What are you most looking forward to this month?

It's June! It's the unofficial start to summer here in Nova Scotia! We're so excited about this summer. The lupins are up and the weather has been amazing!

Do you go into summer with intentions and plans or do you like to just play it all by ear?
We're SO excited about this summer and want to make it a "summer to remember". Totally stole that from our IG friends @keepyourdaydream 👊

Our first big plans start this month with our first trip in the new RV! 🚌

Big moment I wanted to share with you. 🍾 Do you

Big moment I wanted to share with you. 🍾
Do you know the magazines Where Women Create and What Women Create? I bet many of you do!
They have been my fav magazines for many years!

As a matter of fact, very. few magazines made the "downsizing" cut when we moved, but my stash of Create Magazines did!

I had the privilege and pleasure to interview the founder and editor Jo Packham on my business podcast, the Creative Shop Talk podcast and I thought you may enjoy listening to our conversation.

We are also giving away a year's subscription to What Women Create via my IG page wendybatten.biz if you'd like to enter.

You can listen to the Creative Shop Talk podcast episode 106 on your fav podcast app or on my website wendybatten.com/106

Love to know your takeaways from this episode! Enjoy

I have dreams of a road trip to visit all my shop owners on a retailers roadtrip! 🙌

Do you RV? I need all the advice I can get. Not even sure I like this idea, but we're going to give it a go!

But first - she needs cleaning and some "freshening up". a retailer's road trip! 🙌?le #RegencyTripleE #getoutside #rvreno
