00:00:26:13 - 00:00:29:04
Meghan
Welcome To chronicles of Caffeine and ambition. I'm Meghan.
00:00:29:06 - 00:00:30:11
Stacey
I'm Stacey.
00:00:30:13 - 00:00:35:08
Meghan
So we're going to start it all off. How did we get into this?
00:00:35:10 - 00:00:36:09
Stacey
That’s a big story.
00:00:36:11 - 00:00:37:05
Meghan
That’s a big story.
00:00:37:06 - 00:00:40:00
Stacey
It's a long time ago too. Let's go back to the beginning.
00:00:40:02 - 00:00:43:11
Meghan
We're actually sisters, so there's that. Let's start there.
00:00:43:13 - 00:00:47:13
Stacey
At the beginning. Oh my gosh. We shared a room.
00:00:47:15 - 00:00:50:12
Meghan
Stacey's the older sister, by the way.
00:00:50:14 - 00:01:02:18
Stacey
You can't tell, I know. I look younger. Yes, I am the older sister, but we I’m in the middle sister. So the. We shared a room when we were kids.
00:01:02:20 - 00:01:05:10
Meghan
Stacey fell out of the bunk bed!
00:01:05:12 - 00:01:25:18
Stacey
Naked. by the way, that's another story for another episode. Oh my gosh. And we we grew up in the middle of nowhere. At that time, it was the middle of nowhere. We, had 50 acres. We had a chicken farm. We had an acre garden.
00:01:25:20 - 00:01:32:23
Meghan
It was it was homesteading. it was. best. It was it was back to the country. It's like what everybody's doing right now, what the millennials are doing right now. That's what we grew up in.
00:01:33:01 - 00:01:53:20
Stacey
And it's funny because I remember being older like a teenager and saying, oh, I hate this life. I can't wait to get out of here. I can't. And now I sent Meg a farm last night and was like, we need to move in together and buy this farm so that we can go back to how we live, because I miss it so much.
00:01:53:22 - 00:01:58:15
Stacey
It's so crazy how life goes.
00:01:58:17 - 00:02:15:07
Meghan
so for all of you, anybody who has siblings, and I don't think it matters the dynamics of the siblings if you if you have siblings or if you have heard the jokes, if you're the only child and you've heard the jokes about it, they're 100% true. We are our own people. And when you live with someone, you don't always get along.
00:02:15:08 - 00:02:23:13
Meghan
Yeah, we were we were really close. I don't want to say best friends when we were little, because I don't know that we were that close. Like you always had your group.
00:02:23:15 - 00:02:32:05
Stacey
I think we had to be friends when we were little because we were closer in age. And you had to come play with me because mom was like, take your sister with you.
00:02:32:05 - 00:02:43:04
Meghan
I mean, I can't I can't even count on my both hands. How many times did you get angry because I followed her around or wanted the same haircut? So maybe we weren't really friends so let’s back that up. We got along.
00:02:43:06 - 00:02:58:02
Stacey
We did get along. We did. It's not like we didn't talk. We did. We got along just fine as siblings do. and then you sort of split apart becoming a person as a teenager. I became extremely angsty.
00:02:58:04 - 00:03:02:10
Meghan
It's like the horror stories of teenage girl. That was me. That was Stacey
00:03:02:15 - 00:03:05:11
Stacey
That was me. Yeah. So,
00:03:05:13 - 00:03:23:15
Meghan
So we split apart at that point. I mean, I mean, that's that's hard for anyone. It's hard for the person going through it, but it's hard for the person who was with you in the beginning anyway. So, I mean, ups and downs and it continued because, I mean, we're we're siblings and we work together now. So there are always ups and downs, not so many downs now.
00:03:23:17 - 00:03:42:02
Stacey
It's worked well, I think, because as you, I mean, you grow, you go to person, you grow into understanding the people and the psychology behind why people do what they do and how people tick. And so I think it has become a lot easier now to be friends and business partners. Now, because let me tell you, it wasn't in the beginning.
