This has been such an eventful year & a half of renovations, preparations, and unexpected growing pains. When I first walked in my building, I saw infinite possibilities and the perfect space to bring my dream into reality….yet I wasn’t aware of all the nuances that came with successfully opening a brick & mortar.
Opening the doors of an actual store is totally different than doing a popup or just renting a space out. It requires time, effort, determination, faith, and what seems like endless MONEY 🤣
Although I’ve been blessed with an amazing support system of family/friends/business owners/ mentors, this is MY dream so I’ve taken the full financial responsibility…no loans, credit cards, big investors, or venture capitalists…just ME boot strapping and working to make this happen.
I’m so grateful for those who’ve invested their time, talents, skills, and energy. I thank yall for every share, encouraging word, and prayer.
Now I’m asking for financial support to help bring this project to completion. We’re FINALLY at the finish line, yet need additional assistance to bring it on home for the city & the world.
