Six years later, I’m standing in places I once only prayed to be. 🥹🩷
This milestone feels a little different.
We’ve been part of different retail spaces over the years, but opening our newest location at Tanger Outlets in Texas City was a leap of faith. Texas City isn’t exactly down the street, and we’re basically starting from scratch in a whole new community. But seeing Cuddles reach different cities, meet new faces, and spoil even more pups has been so rewarding. Community means everything to us!
And to think we’re also celebrating SIX YEARS of Cuddles this month. 🥹
Six years of hard work, sacrifices, MANY tears, sleepless nights, moments of doubt, and so many beautiful memories.
This year especially has pushed me to grow in ways I never expected. After my surgery, I went straight into grind mode. I knew if I wanted Cuddles to grow, things had to change. Building a team, learning to let go, and trusting others with something I’ve poured my heart into was honestly scary.
Creating our Pupcake Bar was another huge turning point. What started as a little idea has blossomed into private event bookings, new opportunities, and even inspiring other bakers, which is so awesome to see! It gave me the confidence to keep taking chances on myself and my business.
Even after six years, I still question myself. Can I handle more? Am I doing enough? But then I look at how far we’ve come, and I’m reminded why I started.
I’ve dedicated the last six years to spoiling your furbabies, and I genuinely LOVE what I do. Some of you started as customers and became friends, and I’ve met so many incredible people along the way.
I thank God for bringing Cuddles into my life. For every opportunity, every lesson, and even the difficult seasons that have shaped me into who I am today. This business has helped me grow not only as a business owner, but as a person, a boss, a leader, and most importantly, in the way I believe in myself.
To everyone who has supported Cuddles over the last six years, THANK YOU. I truly can’t express how grateful I am that you continue to choose us to spoil your babies.
Six years later, and I still feel like we’re just getting started. 🩷🐾
