“Transmutation:
• Grapes must be crushed to make wine
• Diamonds form under pressure
• Olives are pressed to release oil
• Seeds grow in darkness
Whenever you feel crushed, under pressure, pressed, or in darkness, you’re in a powerful place of transformation/transmutation.” ― Lalah Delia
Love this quote as it reminds me to trust in the process. 💖 Things don’t always come as easy as you think! 😅 A little backstory to how I came about deciding on my business name and logo…
I originally liked the word ‘Copacetic’ as a name for my business. 👌🏻 This word I’d learnt from watching The Wire meaning “Very satisfactory, or in excellent order”… I just loved how it rolled off the tongue. However, it wasn’t available to register as a domain or business name, so I ended up using ‘Its Copacetic’. Two weeks after deliberating over my logo and name, I was ready to give up before I’d even started anything because I felt discouraged and displeased with it. 🥺 I sat there staring at my desk full of random cut outs and posters, where I kept staring at this card I received from an order from my favourite cruelty free make-up brand Colourpop Cosmetics.
I figured, I love sushi (and all things food), I liked the idea of a logo that took a bit of my personality into the business… 🍣🍙🍱 I liked the idea of ‘…Roll …It …Out?’… That’s where it came to life! 💙All thanks to a little card!
Isn’t it funny how the little things inspire us? 🥰 But its what makes it YOUR business! 🙌🏻 Any other small business owners out there with a backstory to their business? Please do share!
