2018 and change
2017 was a brutal year as we continued to grieve the loss of my mom.
Despite the pain, I had some amazing experiences at the 2017 HSCG conference as a presenter and as an instructor at Voyageur Soap & Candle and Windy Point Soap, meeting so many awesome people, and spending time with women I consider my business mentors and friends, like Michele from Windy Point, Tammy from Voyageur, and Jen from Lotioncrafter.
Our world and our lives are so different than they were 18 months ago, In the midst of all this chaos, I started asking myself some really hard questions: Who am I" What do I stand for" Why am I blogging, writing, teaching, offering youth programs" Could I be doing it differently"
Here's what I'm about: My goal is to provide evidence based, scientifically accurate information on ingredients, and to create lovely, safe, and stable formulas, which I share in a number of places, including this blog. I'm overjoyed at the idea of someone making something they absolutely love after reading something I've written. I'm not about making Pinterest ready products or taking pretty pictures of things on a marble surface with lavender buds strewn here and there. I've made very few video tutorials because writing, researching, and formulating takes up the bulk of my time. What I do is write.
During all of this soul searching and mission statement creating, I realized something else: I deserve to be paid for my work.
As you may or may no...
