October recap ✨🎄
What a busy month, but holy moly did we get a lot done! So many fun transformations that were absolutely exhausting but also SO MUCH FUN.
I truly love nothing more than working on displays at the shops and having time to be creative and design. And I think this month has really helped me realize just how much I need more of that.
There are SO many things that come with owning a business. A million little decisions to make, things to think about, problems to solve, and tasks that either need to get done by you or delegated to someone else.
And somewhere in the middle of all of that, it’s really easy to lose sight of the things that made you fall in love with owning a business in the first place.
I’m stepping into November, and honestly into 2027, with a much more concrete plan for how I can create more space for the things that light me up. More time designing, dreaming up ideas, making our shops feel like places people WANT to spend time, and doing the creative work that brings me so much joy.
Because I’ve realized that just because I can do something doesn’t mean I always need to be the one doing it. (A hard lesson for someone who likes to have her hands in everything 😂)
I’m learning that growing a business isn’t always about doing MORE. Sometimes it’s about figuring out what you’re really good at, what you really love, and building the right team and systems to make more room for those things.
Anyway, October was a whirlwind. I’m tired, I’m grateful, and I’m really freaking excited about what’s ahead. ❤️
Here’s to making more room for the good stuff. ✨
