Stories are one of the most powerful ways to learn because they allow us to understand at a deeper level. One of the most important things an business owner can do is help their clients win and so we wanted to create a space where the community can learn from each other’s experiences of how they’ve helped their clients succeed.

I have a regular client that I have been seeing biweekly for almost two years. She is a mom in her late 30s who tells me how when she drops her kids off at the bus stop she always feels like the prettiest mom there because she woke up with her lashes. She is a busy mom who does not always have time in the morning to put on a full face. Seeing how happy she is every time she walks out of my lash room is such a blissful feeling. Read more>>

It all started with a phone call…this call came a few weeks after graduation asking if I would still be able to shoot a senior portrait session. I scheduled a time to meet up to find out more about the recent graduate and to get to know his personality and style in order to best plan for his photo session. We came up with a vision and I got to work creating an itinerary for the day of the shoot. Read more>>

What, once upon a time, got started as an entrepreneurial class project at a Global Supply Chain Program hosted by the Miami Dade College became a life-changing endeavor for Niurka Castaneda, founder of AMOR Umbrella – a Florida based boutique enterprise bridging the gaps between the arm forces community and civilians across the nation. Now her vision and her mission are growing into a movement representing the rich cultural diversity of all military branches, specially 2M+ women veterans who often feel forgotten, left behind and invisible.

I started my business with the goal that “a stay at home mom on a budget could put her kids on the school bus, and before they got home, create something beautiful.” This has been the most rewarding part of my job. There are days when things are difficult–supply chain and shipping issues due to covid that STILL affect us, finding reliable employees, rising costs of almost everything….BUT when I get an email from a customer who is thrilled with their new kitchen or bedroom it means everything to me.

As we are only in our 2nd year, repeat customers are few. One couple who came back for their 2nd stay was an 81 year old couple. This time the husband had wanted to surprise his wife with a simple celebration as it was their 60th wedding anniversary. He had never made anniversaries special and he partly blamed this on the fact that he had 2 sons and no daughters. Well, we spoke secretly for a couple months and I helped organized a private catered dinner with a private musician at camp. She had no idea and was completely blown away by what he had done for her. Her smile and our hard work, was such a special moment for us. Read more>>

We have had so many wonderful success stories with our customers but this one stands out the most. This was a few years ago but we had this client call us saying that he was an over the road truck driver. He was here on a contract away from his home for a few months and was experiencing a lot of pain and asked if we could help. We always love a good challenge and helping people is what we do so of course we said yes! Read more>>
