Life lately……
The last 5 weeks have looked a bit different behind the scenes.
After some unrelated tests, I was diagnosed with early stage 1 breast cancer.
It’s been a whirlwind of appointments, scans, surgery and a lot of emotions to process quietly while still trying to keep life moving normally for our family and business.
Last week I underwent a lumpectomy and sentinel lymph node removal surgery, and I’m incredibly grateful that my results have now come back clear with no spread to my lymph nodes. Such a huge relief and I’m now considered cancer free! 🤍
I still have radiotherapy and ongoing hormone treatment ahead, but thankfully everything was caught early and my prognosis is very positive.
What makes this all feel even more surreal is that just before my diagnosis, I had made the decision to really grow this little business in a big way this year. New brands, new collections, more stock, bigger plans… all things I was so excited about.
So while the last few weeks have been emotionally and physically challenging, this business has also given me something positive to focus on. I’m still here packing orders, replying to messages, sourcing beautiful products and pouring my heart into what I’m building every day.
Supporting small businesses truly means more than most people realise. Behind every order is a real family, real dreams, and sometimes real life happening quietly in the background too 🤍
Thank you for every order, message, kind word and bit of patience lately. It truly means more than you probably realise 🤍
Here’s to slower mornings, healing, and moving forward with a whole new appreciation for life.
I’m more excited than ever for what’s ahead here 🤍
