lots of new faces around here, so thought I’d share a little about me and my journey 🫶🏻
Hi! I’m Easton👋🏻
in 2019, I welcomed my first baby (Brodi) into the world! Motherhood was so new, but so so sweet!
my maternity leave would be coming to an end soon, and I’d have to return to my job as a restaurant manager/bartender.
I couldn’t imagine leaving my baby, so I was frantically trying to come up with something else!
I began a party planning business. I helped mamas throw a couple kids parties then quickly pivoted. I guess you’d say “niched” down to balloons only in early 2020.
I look back at those times as so so sweet. I became a single mama and me and my son were just balloonin’ all over the town 🎈
About a year later, I met my husband 🥰
fun fact: we eloped in Oregon with some of our close friends! 🗻
2022, (still balloonin’) we welcomed a baby girl into our world, Cedar🩷
2023, (still balloonin’) we welcomed another baby girl into our world, Roam🩷
they’re 14 months apart and it’s so so sweet, but def challenging. 🙈
I will say balancing the business and motherhood has been a challenge. There have been seasons that I didn’t think I could handle it all. I almost threw in the towel a few times. My postpartum brain was foggy and I was struggling hearing the Lord’s voice through it all.
but I can say now, He’s given me a deeper and newer love of the business! Truly it is only by His grace, that I’m here and even partly able to do it all. (Matt. 19:26)
through the years of training employees and helping others in their businesses, I learned I LOVE teaching business specifically balloon business! so I have added mentorship, business tools, and so much more to my biz!!
let’s end this with 5 truths and 1 lie. And y’all make your guess (which is the lie) in the comments. I’ll choose one winner at the end of the day to receive a coffee on me🫶🏻
1. My first job was a tire shop
2. I have a business degree
3. I have ridden in a hot air balloon
4. I can write upside down very fast
5. When I grew up I wanted to be a teacher
6. I have won awards for video editing
THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE 🫶🏻✨
