What one thing inspires you on a daily?
The fact that I wake up with my health and strength each morning….life itself….just to be able to make a positive difference in someone’s life….be it through a kind word, helping someone, being a friend…I love helping others!
How did you start blogging and what keeps you focused?
I started blogging to advertise my floral business and it totally turned into a different direction….I don’t get to feature my work as much as I would like, so, I’m going to try to focus on that more this year….and I really stay focused just from hard work….it’s very time consuming blogging…it’s a lot of hard work, especially when you also work another full time job as well as blogging…..my readers really keep me focused…when I get home and open my email and find a lovely note from one of the readers or a comment letting me know how they have found so much inspiration from the blog, it really is a great feeling!
What's your design style?
My design style is edgy…sophisticated….romantic
What words of inspiration do you have for other aspiring business women?
I would encourage them to stay strong and focused…surround yourself with positive people…there are going to be time when you are going to want to give up, but hang in there…to always be yourself……and to always help fellow business owners when you can…I think it’s so important as business owners to help each other along this journey!
Oh this is a great question….my MAC lip gloss, hand sanitizer, and a caramel nut brownie Luna bar….for those times when I’m too busy to get a real meal!
Note to Janie: Thanks so much for taking the time to share with us, I look forward to meeting you really soon!:) You are truly an Amazing woman!!
