I started Full Circle Bakes back in 2019 at 22, a year after a serious mental health crisis, hoping it would bring purpose and meaning back into my life. And my god, it did that and then some. For years, I had the privilege of doing something I was deeply passionate about, working alongside incredible people—many of whom I now consider close friends. I went from a place of despair to being part of the most wonderful community of supporters, both online and in person. The kind of community you’d never expect for a bakery, and for that, I am truly thankful.
But with the highest of highs come the lowest of lows, and that’s where I’ve found myself for some time now. I really hoped that taking a few months off would be enough to reset myself, but unfortunately, it wasn’t. A few weeks ago, things came to a head, and I’ve had to seriously consider what’s best for my long-term health and happiness. The conclusion I’ve come to, is that my body simply can no longer handle the stress of running a business, both mentally and physically.
Though this decision truly pains me, I know in my heart it’s the right one. To every single person who has supported me and my little dream over the last five years—from employees to suppliers, customers, friends, family, and everyone in between—thank you. Your support means more to me than I’ll ever be able to fully express.
With love,
