I still can’t believe I’m typing this… Pierce Fossils is officially a Premier Shop on Whatnot!!! 🥹🩵
Premier Shop isn’t something you can earn just by selling a lot. You have to consistently meet some tough standards each month. For months my life revolved around this goal. I’d start streaming at 9:00 at night and most nights I wouldn’t get off until 2 or 3 in the morning. I’d get a few hours of sleep, wake up, pack orders, answer messages, spend the day with Tommy until Max got home from work, finish packing orders, get ready for the next stream, and do it all over again. Every day felt like I was racing the clock because one mistake could’ve cost us everything we had worked so hard for.
Being Tommy’s mom will always be the most important thing in my life. Chasing this dream meant missing bedtimes during the week, and that was always so freaking hard. But every late night was about building something for our family and creating a future that gives us more time together, not less.
There were nights I got off stream and just sat there wondering if I was chasing something that wasn’t ever going to happen. But if you know me you know once I set my mind on something, I don’t quit.
I couldn’t have done this without my husband Maxwell and my in-laws Doug and Paige. While I was live, they were the reason Tommy was loved and cared for. Then the next day, Max and Doug would load dozens and dozens of packages into the car and make trip after trip to the post office to make sure my packages were scanned in on time. This wasn’t just my accomplishment. It took our whole family. What started as me and Max selling fossils online for fun has somehow turned into a real business and I am so grateful for that.
To every single person who has ever bought a fossil, joined a stream, shared a post, or believed in me… thank you. Every order, every bid, every comment, and every word of encouragement helped get us here.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you for making this dream come true. 🩵🦈
