I started making handmade soap in the summer of 2021 and launched my business shortly thereafter. This channel is where I document all the behind the scenes that goes into growing this business, from expanding product lines (soy candles, lip balms, shower steamers, bath salts, etc.) to the mental challenges of running a business on my own with ADHD and anxiety, to celebrating the wins as I grow bigger than I could have expected. I appreciate this community so much and am extremely grateful for every single viewer! Feel free to check out my products at Bushyl.com!
Reviewing Brambleberry's Bella Vita fragrance collection - one obvious fave!
*This is not sponsored content!*
This is my first time buying an entire fragrance collection from Brambleberry and I thought you might want to watch as I open each scent for the first time and give my initial thoughts on each oil. I chose the Bella Vita fragrance collection because I was curious about the summer vibes they were giving with the Italian vacation theme. I'm always struggling to hit just the right note with summer fragrance and I wanted to see what the experts were putting together.

The comparison trap (what you don't know about other people's success) - Vlogmas Day 14
Просмотров 378Год назад
Why do we insist on punishing ourselves through comparison? Especially as small business owners, there are so many factors beyond what you see from the outside that affect a business's success. I was reminded of this annoying habit of mine at a recent speaking event featuring one of my good friends and it was a clear reminder to me that even the people and businesses you think you know might ha...