00:03:42:04 - 00:04:04:20
Meghan
No, I didn't mean. That's what I mean. We have leveled, but we've grown dramatically. Yeah, through multiple businesses, through UPS and downs of the business, through failures, through, we've grown dramatically as people and they grow into together. but just like when we were kids, it was we were close, then were not, we started the business. We were.
00:04:04:22 - 00:04:21:19
Meghan
We were close, I suppose. But that's I mean, it's one of the things that I go back to frequently. I'm like, when we started our first business together, it was a it was a joke for a while that we were going to take over that business because we worked in it. Since we've been in this, we've been in the wedding industry for almost three decades.
00:04:21:21 - 00:04:22:08
Stacey
Oh.
00:04:22:10 - 00:04:37:20
Meghan
We're not going to count those years. The, but we joke for so many years that we would take over that business, never really thinking that it would actually happen. Yeah, I traveled for a while, came back, had a job, had a, like a proper 9 to 5 job.
00:04:37:23 - 00:04:57:23
Stacey
I did the same job for the last almost three decades essentially, and sit here or worked through it. And then on the off season when we didn't have work, would go work at like a flower shop. And then I come back and work in this, you know, the industry. Yeah. And, and then, yes, I called Meg one day and was like.
00:04:58:01 - 00:05:02:18
Meghan
Essentially out of nowhere because I don't honestly remember there being conversation about this ahead of time
00:05:02:20 - 00:05:11:05
Stacey
Is there anything I ever do where it doesn't come out of nowhere, where it's like, No.
okay, so in the little bit we're going to have a discussion? No, it's like, no, we're doing this right now. yesterday
00:05:11:07 - 00:05:30:18
Meghan
I'm at my job like I was at work and Stacey calls and she's like, so I'm can take over this business, but I don't want to take it over. If you don't come with me. And honest, I honest to God, my my answer was why? I we were that close at that time that I was like, obviously you wouldn't do something without me.
00:05:30:22 - 00:05:37:12
Meghan
I was like, no, seriously, why do you why why do you want to work together? Because I've been hit, miss so far. Yeah, yeah.
00:05:37:13 - 00:05:43:11
Stacey
So I'm like the best of friends and work well together. Really. And I'm like, no. It’s good idea. Yeah.
00:05:43:13 - 00:05:56:23
Meghan
but I said yes. I mean, because, like, you're like, why not? That kicks it all off. That was the beginning of why not? Because I was like, I mean, it's the job that I was I was a contract anyway, so it wasn't something that I wanted to do for the rest of my life either. So take over business.
00:05:56:23 - 00:06:31:15
Meghan
I didn't know what I was doing with my life, so I was like, yeah, sure, okay, sure. You want me to do the book work? I have no training in that. But sure, sure, I can do that.
00:06:31:16 - 00:06:57:11
Meghan
So our second business, it came about. We were our first business was so dependent on. On the second. So the second business is the bridal shop. So Sinders Bridal House. our first business was so extremely dependent on the bridal shop that when we found out the bridal shop would either they were moving or, shutting down, they it was an internal struggle for them.
00:06:57:11 - 00:07:07:15
Meghan
So who knew what was going to happen in their business? And so they came to us because we were so we were symbiotic. We worked so closely together. So they came to us to tell us before, before it was announced.
00:07:07:19 - 00:07:09:12
Stacey
Yeah.
00:07:09:14 - 00:07:16:19
Meghan
I mean, I don't feel like a logical thing for somebody to say as well, why don't we just buy it?
00:07:16:21 - 00:07:21:09
Stacey
Why not?
00:07:21:11 - 00:07:51:20
Meghan
So that, in all honesty, is how we end up with the second business. Because. Because the first one needed it. Otherwise we would have to face the idea of how to change our first business. Either shut it down, which was a loss to us and the employees. but also we could change it. I don't know, I mean, at that point, it's changed the entire structure of what you're used to in your business, in something you've grown like in this was eight years in.
00:07:51:22 - 00:08:06:20
Meghan
We've been running the business for eight years. Right. So at that point, you're pretty well established. We we have our plans. We were ticking along. Everything was was going generally all right. Do you shift everything that you're doing.
