About Mothersun and the Captain
Artist Statement:
"The journey started when I was 24 years old. My first job out of college was in the marketing department of the biggest luxury retail fashion company in Santa Barbara. After getting a solid foundation of online fashion marketing, I dreamt of a screen printing shop where I could print my art onto clothing and actually utilize my art degree that I was in debt for from the University of California, Santa Barbara. So, I quit my job, found a commercial space to rent, ended my lease at my house, went homeless, got a waitressing job, started to piece together a beautiful screen printing shop in the commercial space, and started to build a client list for commercial screen printing, as well as design my own graphic t-shirt line. And this was the life of my dreams between the ages of 24-30. On my 30th birthday, I found out I was pregnant. In my third trimester, I closed down my first baby (my business), and sold it. I gave birth to a healthy little girl we named Soleil Brightyn. I was determined to figure out how to raise a baby AND make money for myself so she didn't have to be raised in a daycare for the first few years of her life. One day, I walked out to my garage and dusted off the only piece of equipment I didn't sell from my print shop. It was my trucker hat printer. I made a few phone calls to my former buyers, got a few wholesale orders and made some hats. In 2015, when Soleil ("sun" in french) was 1 year old, I dreamt up my rebirth and called it Mothersun and the Captain. I would start making trucker hats again while my baby crawled around at my feet in my "studio by the sea" - it was really my garage : ). A year later, right before Sol turned 2, I became a single mother and escaped a situation that was soooo not my truth. I turned to Mothersun and the Captain as a tool to find my strength again. I began drawing powerful goddesses and writing positive affirmations and would hang them on my walls to remind me to stay strong during the most intense healing period of my life. I shared bits of my story of Single Motherhood on Social Media and in time, I built a little online community of women who helped support me and who I helped support as well. Today I am living my dream. I have an online retail business as well as a business school for women to help them build their own online businesses. I even have a super supportive and loving Husband I manifested through all of my healing. We both got married for the first time at the age of 35, and y'all, he's even a Sea Captain! I make the coolest trucker hats in the market, THE MOST cozy bamboo USA made tanks (they are the best nursing friendly tanks too!), thoughtful coffee mugs and reusable drinkware, and home decor for Millennial Mothers, Empowered Women, and their families. My goal is to inspire women to manifest their dreams and to never ever settle. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for being on this journey with me. Your presence here means everything to my Family and I.
Love,
Lindsey"
