DEI Policy

Mimosa is Committed To Creating a Safe Space for Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion for All

As both a physical store and an online shop that serves the needs of a diverse global community, we’re committed to supporting, honoring, and keeping our space safe and inclusive for our customers and our team members.

We are actively working to create and enact systems that promote diversity and equity in all aspects of our business – from our storefront to our online content, to the community events we offer. As we continue to learn and implement new policies and procedures, we will allow the following principles to guide us.

We believe that issues of Human Rights, Equity, and Inclusivity are a part of deeper spiritual work and that they should not be subject to spiritual bypassing.

We are committed to actively working to create a safe, comfortable, and welcoming space for all in our business and in our community. We believe that diversity is like a precious jewel to be cherished and celebrated and we honor the diversity of our community. Differences in beliefs and opinions are welcome here, but not when these words or actions cause harm to members of our community. We will NOT tolerate hate speech, bullying, or harassment in any of our spaces. People engaging in these activities will be removed from our space (in-person or virtual).

We strive to understand the ways in which white supremacy and unconscious biases related to age, race, gender, religion, and sexual orientation affect how we show up as individuals, and as a business, and we are committed to actively recognizing and overcoming these biases through personal education, team training, and active listening.

At all times, we seek to honor and respect the historic and cultural origins of metaphysical wellness practices we share in our shop, content, and events.

We welcome feedback about our shortcomings or about places we can do better. We will make mistakes, but we are committed to listening to our community, to learning more where we may fall short, and to doing better by doing the work (on an internal and personal level, on a business and team level, and as a part of the global wellness community).

When receiving feedback about our mistakes, our team will listen to the concerns, ideas, or recommendations made. We will then reflect on the issue as a team and implement the appropriate changes based on our commitments and the guiding principles above. Because we take this seriously, this may take time. We have implemented a specialized, 3-part procedure to work through any issues that may arise. Some of these changes will happen internally on the team level, and some will happen more publicly.

If you have any questions or comments about our DEI policies, or if you have feedback about your experience with our organization, please reach out here. We’re committed to listening, learning, and doing better.
