Summer Solstice, Elderflowers, and a Lesson in Slow Business 🌿

Every year on the solstice evening I take my dog, Jack for a walk specifically to collect elderflowers on this longest day.

It truly was a gorgeous evening for a walk, and picked enough elderflowers for a batch of elderflower wine. I'm already imagining sitting by the fire in winter remembering exactly how that walk felt.

It struck me just how much that ritual mirrors how I want to build my business too — slow, seasonal, rooted in something real rather than rushed for the sake of speed.

The wine won't be ready for months, but the waiting is part of the magic. Sometimes the best things really do need time to become what they're meant to be.

What's something in your life or business right now that you're letting take its own time? 🩵
