Pauly Righini

Hi I’m Pauly! I became friends with Becka and Emily’s sister, Sarah, in elementary school and then over the years our families kinda merged into one big family. These days you can usually find me sitting at the register in the Somerville store scaring people who turn the corner and don’t realize there’s a person back there. When I’m not working at 4GoodVibes I offer VHS conversion services for anyone who wants to enjoy and preserve their old favorite memories. Beyond that I pretty much just like to quietly chill, eat a lot of French fries, and watch a lot of TV. Please bring your cute dogs with you to the store on Fridays so I can pet them…or just show me pictures of them😊 
❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 I have been working at 4GoodVibes for about 4 years now!

Pat Goin-St Clair

4GoodVibes is the most positive, upbeat place I’ve ever worked! “Good vibes only” is more than a mantra, it’s intention.  It’s truly a gift to spend time surrounded by beautifully crafted pieces, meeting wonderfully creative artists, and working with the nicest people imaginable!  Emily and Becka are a force of nature, generous, supportive, unstoppable!   (Emily is already family. 😉) What is my bliss?  Writing, theatre, music, (I also manage box office and hospitality at The Spire Center in Plymouth), the natural world, creating and making, art, history, decor & family! You can find Pat at our Kingston location, & has been working with us for about a year!

My crafting hobby has always filled my free time but I discovered my passion for wood flowers during the pandemic. I started Purple Ma’am’s Creations & joined all the talented artists at 4GoodVibes in Kingston. Recently I joined the awesome 4GoodVibes team, I work in the Kingston store. This is a fun & rewarding experience. I enjoy meeting other artists & hearing about their products. I’m all about helping others, so don’t hesitate to ask me, I’m here to help

Mel Raelin

Hey! I've been working at 4GoodVibes in Medford for 4 years, and thanks to Emily & Becka, the store is home to my inclusive bookshop, Book Wonder featuring stories and authors from historically marginalized groups. I love to chat with customers, and love to discuss all things TV and movies, gardening and art, LGBTQ+ and feminist issues, and how to get involved in our local community. My work lives have spanned from science education and exhibit design, to professional organizing and starting up and leading community organizations (including a Makerspace!) I absolutely love my job. Becka and Emily are an endless source of inspiration, motivation and new ideas, and help me grow as a person and entrepreneur every day. My favorite things to do at the store are to find the perfect book or gifts for customers who aren't sure what they want/need and to create and reorganize store displays and our storage space. Can't wait to talk about Stranger Things, pollinators, or the newest graphic novels the next time you come in!

Jazlynn Sturgis

Hey! My name is Jazlynn, owner of Journey to Self Designs, some hobbies I enjoy include making jewelry, resin art, writing, reading, painting, cooking, and yoga. I also love the beach and nature! I love working for 4GoodVibes and having my items in the stores. I love making drop offs at the store because that means I get to do some shopping with 300+ local artists! I could spend hours and hours looking at everyone’s beautiful items! Becka & Emily did an amazing job at creating a beautiful, comfortable environment for both their artists and customers and I feel honored/love being a part of it! Jazlynn is a part of our event coordinating & marketing team and runs our virtual craft fairs with us!
