This week Beth is joined by Pam Christian to discuss mindset and changing our realities as a result. Pam has suffered devastating loss, trauma, and has dealt with countless struggles in her life and is proud to say, “I crawled out.” Now, she helps others stand up and move into a new light. She’s found clarity through self-exploration, self-examination, meditation, time alone with herself, as well as many other modalities.
info_outlineBeth chats with Kelly Carroll Burgin of K. Carroll Accessories, a woman-owned and operated small business, which launched in 2002 as Boutique To U Handbags (BTU). The company started when Kelly was downsized from her corporate job and used the opportunity to do something she had a passion for and to live a more balanced life.
BTU started as a traveling boutique focused on trunk show fundraisers, bringing "the boutique to you." But the company has evolved into so much more. With an expanded product line, an e-commerce site and a wholesale business that spans all 50 states, Kelly changed the business name in 2016 to better reflect the growing business.
Kelly and Beth discuss:
- What it’s like having a product featured on Oprah’s Favorite Things
- Transitioning from working with a business partner to working on her own
- The importance of reinventing yourself/business over and over again
- Why mistakes are both okay and necessary
- Where her entrepreneurial spirit comes from
- Advice for those that want to start their own business
- When to increase investment in your business
K.Carroll Accessories is a certified, women-owned and operated business, which started out in Kelly's garage in 2002. Today, they operate out of a 6,500 square foot warehouse, in Auburn Hills, Michigan, working with 100 of the best wholesale gift reps across the United States and Canada, and showing lines in 6 different showrooms. The company is committed to offering quality, hand sewn products, with outstanding service.