00:08:06:22 - 00:08:26:15
Stacey
Could we have. Yes, absolutely. We could have we could have moved everything into the city, with them if they were moving to the city. But again, I think it also for us was a someone else has a hold on our business because we're so reliant on that business. And I don't want to do that. and it's not like you don't always say, why not?
00:08:26:19 - 00:08:43:21
Stacey
It's not like we say we're not. It's just willy nilly. Oh, let's just do whatever. It's not that at all. It's. Why not? Because I think it's, We're we enjoy the jump into a bit of an unknown, but also the jump ahead. It's something that is,
00:08:43:23 - 00:08:48:23
Meghan
We're not stable. One line people. We're a little bit erratic.
00:08:49:01 - 00:09:11:20
Stacey
We we laugh often and joke about how we live. Right on the very knife edge. And that fine line of going complete insanity. But I would never. I don't think I ever want to do it anything different. I enjoy that edge, living on the edge all the time. I think that. You can one go around at this life, man.
00:09:11:20 - 00:09:16:16
Meghan
Like, let's slide through that end goal post. Just like beat up.
00:09:16:18 - 00:09:28:14
Stacey
I want to slide through there and be able to sit on the rocking chair and tell my grandkids how what I did in my life and I want we're going to be like, she's crazy.
00:09:28:16 - 00:09:29:18
Meghan
Sure. grandma sure grandma
00:09:29:18 - 00:09:30:16
Stacey
00:09:30:18 - 00:09:31:21
Meghan
That I'm not sure.
00:09:31:21 - 00:09:44:09
Stacey
That's exactly what I want to hear. So I think, I think I also for me, it's also showing other people that it is possible.
00:09:44:10 - 00:10:03:22
Meghan
and I think that's why why, why not has become a catchphrase for us. Because so many people don't start the business. Don't take that leap Don't do the thing that they want to because they're worried about the consequences. They're worried about not knowing enough. And why not became a thing for us? Because we were. Yeah. If you don't take that leap, you're never going to do it.
00:10:03:22 - 00:10:05:14
Stacey
No. Oh my gosh. I agree.
00:10:05:16 - 00:10:19:13
Meghan
You can worry constantly. You can worry for worry for a year and and prepare and get everything set up in a line. But there will be a point where you have to start that business. Otherwise
00:10:19:15 - 00:10:20:14
Stacey
it'll never start.
00:10:20:14 - 00:10:21:02
Meghan
It'll never happened
00:10:21:02 - 00:10:22:06
Stacey
Never
00:10:22:08 - 00:10:36:03
Meghan
So that's why not is to us it's the jump. Yeah, absolutely. So we said why not take over a second business. I'm going to I mean, we have no background in business. We have no, what we do now. Sorry. Yes. Listen, at the.
00:10:36:03 - 00:10:40:18
Stacey
Time when we when we bought the first business, we had no background in business.
00:10:40:18 - 00:10:45:22
Meghan
And no schooling. No. No training. None. I'd probably read a couple of books that people had recommended.
00:10:46:00 - 00:10:54:03
Stacey
I did not, we'll get into that later. I don't read,
00:10:54:05 - 00:11:16:00
Meghan
Yeah. So the second business, I mean, I'm not gonna say that we trained a whole lot through the first business. Obviously we had we learned how to we learned HR, we learned payroll. We like we learn things of running a business. But were we prepared to take over a second business? No. Where we prepared for. I'm going to say no right off because I'm going to explain why not.
00:11:16:00 - 00:11:41:05
Meghan
We were not prepared for the fact that our first business was a service based business, and our second was an inventory based business. Yes. And inventory management is apparently its entire own thing that to this day and it's been we're almost over ten years now. Yeah. With this second business. Yeah. it's been ten years and I still the test inventory.
00:11:41:05 - 00:11:47:06
Stacey
I agree, I agree, which is why we brought someone on just for that.
00:11:47:08 - 00:11:48:00
Meghan
Just for inventory
00:11:48:01 - 00:11:54:06
Stacey
Just for that. But it took this long to do that. So yeah.
