Spring Fever

Posted by
Petra Geiger. Owner & Founder Beehive Co-op

I don't know what to write about...except that I want spring to happen so badly! You know warmer weather, sun, blossoms, possibilities and new ideas! Corny I know, but mentally I'm craving it! The winter for me has been about adjusting to a new life and all the ups and downs that comes with that whole experience. It's challenging mentally to stay on your game and feel fresh and excited by life when you feel confused and slightly unsure of your place. And when it's dreary and cold... forget about it!

I'm ready for a new store here in NY. I have really been missing my Beehive friends and support group. What an amazing collection of people, I really had no idea how great I had it until I moved away. I'm jealous of Viviana! Working day in and day out in my home office isn't cutting it for me. So in a nutshell, I need spring! I need to rally and open a store up here and get inspired by a whole new group of amazing designers! So here's to spring and lots of exciting new endeavors!

Hi Petra! I first read about you and Beehive in an entrepeneur magazine while taking a break from holiday shopping at a bookstore. This was back in December, and I have been thinking about it ever since! My job as a charitable fund development officer was eliminated in July last year due to inevitable financial cutbacks and I've been enjoying a sabbatical of sorts since then - and also making and selling more and more jewelry! I've thought about trying to get in touch with you, and just haven't worked up the courage to actually state out loud that your franchise opportunity in interesting to me! It feels a little scarey. You have inspired an entrepeneur spirit in me, Petra, and I'd love to chat sometime if you ever have an opportunity!
Warm regards,
Julie
