Back in the Wallpaper* USA 400, and trying to actually let it sink in.
I’m not always the best at pausing to celebrate milestones. My instinct is usually to move on to the next challenge, the next problem to solve, the next thing to improve. But I’m trying to get better at appreciating moments like this.
Building a brand is a long game, and recognition like this reminds me that progress is often easier to see in hindsight than it is while you’re living it.
Thank you Wallpaper* Anna Fixsen Michael Reynolds for continuing to champion independent design and for including me in this year’s list. I’m truly grateful. ❤️
One foot in front of the next!