00:11:54:08 - 00:12:09:05
Meghan
So if you think of the business as, an extension of yourself, an extension of the families, Stacey and I , growing up had ups and downs, had good times, bad times, close. Not close. Yeah. There were times throughout our business, but we didn't talk to each other.
00:12:09:07 - 00:12:23:19
Stacey
There was. She's not lying. But what I was going to say is it was that bad. We had our our mom worked with us as well. So it was actually a family business. and it would be a mom we’re old at this point, like we have babies at this. I have babies at this point
00:12:23:21 - 00:12:24:06
Meghan
Yeah. you did
00:12:24:08 - 00:12:47:00
Stacey
Mom, can you tell Meg that I said this please? Like we're at that point, like we're five again. Like ridiculous. But but it was we did a long stint of that I think where it was us not speaking somehow still able to run a business. Don't ask me how, but we did it. But we grew out of that and we learned from that.
00:12:47:04 - 00:13:00:23
Meghan
Well, and this is how grateful that we are, and we are forever grateful for the people that we have with us. Our team, like the only reason we got through that acting so childish and so ridiculous. The only reason we got through it is because we have the team that we have.
00:13:01:01 - 00:13:04:08
Stacey
Yeah.and we still have a lot of that team now.
00:13:04:10 - 00:13:16:10
Meghan
Yeah. Everything ran, it continued running and we did our own pieces and affect the business in that way. But I mean, if we didn't have a good team behind us or if it was just us and we were just our family and it only works.
00:13:16:10 - 00:13:18:10
Stacey
it never worked at all
00:13:18:12 - 00:13:51:12
Meghan
would not work. So the business is 100% an extension of our family, and I suppose that's another part of it too. One of the most important parts of starting a business is running a business and wanting to be successful in that business. It is your life. Yeah, if you're not willing to give your life to that like you would a child, or a significant other than it might grow, I'm not going to say it's not going to, but you will struggle with because the time that it takes to to make it grow, the time that it takes to run the business.
00:13:51:14 - 00:14:12:07
Meghan
And we are extremely lucky regardless of the times. But we didn't speak and we were sisters and things went bad. Regardless of that, we always had each other to lean on when it went bad. So, the important aspects, I think, it's a it's an overused term, but I mean, it takes a village. We we grew up on a farm.
00:14:12:09 - 00:14:15:05
Meghan
It wasn't just us obviously taking care of everything.
00:14:15:07 - 00:14:24:13
Stacey
No, it was our it was our grandparents, our parents. It was us. It was like family. We we all came together to work together to make something grow bigger. And it was better because we all worked at it.
00:14:24:15 - 00:14:36:03
Meghan
And that's how we look at our business. Yeah. It's not just us, it's not just us making decisions. Even if we have the final say, we always ask for input because we might not know that answer. And we easily admit that, yeah.
00:14:36:05 - 00:14:40:18
Stacey
We might not know the answer, but there may be a better answer for it. And team might have it.
00:14:40:18 - 00:15:06:11
Meghan
the come up with the answer, regardless of what think, talk about anything will answer you anything. But you're right, it might not be the right answer. The best answer might not be the best way to go. Yeah. so for us, the village is the completely all important aspect to growing our business because our we created that core team with our first business, brought them with us into the second, rely on them heavily.
00:15:06:13 - 00:15:07:02
Stacey
Still.
00:15:07:06 - 00:15:11:15
Meghan
Still to this day. they take care of our kids.
00:15:11:17 - 00:15:24:07
Stacey
That's a whole other episode that we'll have to get into, because our kids were raised here as well. Yeah. So that village has not only taken us for business, they've also taken our family with them too.
00:15:24:09 - 00:15:41:06
Meghan
So what we've done is create this entire community around ourselves, our family and our business. If you don't have the family to do that with, because we had each other and we had our mom. honestly, in the very beginning when grandpa as well, because he funded our first business.
00:15:41:06 - 00:15:42:11
Stacey
That's the point. Yes.
