Meet Porshla Scheuble.
Suite 258. Be Well Esthetics.
Porshla is a licensed esthetician and certified nutritionist, and that combination is intentional. Because skin doesn't exist in isolation. What you eat, how you sleep, what you're navigating internally, it all shows up. She wanted to be equipped to address all of it.
Her path here wasn't a straight line. A divorce. A career pivot. A personal diagnosis that deepened her understanding of the skin-body connection in ways no textbook could. The universe had a plan before she did, and Be Well Esthetics was built on everything she learned along the way.
Every client who walks through her door works with her directly, every time. She knows your skin, your history, and your goals, because she's been there for all of it.
Outside the studio, you'll find her deeply woven into this city. Salem Chamber Emerging Leaders Ambassador. Volunteer. Committee member. Mom to Mathis, who keeps her grounded and very busy.
Skincare is her craft. Salem is her community. She takes both seriously.
Find her on the second floor, Suite 258.

The Summer Block Party passport is officially live. Take a scroll: the full lineup, who's setting up on the street, which downtown stops are in on it, and how the whole day unfolds from first foam party to final judging.
Consider this your homework, start planning your route now. And yes, the enter-to-win is on there too, but entries don't open until day-of. We see you, early birds ;) Link in bio to explore. Hop in the comments and tell us what you're most excited about.

Consider this your game plan. 🙌🏼☀️
Six hours, zero slow moments, and that’s just what’s happening on the street. Screenshot away, totally encouraged, but the link in our bio has the whole day in one place: the full schedule, every vendor setting up on Chemeketa, and the downtown passport of businesses running activities and deals beyond the block.
Plan your route now 🙌🏼

There’s a version of self-care that sounds like a wellness brochure. And then there’s the real one.
Sometimes it takes ninety minutes and a full circuit.
Sometimes it takes one glass of wine and a seat by the window. Sometimes it’s someone’s hands in your hair and a conversation you didn’t know you needed.
However you define it, it’s already here.
Three floors of people who do this for a living.
Today happens to be International day of self care 🙌🏼 We hope you celebrate it well!

Nine days from now, you'll be standing in the middle of Chemeketa Street with something cold in your hand, watching someone juggle fire while a foam party happens somewhere behind you.
We can't fully explain the day; you kind of have to come stand in it. Live music, local vendors, food, a chalk art contest, and a whole street of downtown Salem closed just for this. August 1, 11 am to 5 pm, co-hosted with Salem Center.

Meet Arielle Riffe.
Suite 254. Shanti Soul Counseling.
Shanti means inner peace. Arielle didn't arrive there overnight; she spent years on her own journey, trained with healers around the world, and worked as a therapist for over a decade before she built the practice she always wanted to create.
She works with high-achieving women. The ones who are great at showing up for everyone else and quietly running on empty. Her approach blends modern therapy with mindfulness and body-based tools, not to fix you, but to help you find your way back to yourself.
Her space is warm, grounding, and intentionally cozy. It's the kind of room where your whole system exhales the moment you walk in.
And if you were picturing someone very serious and serene, she'll probably be the first to make you laugh. Belly laughs included. Cussing not off the table.
Find her on the second floor, Suite 254.
