It’s hard to believe that nearly two weeks have already passed since our epic floral weekend with Ms. Amy Merrick.
The past five mornings I have stared at a blank screen, trying to find the right words to describe all that occurred.
But it seems that nothing I write can even begin to capture the magic that I witnessed.
Seventeen of the most beautiful, talented, courageous souls joined us from all over the world, for a life changing stretch of days.
We cut flowers, we shared secrets, we talked business, we learned new techniques and discovered so many little tidbits and tricks that should help life flow a little more back home.
It takes serious guts to step into the unknown and give ourselves what is missing. Every one of the women present was brave beyond measure.
The conversations we started are already unearthing gold in my life.
I know none of us left unaltered. None of us came away the same.
These ladies blew my mind and totally cracked open my heart.
Their willingness to dig into the process of self discovery and listen to that tiny, whisper of a voice urging them to press on was amazing.
It’s so easy to feel that we are all alone on this journey.
But being with these beauties I was once again reminded that while each of us are on our own unique path, living lives unrecognizable from each others, we share so many of the same struggles, barriers and fears.
I am honored to have had the chance to witnessed such vunerability and grace.
I cannot wait to see what these women create in their lives from here!!!
