I guess we're in the holiday crazies already, and I promise I'm not here to bombard you with another Black Friday Cyber Monday email! I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you.
This year has been monumental for me. I went full-time in my business, my products are now carried in over 250 indie stores across America, and you can even find them in Anthropologie and
Urban Outfitters! Beyond that, there have been countless unquantifiable wins, like putting systems in place and finally learning what “top-line revenue” means.
But it’s also been one of the hardest years. Alongside these wins, I lost my best friend. We faced illnesses, navigated tough moments in relationships, and dealt with all the messy, unpredictable parts of life. It’s a reminder that growth, joy, and grief often coexist—and they’re all part of this journey.
It’s so easy to plow through life without celebrating or grieving—because life doesn’t slow down. The clock keeps ticking, and the to-do list never ends. Sometimes, we see someone’s highlight reel and forget there’s more to their story. Other times, we compare ourselves and lose sight of the good things happening in our own lives - no matter how big or small.
I'm thankful for traditions like Thanksgiving —they remind us to slow down, reflect, and take stock of what truly matters.
Whether you’ve purchased my products, shared kind words, or offered encouragement, your support has been a light for me in both the wins and the challenges. I wouldn’t be here without you, and I’m so grateful to have you in my corner.
P.S. We donated $240 to WNC thanks to your orders in October! XO
