RoadTo10K
Hi!
So I know you've all been so twiddling your thumbs wondering whether or not my experience selling at a farmers market went well.
So finally, the truth... it went well!
(p.s. stay to the end because I get sappy)
I made TikToks about my experience, which you can find here and here. Speaking of TikTok, I'm on a mission. I'm on a mission to get to 10k followers on TikTok by August 1st! So if you want to help a gal out, give me a follow at @inbloombyemily on TikTok ;) I'm also open to doing collabs with fellow tiktokers, so hit me up!
I also want to give a special shoutout to my new brand ambassadors! These women are killing it with the content, check them out below -
Brianna - @brie_burgess
Diana - @simplyjournaling101
Navneet - @freedomwith.nav
Aliya - @aliyahaas
Winnie - @winnielzhang
Alexandra - @alexandra.dieck
Lastly, I'll depart with some words of wisdom: If it was easy, everyone would do it.
Starting a business is hard. It's discouraging at times. It's a lot of work with little pay out at first, but I am endlessly grateful for everyone's support and encouragement as I grow. Every time I get down on myself, I remember you. I remember that if I'm able to help one person, it's all worth it. If one person picks up a journal one day and finds relief in it, I have done my job. But I know in my bones that there's so much to come and people to inspire with In Bloom. And I hope you know that it's all because of you; every follow, like, or message I get keeps me going. Excuse me while I get my tissues, but from the bottom of my heart, thank YOU.
With love,
Emily
Me cheesin' at the farmers market
Artist Feature: Mustafa
Mustafa, more commonly known as Mustafa the Poet, is an artist from Toronto, Canada. His debut album When Smoke Rises explores his challenging upbringing in Toronto's oldest housing project, Regent Park. The album is characterized by grief, longing, and perseverance to stay alive in an environment swallowed by gang violence and substance abuse. Despite the heavy subject matter on the album, Mustafa also pens some of the most exuberant pop music of today. He co-wrote the Jonas Brother's hit song Sucker as well as songs off of Camila Cabello's first album. His ability to create juxtaposing music is a testament to his talent and ability to explore the highs and lows of the human experience. Fans of Frank Ocean will likely appreciate Mustafa's work. Take a listen on Apple Music, Spotify, or YouTube.
