Press, Wise Hazel Design & Apothecary, and LunaOwl: The Unconventional Momma ā just a few expressions of my ever-evolving, soul-fueled journey.
Herbalist of healing, priestess of purpose ā Iām a one-woman cosmic storm with ADHD-fueled brilliance, a heart as wild as the moon, and enough creative energy to run three businesses and a spiritual revolution. Youāll find me writing modern grimoires, unraveling cold cases on Tea & Mystery, crafting herbal tinctures, editing landscape photography, or wood burning under the stars. I love exploring a wide range of topicsāsometimes deep and thought-provoking, other times delightfully random.
I brew truth with a shot of sass, honor deities with crystals, bones, honey, and ancestral guidance, while building sanctuaries for the misunderstood. My mission is to blend science and spirit, shadow and sanctuaryāhelping others reconnect with their magic while staying grounded in the reality of chronic illness and neurodivergence.
On the personal side, Iām a proud mom, wife, spiritual practitioner, avid animal lover and advocate, and a neurodivergent soul navigating life with ADHD, Dyslexia, OCD, PMDD, Fibromyalgia, an undefined Autoimmune Disorder, Antiphospholipid Syndrome, and Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA). Iām also a fierce advocate for these communities and for anyone feeling ātoo muchā or ānot enoughā in a world that rarely makes space for either.
Witch? Nah. Iām a whole hippie-esque, 420, high-vibing autoimmune goddess.
āØ Our dream? To one day open a brick-and-mortar space where we can bring together our spiritual wares, books, and publishing house under one sacred roof ā a physical hub for magic, healing, and community. And at home? We're manifesting a lush, peaceful farm and animal sanctuary ā a haven for healing, connection, and love in every form.
Want to know more? Just ask ā Iām an open book. š«
Much love and many blessings,
Mrs. B