00:15:42:13 - 00:15:59:18
Meghan
so if you don't have those pieces, you have to create them. You have to find them. You have to. You have to do that. I think that's the biggest thing that I've been saying lately. You have to create a community. You have to find the people that are support you, whether it's friends or family. Doesn't matter whether whether it's us, that's what we're here because we want to help people grow.
00:15:59:19 - 00:16:26:03
Meghan
We want your business to grow. We want to impact every person that we meet. We want to empower you, give you self-confidence. We want people to say, why not? We want the world to be. Why not? With restrictions, obviously, but, let's not get carried away there. We're here is the support. So I mean, if you need community, reach out to us because that's what we want to do is what we've had, and we're grateful for it.
00:16:26:03 - 00:16:29:18
Meghan
And not everybody has it. So we're extremely lucky and.
00:16:29:18 - 00:16:38:18
Stacey
We are very lucky.
But everyone needs a village.
00:16:38:20 - 00:16:42:16
Stacey
What’s that? what’s that quote? If you want to go fast go alone If you want to go far, go together. Go together.
00:16:42:18 - 00:17:00:15
Stacey
Now, in order for us to grow even more than what we've already got it to, because we can only get so far by ourselves, we had to bring somebody else in. Now, at this point when we did this, though, we were at a complete meltdown stage, like down in the depths, having to walk together, being like, I can't do this anymore.
00:17:00:15 - 00:17:04:01
Stacey
I can't work with her if I don't know what I'm doing. I'm not doing this.
00:17:04:04 - 00:17:10:00
Meghan
If we want to talk burnout, I mean, we will have a full episode on burnout because we did it yearly. Yearly? Not bad.
00:17:10:00 - 00:17:31:02
Stacey
Joke. Yeah, it was bad. So this is at one of our burnout times. My partner, my partner at the time said he'd be happy to join us. And so I talked with Meg about it. And at this point, since we're so burnt out, she was like, let's just do it. And I was like, okay. And we didn't even there wasn't a why should be is a good idea.
00:17:31:02 - 00:17:33:03
Stacey
And like there was no sort of.
00:17:33:04 - 00:17:40:07
Meghan
We knew all along that we needed another person to help us grow, because we'll be the first to admit that we're consistency is our downfall.
00:17:40:09 - 00:17:41:13
Stacey
Yes. It's.
00:17:41:15 - 00:17:42:19
Meghan
we have the ideas.
00:17:42:19 - 00:17:43:13
Stacey
Absolutely.
00:17:43:18 - 00:17:50:17
Meghan
But making them come to reality takes other people to support us. there was no. Yes.
00:17:50:21 - 00:18:09:01
Stacey
What I'm looking at, Meg, if you're not watching it on the YouTube, I'm looking at maybe like we. Because this used to just only be me. But we now are like two helium balloons who are like, if they're not tethered to something, we're gone. I don't know which direction we're going. We could be going separately. Who really knows?
00:18:09:04 - 00:18:21:20
Stacey
So we are essentially like that on a daily. But let me tell you, I'm getting somewhere. What far? I just don't know where that is. Just know. Just. All right. So the rock showed up, not the actual rock. Different guy
00:18:21:23 - 00:18:22:16
Meghan
not Dwayne Johnson
00:18:22:17 - 00:18:40:04
Stacey
This is my rock showed up and hold us both down because he is he comes from a corporate background and he is definitely a move it forward straight. It works like this. This is how we do it. He's he's so he's such our opposite.
00:18:40:06 - 00:18:42:02
Meghan
It’s like the rabbit in the hair.
00:18:42:04 - 00:18:45:20
Stacey
Man. That's exactly who it's like
00:18:45:21 - 00:19:03:10
Meghan
he's just chugging along doing the things and will be on like five different plans of different businesses and travel and things that we can do. Let's do this. He's our number one. But I mean, if we're serious about number one, then he'll at least start working on number one and make it work. Yeah, we're on number 4 or 5 and six.
00:19:03:12 - 00:19:04:09
Meghan
Seven.
