The time has come that I break the silence and update everyone. ☀️ 🧘🏻♀️ ✌🏻
The last couple years have.been.crazy!! I think we can all agree on that. 😅
During the pandemic it was priority for me to be working on my Z E N ….which believe it or not did NOT include much social media.
For years I had been tied to it, through this amazing business. This journey was a magic combination of online and in person interactions with all of my beautiful supporters that was fuel for the soul! I thoroughly enjoyed our various Facebook lives, in person pop-ups in your homes and mine, events on the road and MORE! I could confidently share parts of my life knowing our community was tight knit and a safe place and I loved hearing updates on your lives, too! I want each of you to know I value, so so much, your love, support and friendship through the years. Many of you have become like family!
Facebook was a place of celebration, excitement, joy and calm for me! Until…it wasn’t.
The online world became more and more combative: people fighting over everything from covid to politics to parenting and the list goes on and on. The divisiveness was just tooooo much. I had to step away. ☺️ And I’m sorry if that abrupt absence worried any of you, I didn’t really have a choice and it was more of a survival move to protect my sanity. 🙃
Meanwhile our life changed drastically when our kids came home full time from school. Chris was working just 5 days and then had 5 days off. We focused more on our family unit and did lots of traveling. We clung close to our local small group of friends our “quarantine crew” and our kids became like siblings. That year was special. Once our kids were back in school full time in fall of 2021 and Chris was back to work — I became a full time chauffeur and driving them to/from school and activities took up most of the dang day and night.
I will forever be grateful for the extra time spent with my kiddos these last two years between a year of e-learning at home and a year or TONS of time spent together in the car— I know it was a gift! They grow up so so fast.
Meanwhile, there was always a glaring reminder in the front of my home and a nagging in the back of my mind - “What to do with LuLaRoe.”
That brings me to this past summer, June of 2022 it was clear I would have free time opened BACK up to choose whichever route would fit best for our family’s and my needs. Connor was now driving himself (😱) and Charlotte’s logistics alone I could balance with work. But what work would I want to pursue? I knew once summer was over big decisions had to be made. I was looking forward to moving forward and knew it was time to make up my mind about what my future was with LuLaRoe.
July came and God had other plans — it always works out that way, doesn’t it?? The GIANT changes that faced our family basically made LuLaRoe an impossible option. God had helped me finally decide. Finally make up my mind. Finally be able to let go.
We now faced a cross-country move which Chris has been working towards for YEARS aannnnnnnnd we learned…I - WAS - PREGNANT. 😳🥰🥰🥰 Both beautiful and exciting — we are so blessed and happy!!!
Soooooo we’ve worked tirelessly these last couple of months to get our house ready to go to market which of course meant re-homing all of my LuLaRoe.
I’m so so so happy with how that worked out. 👏🏻 My beautiful, talented and OH SO SWEET friend from MN flew in, got a uHaul, and we loaded up allll the goodies for her journey back. From the moment I knew we needed to get it cleared out and FAST I had hoped she would be the one. She has such a great presence with her customers— super fun and positive vibes all the time in her group! Be sure to join: LuLaRoe Bobbi Jo Otte She’s simply the BEST and will take such good care of you. 🥰🥰🥰
So that pretty much brings us to today. Here I am in my beautiful home, a blank canvas for the next family to enjoy. This space pictured here has been the best gift. And I thank you for sharing it with me and making it all possible.
✋ I want this to be very clear: my journey with LuLaRoe will always be something I cherish. I appreciate the company, my colleagues, and most of all my supportive customers. Our family’s future was changed because of this opportunity and because of YOU. Dreams literally came true — I’ll forever be grateful. 🥹🥹🥹 Thank you for helping me believe in myself — this experience will always grant me confidence and courage to tackle any creative endeavor I may want to pursue. I love you all!!!
On behalf of Chris, Connor, Charlotte, baby Chase, and myself — THANK YOU. 🙏🏻 ❤️❤️❤️
