Such an important message from our favorite jam babe! 🤍

Community will always be better than competition and imitation! Let’s grow together rather than trying to stomp on others🤍

Some say imitation is the highest form of flattery… and while I understand that, I don’t fully agree.

You can absolutely be inspired by others and still create something that reflects your own style, your own story, your own work. That’s how growth happens.

But there’s a difference between inspiration and imitation.

Blatantly copying someone’s hard work, their ideas, their signature offerings… that’s not flattery. That’s a lack of respect.

As a small business owner, there are things I choose not to make simply because they are someone else’s signature. If I don’t offer it, I will gladly point you to someone local who does. That’s what community looks like.

Not giving credit where it’s due is one of the quickest ways to lose respect in a small business community like ours. And without respect, support doesn’t last.

We build each other up here. We collaborate. We support. We do not undercut or block one another out.

Just a gentle reminder to be mindful of the people who have helped you along the way, especially those who went out on a limb to do so.

All my love,
Michele
