I’VE NEVER SHARED THIS BEFORE... I continued to handcraft thousands of bottles for @thegoldensecrets with only one hand. At times I could only really rely on my two thumbs. This included daily hours of computer work & shipping too🙈 It was during the busiest time @thegoldensecrets had ever had and I knew if I was going to bridge the gap between handcrafting and manufacturing I needed to push through. I could not have done it without the help of my husband @devanclong , my son @kaleogolden and @sandyy_elizabethh 💛 People ask me all the time, how did you build your business not having been to business school or having any business experience? I really believe that this is the type of grit that you need to have... you need to be a little crazy, determined, and unwilling to to compromise on anything less than perfection. Unless of course you have millions of dollars in funding and can just hire everybody else to do everything for you. But that was never an option for me and even if I did have the funding to do that, my products have always been my babies and they had to be done a certain way. I was never willing to compromise the quality and efficacy of my products and I think that is apparent when you experience them. It took almost 2 years for me to approve my products in manufacturing. I was determined to keep making them myself until they were perfect. Listen to my latest interview in entirety on @sydneylich Prism Podcast. Link in bio.
