Winter Solstice | Happy Holidays & Happy New Year

We have entered the shortest time of year, the winter solstice that quiet time to reflect on the year that has gone by. This time of year, I like to look back both personally and professionally on the progress that I have made, the lessons that I have learned (sometimes the hard way), the dreams that were achieved, the fear that was conquered and such. Regarding ROSE & IVY, I have been so blessed and fortunate to meet and work with some very talented people this year. Those who believe and help foster a dream, sometimes I have to sit back in awe to realize that others see what I see and believe what I truly believe in.

Thank you for discovering, reading, enjoying and coming back as we continue to grow and evolve. We truly appreciate your support. We will be taking a break and returning January 2nd—I believe it is essential to step away to recharge, reclaim and unplug. Until then, I wish you the happiest of holidays and a very happy new year!
