In My Corner: A Thank You to My Biggest Supporter

Starting a small business is a wild, unpredictable ride — one filled with highs that make your heart soar, and lows that make you question everything. It's a journey fuelled by passion, late nights, endless to-do lists, and a whole lot of hope. But the one thing that has made it all feel possible, even on the days I felt like giving up, has been him.

From the very beginning, my partner has been my rock, my cheerleader, my sounding board, and at times, my unofficial business partner. He believed in me long before I believed in myself, and when I hesitated, full of self-doubt and fear of failure, he was the one reminding me why I started in the first place.

He's been there through every little moment, brainstorming name ideas over cups of tea, helping pack orders late into the night, making supply runs when I forgot something crucial, and encouraging me to rest when I tried to run on empty. He’s seen the tears, the tantrums, the triumphs and never once wavered.

What touches me most is that he never asked for recognition. He quietly stood in the background, holding me up so I could shine. He celebrates every win with me, big or small, and carries the weight of the rough days just as much as I do. It’s not always glamorous, sometimes it’s washing dishes while I’m knee-deep in stock or picking up dinner when I’ve completely lost track of time, but it’s love, and it means everything.

So today, this post is for him. Thank you for being in my corner. Thank you for holding space for my dreams. Thank you for loving me through the chaos.

This business wouldn’t be what it is without you, and neither would I. 💛