00:19:04:11 - 00:19:34:23
Stacey
No start. No. I'm okay. We're gonna just go. Let's do this. All right? And he is. But he's there and he'll keep doing it. He plugs away until we're like number five. We're done. Number five now. And if we're actually serious that he'll start doing that too. Like he's he is great. He's perfect for what we need. And I think that's where we realized at that point when he came on that we need to start doing math since the business has gotten to a point where we can't be the sole proprietors, mom and pop shop business anymore, it's now getting a little large for us to hold in our hands.
00:19:35:04 - 00:19:48:05
Stacey
So we need to spread, spread it out and get people who know more than us and who are way better at these things than we are, which then in turn, also, once he came on, we did all this that brought us to our next business.
00:19:48:07 - 00:20:10:18
Meghan
So this is our third and most recent. Yes. and something that we have again, zero background in, but we don't have any problem jumping into it because I mean, by this point we've created our we've created our personalities or personas of the things that we're capable of work great, capable of talking to anybody. Absolutely. We can find out what that person needs.
00:20:10:20 - 00:20:31:13
Meghan
So that's our job. And that is translatable to so many businesses. So this this newest adventure has nothing to do with us, the technical side of it. So it's it's someone else's dream essentially. And what we said is we believe in you and we trust that you are. She's one of the hardest workers I've ever met. Yes, she will make that work.
00:20:31:13 - 00:20:51:04
Meghan
She has ability. She has the background. She and she wants it. So we're support and and background knowledge on how to run a business. So like I can take care of the government stuff and we can talk to the clients and those kinds of things, but that's again, we're creating a community. But for someone else.
00:20:51:06 - 00:21:20:00
Stacey
Yeah. What? You know what I mean. For me that feels great to be able to do that for somebody else. I don't need it for me. But to watch somebody else flourish and be. In flow, be in their state and their happiness and watch them do it is amazing. And that makes me happy, makes me happy to love my job, get up every day and do what I do.
00:21:20:02 - 00:21:31:06
Meghan
That's a good point. And it room like with the beginning stages of that business, it reminds me so much of our beginning stages where we were impressionable and excited and it was it's the beginning. It's the start.
00:21:31:06 - 00:21:31:21
Stacey
Yeah.
00:21:31:22 - 00:21:32:09
Meghan
Yeah.
00:21:32:09 - 00:21:33:05
Stacey
The start of that mountain.
00:21:33:10 - 00:21:33:17
Meghan
Yeah.
00:21:33:17 - 00:21:56:03
Stacey
Like and just ever climbing and maybe that's what it is and maybe that's what gives me joy to is the climbing of the mountain to get the. If you've ever ran a business, owned a business, done something, done something, actually just even like ran a marathon. Did something of some large proportion. You can understand that once you did it, it's over.
00:21:56:05 - 00:22:05:01
Stacey
It wasn't actually get into the top of that mountain because you're there and you get it and you're like, oh my God, you did it! Oh my gosh. And that moment is great. But the next day you're kind of like.
00:22:05:02 - 00:22:07:01
Meghan
Oh what? Now what?
00:22:07:03 - 00:22:18:08
Stacey
Okay. Yeah. What what do I do? So you realize is the whole climb is actually what the part that gives you that, like, I mean, for me, it just gives me I lot and I think.
00:22:18:08 - 00:22:56:02
Meghan
Which is also probably why we're on three businesses and we were planning a fourth. Yeah. Because we are slightly addicted to the dopamine rush of creating the business. Yeah. And thinking of all the possibilities. It's the helium balloon in an absolute windstorm.
Yeah. love it .Possibilities
Love it
are jumping. We might have an adrenaline problem. So extreme skill is necessary, especially when you're working on wedding gowns, because the secondary business, which is the business that that our seamstress was based so almost entirely around, was, it's a bridal shop.
00:22:56:02 - 00:23:10:23
Meghan
So our, our biggest business to this day is the bridal shop. selling wedding gowns and then the seamstress capability, the skill that's needed to work on those wedding gowns is astronomical. They're hard to find.
00:23:10:23 - 00:23:13:10
Stacey
Hard to find.
