Connect Who or what is your inspiration in business?

My parents worked incredibly hard to raise my siblings and I, so the idea of working hard for the things you'd like to have, and the change that you'd like to see has been gifted to me. Outside of that , I've got a real passion for inspiring my customers and helping them feel more confident with themselves and their wardrobes. It is a game-changer to find clothes that feel great and fit properly, and that's a luxury I'm happy to share with my community.

How do you stay motivated?

Creating a business is no small feat, and as I say all the time, "It's a journey". Focusing on the good days and how far I've come is always a great motivator. Day-to-day, I am fortunate to have rewarding conversations and experiences with my incredible customers and my community as a whole. Mission, and the Fraser Valley generally, is a pretty tight-knit community. Entrepreneurship has taught me that the world is much smaller than I had previously thought. :)

What would you do with the $25,000?

I have always taken pride in my ability to fit and serve as many different types of people as possible. A $25,000 prize would go allow to us take some more risks and dive-deeper into expanding our product offering in areas we currently are missing or that could use some more depth.
