I almost missed these events. 🩹
Two days before our Gala Dinner event in New York, I accidentally cut my middle finger deeply while opening a can.
I cried.
Not because of the pain, but because I thought I would miss the events we had scheduled that week.
As a small business owner, every event matters. Every box, every order, every opportunity counts.
The photo on the left was taken during our PIDCI event this weekend.
The photo on the right was taken after the accident.
My finger is still swollen today.
But I showed up anyway.
And somehow, despite all the worries, we still sold out.
Sometimes, the moments people celebrate are also the moments that almost didn’t happen. 🤍
