After rapid growth, I faced a harsh reality: I was burnt out, and poor decisions led to losing our building in December 2023. The weight of being a solo entrepreneur caught up with me, and I lost motivation to create. Reflecting on what went wrong, I realized I forgot to prioritize the business amidst the chaos. Losing the building was a tough lesson, but it wasn't the end. My landlord, Tony, a close friend, offered me a spot in his building next door. He didn't want me to give up, and his support meant the world. From this tiny space, I continued shipping orders, albeit at a slower pace. Tony's words of encouragement kept me going, even after I lost my footing. Sadly, I lost Tony this July, but his advice and motivation over the past year and a half have stuck with me. His support and legacy continue to inspire me. I'm finding my footing again, and I'm grateful for second chances. ME VALE CREATIONS may have faced setbacks, but we're not done yet.
