Beauty Revealed

Today marks the 20th day that I have written in a row for this blog. These mornings have been hard at first, but now as I sit at 4:32am on a Saturday morning I feel blessed for these cozy moments of creativity. Yesterday, I was feeling rather nervous to launch the accelerator for SEW BROMO but when I woke this morning I am thrilled to welcome back previous members and new ones.

I was very ambitious with the start of the year, completing the SEW MONEY Guide, the Fashion Innovation Hub portal and now the 2025 program year for the Fashion Entrepreneur Needle Trades Membership. Yet I have surprised myself to find that we are ready and on time for onboarding the community today. This year is one where I start with my heart and dive into my dreams kicking and swimming beyond the pull of my mind to shore.

Despite some campaigning for these new programs we have received light engagement. As a seasoned founder I know that is when I need to expand my reach to grow the community globally and am excited for this fantastic challenge turned opportunity. Let your steps build the momentum that moves your dreams into reality.
