About The Inspired Jewel

Inspired Jewel, LLC was founded in early 2023 by Austen Bourassa as a therapeutic and creative outlet. The story of our oils is simple. After losing 4 of the people closest to him, our founder needed a creative outlet to help him process his grief. Making our oils is a Zen-like process for our founder. Blending ingredients produces a peaceful harmony that is therapeutic. Austen (he/him/his) is a multi-disciplinary professional. Currently, Austen works in his native state of Rhode Island for a nonprofit healthcare system. He is a nationally certified pharmacy technician with a passion for learning about medication in all forms. His most intense passion regarding medication education includes cannabis and other traditional/natural medicines. This is reflected in the creation of Inspired Jewel's line of Wellness rollers. In May 2025, Austen received his Master's degree in Cannabis Science and Therapeutics from the University of Maryland, Baltimore. He holds a Bachelor's and a Master's degree in African-American Studies/Sociology as well as a Bachelor's in Healthcare Administration from Rhode Island College. He also achieved a Master's degree from Johnson and Wales University in Nonprofit Management. Plant medicine is customizable medication, so if you do not find something you think will be helpful or you are having difficulty figuring out what would be the best dose for you, we can work with you to custom blend according to your symptoms.
