For those of you who follow my newsletter, you already know how much I try to practice an attitude of gratitude all year round! But the holiday season has a way of putting things in clear focus and perspective. There is no better time in life and business than today (be it March or November or whenever) to practice gratitude. I know personally, when things are overwhelming or life gets chaotic, I have to check myself. But that’s why they call it a “practice”, right? It takes consistent work and we’re never really finished with that work.  

I’ve been sharing with my newsletter subscribers about the scarcity gremlins, a/k/a the negative self-talk in our head that makes us do things out of fear instead of from a place of clarity. I’m here to encourage you to kick the nasty gremlins to the curb and give you some tips + actionable steps that will help you keep them at bay.

As many of you know, I had the tremendous opportunity to attend Amber Housley’s Inspired Retreat a couple weeks ago. The impact it had on me and my business has been transformational, but not exactly in the ways I expected. Watch the video below for a taste of what this amazing experience was like.

This week, I want to share what happens after the client books. This is the part where we get to do what we do best – designing flowers and being creative, but there is a smarter way to approach ordering product than with a pencil, paper, and calculator. I’m sure you can already guess what I’m going to say…my lifesaver is my recipe program, Ularas.

A value I will always stand by in my business is being honest and transparent with our clients about our whole process, from beginning to end. It’s about building trust from the very start of our relationship so that they know they’re in good hands when they book with us.
