Michelle's Journey
Rising from Adversity
In the wake of my husband’s passing, I found myself at a crossroads in life, transitioning from a lengthy career in the non-profit sector at the age of 51. I faced the challenge of providing for my family as a single mother with teenagers still under my care. Traditional corporate roles appeared demanding, with inflexible schedules that clashed with my new responsibilities.
It was during this time of reflection that I pondered the possibility of creating a business that offered women the freedom to work on their own terms, harnessing their creative abilities while acquiring new skills as they saw fit. This idea struck a chord with my children, who encouraged me to revisit my earlier venture in the gifting industry from their childhood. I rediscovered my entrepreneurial spirit and fell in love with the creative independence and flexibility that came with owning a business.
