Balancing Work and Family as a Mompreneur
In this podcast, we are talking with Katie McDonough of Petal and Print. She is a Team Flower member, a wife, a business owner, and a full-time mother of two precious tots - Afton & Tippett. We are chatting about the importance of family and the significance of including each household member in the flower experiences that make your heart flutter.
Katie is talking with us the joys and hardships of owning a business while having small children and recounts some of her favorite memories of her children with flowers. She's even sharing a few ideas (for all you flower-moms out there) on how to incorporate your own families into your flower-saturated world! Join us for this heart-warming episode of laughter and real-life mom talk.
Katie is the owner of Petal and Print - a dual stationery & floral design business. She lives in a log house in rural Pennsylvania and stays home with her kids full-time. She runs her small but successful company from her studio in the corner of her garage and grows as many of her own flowers and greens as possible. She is a member of Slow Flowers and sources from local farms as well as national growers and wholesalers on occasion, always with a preference for American grown blooms.
Katie's floral designs are loose, garden inspired and sophisticated. She works with lush blooms, interesting foliages, herbs, fruits, vegetables, and wild foraged vines. She enjoys mixing colors, scents, and textures to create designs that are beautiful without being complicated, and she lives for the seasons, for what is the freshest this moment, and for the simple magic of nature.
