๐ŸŒฟ Things are happening!! ๐ŸŒฟ

Yesterday we received approval for a game-changing grant!! What started as a chance encounter turned into the greatest grant application ever written. Weโ€™re so thankful for SeCTer - Southeastern CT Enterprise Region and excited to expand our business and offerings! ๐Ÿ’š

Tomorrow is the big day with WFSB in the shoppe at 9 am!! Catch us on live Thursday 9:00-10:00. Still nervous Iโ€™ll say something dumb, but I canโ€™t wait! The shop is looking amazing from all the prep this girl has been doing! ๐Ÿ’š

And thenโ€ฆ next Wednesday the 21st, Iโ€™ll be chatting with old friends on WILI 1400 AM from 4:00-5:00 pm. The ball is rolling and weโ€™re loving the ride!! ๐Ÿ’š
