Hey guys! 👋
Just wanted to leave a big thank you to all of the amazing people who've made this journey SO special so far. 💜💜
✨️I'd met my now husband, Steve, while I was still finishing college to become an LMT. Him and his 4yo daughter, Melaina, were understandably a package deal.🥰 So, after graduating, I put my plans on the back burner and dived head first into mom life. We got married and grew our beautiful family when our son Lawton came into the world. Eventually, I began working, extremely part-time, for a popular company that provides at home massage services. At that time, with a newborn and a 9yo, it made sense. But my dream to own my own business and work for myself was always sitting in the back of my mind. Then, when my youngest was ready to go to school, I felt it was the perfect time to dive into the business world. I had a business plan, enough money for a deposit, and my first month's rent, the bare necassities and supplies I needed to massage clients. That was it.
✨️But thankfully, it didn't take long. I was lucky to find a place where I could share a space and supplies with another business owner, which helped a lot. However, I only had 3 days a week that I could use the space. Within 6 months, my new clients helped me outgrow that space, and by the end of the first year, I was able to move to a larger location to accommodate my growing client numbers and provide more openings. And the ball just kept rolling until we landed here at our newest, biggest, brightest, and, quite frankly, my dream office.
✨️I wouldn't be here if I didn't have the help and support of so many people along the way. My amazing family and friends for all the support they've given to myself and my family in so many ways.The other business owners who provide copious amounts of mentoring along the way and collaboration opportunities.
✨️ To my wonderful, loyal clients, of course, I owe the biggest thanks. Some of you have been with me literally since the beginning, thru all the moves and the name changes. 🤣
✨️Without you, there literally wouldn't be LuAnn's Boutique, and I'm thankful beyond words.
