I’ve started to write this many times…and the reality is, I’m speechless. I’m overwhelmed with sadness, but at the same time extreme gratitude. I can be sad and grateful at the same time, right?  I’m having trouble finding the words for a journey that is coming to an end, but was so beautiful along the way. Thirty-One announced that after 21 years we will be closing our doors permanently on December 15th, 2024.  I’m sure some people will read this message and feel like it’s dramatic because so many have gone through the loss of a “job” before.  I’m certainly not the first.  But for me, it was never just a job.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝘀:

I’ve spent a quarter of my life with Thirty-One

I became an entrepreneur with Thirty-One

I built a team with Thirty-One

I built a community with Thirty-One

I learned to be a leader with Thirty-One

I raised my babies with Thirty-One

I traveled the world with Thirty-One

I met my best friends with Thirty-One

I became a better mom…because of Thirty-One

I became a better wife…because of Thirty-One

𝗜 𝗮𝗺 𝗯𝗲𝘆𝗼𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗸𝗳𝘂𝗹 for those who have supported me from the start, and those who have joined me along the way. You are the reason I am still in business almost 11 years later.
