Six years.
Six years of sleepless nights.
Six years of wondering if the risk was worth it.
Six years of pouring my whole heart into something that didn’t always guarantee me anything back.
Being a small business owner isn’t pretty every day.
Sometimes it looks magical.
Sometimes it looks bleak.
There were nights I questioned everything.
Moments I felt stretched thin.
Times I may have pushed too hard but that’s how I learned from my “Miyagi.”
And Kim… you have to be proud.
Three of your girls left your wing and opened thriving businesses of their own.
That’s legacy. That’s leadership. That’s impact.
I am so grateful this business has allowed me to show up for my family.
To pivot when life says, “It’s time.”
To jump when it feels terrifying.
I pour everything into my business because someone once poured into me. To my girls, Thank you 💝 every one of you along the way has been instrumental to our growth. To my customers, you are the reason I want to do more! And to my family, you are my purpose 🙌❤️
It there’s a nugget of advice I can offer is that if you feel that burning gut feeling…
When you find yourself obsessing silently over something that feels like just a dream…
Trust it.
Follow it.
Unleash it.
If you don’t start, you’ll just never know.
Life has a funny way of whispering, “It’s time.”
And when it does… jump.
Forever grateful,
Jolene 🌿
