A very odd thing happened this week and it’s stuck with me.
I was in the street not really aware who was around me when a man asked why I looked so worried.

I’m not sure why I told him but I said that I was thinking about growing my business and had some big decisions to make.

He told me this story that I’ve shared about the small plant in a small pot and it struck a chord with me. He knew nothing about me nor how relevant a plant analogy would be to me with my agricultural background.

But when I look back at choices I’ve made in terms of plants and pots it makes complete sense.

I’ve invested more than I want to count in the past with accountants, strategists, coaches and advisers but this one tiny interaction with a stranger was absolutely priceless.

Here’s hoping we all get to choose the bigger pot!

Do you get bored making curtains? 🤦‍♀️

Come spend some time with me and see the windows I’m lucky enough to measure…

I love a window, love properties, love people, love my job!
