Oath of a Pearl: About

The Tale of the Pearl

"I want to share all of my findings and realizations and lessons and growth and pain because I believe everyone can benefit from it, because what I have experienced at its core are the same things that we all experience. I want others to read them and feel them from a different perspective. We are all one and the same and living the same things. We seek the same feelings and comforts at the end of everyday and I want to revel my experiences in hopes that someone can not feel alone, despair, or loss. Because I have felt those things and I understand their waves. I want my experience to hopefully shed some light and make other's experiences seem more meaningful. Because life does not always seem meaningful."
And from this quote, this blog was born. Oath of a Pearl is website where articles and creative pieces on different topics within the theme of healing, health, and wellness are written with the intention to highlight life lessons learned, share ideas, and explore the world we all interact with. 
Creative work by the author is also available to purchase under the Shop page.

About the Author

'Oath of a Pearl,' along with all of the creative expressions, is ran and made by Maren Hoflund, a Southern California native with a creative mind and loving heart. She is a certified massage therapist and holistic health practitioner (CMT HHP). She has an associates degree in Child Development and previously worked as a Montessori preschool teacher. She has recently earned her Master Reiki certification and is an NAMC certified Montessori teacher. 

Her history in writing begins in childhood, where she began journaling and was an avid reader. As she grew older, she wrote for the school yearbook and won first place at the Del Mar Fair in 2014, and wrote for an online women's magazine in high school. In 2020, she self published her first book, a collection of poetry titled "Shallows of My Trenches." Today, she dreams to write a book in a genre other than poetry.

Maren's photography and film experience began in childhood as well, watching her grandmother take photos and document her and her family's lives up until her passing. Her Nana won local photography awards and inspired Maren to always chase her dreams, because they are able to be accomplished. As a teenager, she received her Canon AE-1 as a birthday gift, and has been dabbling in film and modeling as a form of expression since. 

In the future she plans to express herself and her creativity in many ways, from music and style to ceramics and cooking. Oath of a Pearl is a place for these expressions that become public to live. 

During the time that she is not working, studying, or creating, she is traveling, reading, modeling, enhancing her film photography skills, spending time with her friends and family, and taking care of her and her partner's snake Isla.
