People see the finished balloon setups.
What they don’t always see are the networking events, the preparation, the uncomfortable moments, the long drives, the conversations, and the decision to keep showing up even on the gloomy days.
This was my first time really taking you all along with me to a networking event, and honestly… it was needed.
As business owners, it’s important to get outside of your comfort zone, meet new people, learn from others in your industry, and continue growing beyond social media.
From getting dressed in the car, putting on my name tag, packing business cards and flyers, to walking into a room full of creatives and entrepreneurs… this is all part of the journey too 🎈
Because growth doesn’t only happen at the setup.
Sometimes it happens in the rooms you walk into.
Thank you to Burton + Burton for hosting such a welcoming event and creating space for connection within the balloon industry 💛
