Sometimes it seems like our lives here in Canada are conducted from the confines of a bubble. We are so busy with our schedules and commitments that we don't have the time to reach out to the community around us. We feel isolated and alone as we make our way in this world. We have discovered in the past few weeks that this does not have to be the case, there are many loving and caring people all around us; all that is missing is the time to reach out and connect. Connection is such an important piece of our happiness that we tend to neglect. It makes you feel like you belong to something bigger than your bubble. When we started this company back in the summertime, networking was not something I thought would be a part of our lessons. The idea of it makes my tummy do flip flops; as, reaching out and asking for help from strangers is a very vulnerable position to be in. Turns out it's actually quite comfortable once you realize how amazing it feels to help others and to be the receiver in return. We have learned so much from people who are also in the business of selling their hearts and souls. I say that because whenever you start up a business, regardless of what you are selling, if it is something you are committed to, you pour so much of yourself into it. It is a very emotional endeavor; one that takes you on a roller coaster ride of ups and downs. I am so thankful that the girls and I have met some wonderful passengers along the way to share this experience with.
