As we enter this festive season of Thanksgiving and merriment, I am truly honored to bear the title of a small business owner. Thank you for letting me share part of my life and expertise with you, thank you for entrusting me with part of your life and stories. It is an honor. Learn now how to shop on small businesses with this simple gift guide!

Most of what I share benefits you for free, but some of the links I share, I make a SMALL commission which helps support my family and allows me to keep sharing free content with you. While it doesn’t change anything for you, it makes me do a happy dance. For me, it’s not just about the money (although diapers and food are expensive ), it’s about IMPACT. Whether it’s regaining your energy, feeling confident in your skin or balancing your hormones, this impact matters. 

On this Small Business Saturday, thank you for supporting Flourish, my family, and the small team of women around the country who help make everything you see possible!

One of the greatest, and most unexpected blessings, on this entrepreneurship journey has been connecting with other like-minded women run small businesses.

Supporting these small businesses this season and beyond supports both the women behind the brand but also artisans and makers all over the world.

Holistic Woman’s Gift Guide to Small Business Shops

Flourish | It’s true! Every time you shop small or share my business,  a real live person does a happy dance—ME…and my family! Flourish would not be possible without each of you all, so thank you for being here!

I say no to 95% of the stuff that comes across my desk, so you should know, this is truly the best of the best! By shopping some of my links, it won’t cost you more money or time, but I may receive a commission for sharing with you. Affiliate links help Flourish to keep providing free content and resources for you.

Sanctuaire

Inspired by the French word for sanctuary, Sanctuaire, this lovely home decor shop offers timeless pieces to make your dwelling a calming, happy, and safe place. Each piece is consciously crafted by artisans in the US and around the world.

Pennant Press

Their book Together will make you cry every time you read it! It shares the sweetest message with lovely illustrations to warm your heart. As the book says: “It doesn’t matter what we do, something grand or something small, I know our time together is the greatest gift of all.”

Flourish favorite:  Together

These small batch candles celebrate seasons and daily rituals and encourage you to savor the moment. They use American made soy wax, phthalate-free fragrances and essential oils and cotton wicks for a non toxic burn.

Her prayer and gratitude journals have changed everything for me! I am *not* a journaler, but these simple prompts keep it practical and realistic even when you only have a few minutes. It’s been amazing to watch the miracles and answered prayers unfold. This is truly such a gift of hope!
