Career x Friendship

We've learned so much. Most of all about collaboration, partnership, how to trust one another and ourselves. Growing and evolving as a creative in a partnership like ours is unique and super special. We've had to rely a lot on each other over the years, and share our knowledge and experiences, both work and personal with one another to get to where we are now. It's an on-going process, and one we're always working on and learning from still.

Learning to separate the friendship from work has been a challenge. Friendship is like any other relationship and needs nurturing, care and time. When things get hectic in the day to day of running a business it's easy to lose sight of each other needs and boundaries to accomplish the task at hand. It's been helpful to practice mindfulness, kindness and check in with each other as much as possible to make sure we are moving forward on a path that is mutually beneficial and creates a safe, positive environment for us both.

Always having a great, trustworthy second opinion to bounce ideas off of, whether it's creative concepts, client questions or what shoes to buy.