00:23:13:12 - 00:23:27:15
Meghan
And then, and then our third, which is the one that we have zero background in is digital marketing. So we're not the tech people. We're the red talkers. We're the ones that make you feel good about being in that company, but working with us, we’re being your partners.
00:23:27:17 - 00:23:40:22
Stacey
But if you notice, really everything, every one of those businesses has something to do with the other business and they need each other. It's not like we're willy nilly just doing things right. They all work together for each other.
00:23:41:00 - 00:23:54:10
Meghan
Yeah, yeah you are right. Well in the skills for us And the skills for us personally are the same through them. All right. Now we take care of the people.
00:23:54:10 - 00:24:12:22
Stacey
We also do a lot of social and we do social events where the ones going out to meet, greet, do that kind of thing. For Sinders it was style shoot. So which means you're going out to meet and greet, everyone else in the industry, or we go out to galas. we are the people. We are the face.
00:24:13:00 - 00:24:18:00
Stacey
and we are the ones, we attract the people to the businesses. Yeah.
00:24:18:00 - 00:24:36:15
Meghan
So I think what we've realized over the years is this is exactly what we're trying to get back right now. It's the empowerment. It's self-confidence. It's the ability to jump. It's the ability to say, why not? Because if you don't believe in yourself, you're not getting there. If you don't have the community, you might not, you might. It might be a struggle.
00:24:36:17 - 00:24:41:13
Meghan
we have the self-confidence, obviously. Definitely.
We don't have a problem with that
00:24:41:15 - 00:24:49:14
Stacey
Only through years of just doing it. It's this self-confidence, I think, also a bit of delusion.
00:24:49:16 - 00:24:58:05
Meghan
delulu is the solulu Absolutely. It sure is.
00:24:58:07 - 00:25:13:18
Meghan
but that's what we want to give people, is we want to teach people. That's why we're here, right? Yes. Agree. So that's what that's my goal is with this, with our, with our socials now with our podcast, with everything that we were trying to give back. We want you to learn self-confidence. We want you to learn to jump.
00:25:13:18 - 00:25:40:00
Meghan
We want we want to be there for you to do those things because it's it's nothing. It's a ride for us to see you grow, to see you established, to see you become empowered. And it's something that goes through every single piece of our business, all of them. When we, when we see the seams just work in a different way than she has, because we're always changing a little bit and having them work with the clients, which is something they've never done, empowering them to do that.
00:25:40:00 - 00:25:40:19
Stacey
Yeah.
00:25:40:21 - 00:26:03:01
Meghan
When we have a bride walk into the store to buy a wedding dress, watching them shift from fear essentially the anxiety and the fear of trying to find your wedding gown and the stress that we put on ourselves, the pressure that we put on ourselves around the wedding day and around finding a dress we want to see this shift of self-confidence and empowerment.
00:26:03:01 - 00:26:09:10
Meghan
So we laugh a lot. We don't take life too seriously. No we don't. We don't take those things too seriously. That's not something we take ourselves too seriously sometimes.
00:26:09:11 - 00:26:10:23
Stacey
Yeah, that's a good point. We give.
00:26:11:01 - 00:26:28:18
Meghan
but we love to laugh and we love to tell a story. So what we're hoping is that you can learn something from us and that we can help you grow. Follow us, subscribe. Like leave us comments honestly. Because what will make us and you go furthest is for us to know what you need.
00:26:28:20 - 00:26:52:22
Stacey
so that's great. Yeah, I love that. And you not only on this platform that you're listening to us on, watching us on, but we're also on most social media platforms of that Pinterest, Instagram, TikTok and, multi levels as well of it. between the Sinders, bridal house, between center sisters. we've got it all. You look this apps, you'll find us.
00:26:53:00 - 00:26:59:06
Meghan
Build the community, come with us. Join our community because we're growing. We're not done yet. We are far from done.
00:26:59:06 - 00:27:00:09
Stacey
Far from done.
00:27:00:11 - 00:27:06:15
Meghan
So our goals, our dreams. We'll talk about them. We'll show them we're so in the middle of them.
00:27:06:17 - 00:27:08:23
Stacey
Let's make sure your goals and dreams come true, too. Yeah.
