Five years of Better Together, and I’m so grateful for every person who has been part of it! 💗

Hearing everyone share what this event and our relationships mean to them brought tears to my eyes. Your kind words mean the world to me.

Watching Better Together grow over the past five years and seeing the friendships and relationships that have come from it has been so special.

To my clients, friends, fellow business owners, and everyone who continues to support this event, thank you. I love seeing people come together, support one another, and build lasting friendships.

I’m so fortunate to do what I love alongside people I genuinely care about. Thank you for making our fifth year so special. I love you all! 💗

THE SUNK COSTS HAD TO GO 🛥️

there’s something so special about being tucked away with a room full of women who get you, hear you, and cheer you on. 🥹

we made space to pause with our amazing breathwork facilitator, @aleksandrakatherinec @thedetoxhouse 🧘🏻‍♀️

we opened swag from some lovely Nashville brands, shared a beautiful lunch sponsored by @financialconceptsms and prepared by @chefbotanique

and we tossed our sunk costs overboard (on dissolvable paper, so no wildlife was harmed) 🦆

but what i’ll remember most is the feeling of it all.

the warmth.
the laughter. so much laughter!
the way these women showed up for each other so openly.

being a founder can feel lonely, even when things are going well.

getting to spend a day with women who understand the beautiful, messy, ambitious life we’re building is something I’ll never take for granted.

to our yachties, I love getting to create these little pockets of magic with you. 🥹💚
MORE OF THIS, PLEASE!

Artistic problem meets creative solution!!!

I tried to find small batch gift bags that aligned with Mamie&Becky but was coming up not quite satisfied. There are many pretty options available but none felt like me. I wanted each customer to know the love and care that goes into each jewelry detail with a continued experience after their purchase.

Enter a hmmmm thought! I am an illustrator and decided what better way to exemplify the M&B experience than by combining my love of jewelry with my “doodles.” VIOLA’ … The new limited edition M&B bags were created. One free with purchase. Each symbolizes a personality, a thought or a vibe. Inspiration is derived from the women in day to day life; known and unknown. Drop in and see which speaks to your style.

Exclusively @studioedisonjax and @cwmakeup where full color art prints are available, too. Bag availability limited until they last and the next batch is released🤩😘✨💋

Happy Sparkles

the most valuable part of our retreat wasn’t on anyone’s agenda ...

Nashville said “plot twist,” and we said “do you know who you’re dealing with?” 🌧️😆

a storm rolled through right before our October retreat day, so we had to switch things up a little.

but honestly? it was just a physical reminder of the metaphorical pivots we constantly battle as founders and entrepreneurs.

once it was clear everyone could arrive safely, we said game on, and i’m so glad we did. we had ample time to dive into each other’s year end goals.

we identified what we could let go of to make space for more of what mattered. there’s nothing a yachtie loves more than tossing her sunk costs overboard once she realizes they are holding her back.

plus, we gathered for a cozy dock picnic sponsored by @financialconceptsms and prepared by @chefbotanique. is there anything better than a deconstructed s’more under a blanket with 9 biz besties by your side?

these are the moments that remind me why being in a room with heart-centered, ambitious women matters so much.

what i’m not ready to share but will one day is a few of the other curveballs this day threw me.

but let these beautiful images of a perfectly imperfect day be proof that sometimes the unexpected days end up being the ones you cherish the most.

Come help us celebrate the women behind the businesses. The friendships behind the faces. The community that brings is together. Better Together celebrates the connections we’ve built at Transformations. Every vendor is a familiar face with a business and a story we are proud to support!

A little rain, a moody sky, and a whole lot of good energy @yachtclubmastermind . ☔️ 🛥️ Yesterday was a reminder that it’s not always about the setting, but the people you’re surrounded by. A day filled with learning, meaningful conversations, big ideas, and time together with an amazing group of my fave entrepreneurs. 💗

We made the most of every moment, toasted to our next big milestones and wrapped it all up with caviar and champs. 🥂✨

Because sometimes the best days don’t go as planned, and that’s what makes them memorable. 🤍

That’s right... we’re not like other studios. 💅🏻

We got you covered on hair and makeup! No more stressing the night before, staying up late doing your own trial makeup. We’ve got @cwmakeup for that. 😉

Carrie will make you feel as stunning on the outside as you are on the inside, so just bring yourself, your confidence, and that thousand watt smile!

Book a shoot with us through the link in my bio, and we’ll handle the rest!

How far should you be from your mirror when applying makeup? Carrie Wilson joined us for the Beauty Breakdown and she says it's not as close as you think.
