Pretty is nice.
But it’s never been the most interesting thing about anyone.
I was raised around people who worked hard, built things, showed up, figured it out, and kept going. Farm family, small business owners, strong women, the best dogs, a husband who has carried more boxes than he probably ever agreed to, and in-laws who believed in this very specific tissue idea from the beginning.
That is the stuff that built me.
And somewhere in the middle of all of that, I built Blow Tissues from an idea into a real product in about six months.
Softer 5-ply bamboo tissues.
Tested PFAS-free.
A refillable box instead of a disposable one.
2% of sales donated back to public schools.
So yes, pretty is nice.
But useful, stubborn, soft, strong, and built with a point of view?
Much more interesting.
