Radical focus. Intentional strategy. Natural cycles.
THE HERE & NOW
THE HERE & NOW
A seasonal guide for indie retailers looking to uncover the “secrets,” skills, and cycles needed to build a sustainable shop.
You start your own business - things are going great, you’re thrilled to be your own boss and spend every day building the shop of your dreams! You’ve got all the energy in the world, are full of ideas and are determined to do things differently.
But slowly, the overwhelm creeps in. You’re not sure how to structure your time, you’re getting conflicting advice about “best practices” and your new boss doesn’t seem to have the answers.
Does this sound familiar?
Being a small business owner is hard enough.
Layer on the desire to buck traditional, profit-over-people, breakneck growth that most companies (and capitalism, generally) perpetuate and you’ve got your work cut out for you.
There is no shame in being overwhelmed.
It’s a worthy mission, but doing things differently means that there isn’t a well-worn path. You are creating your own roadmap! Carving out your own space! And that can be scary, not to mention isolating.

✨ You are complex being who wants to do things your own way, but would actually love some guidance.
