Embracing New Opportunities: A Soapmaker’s Journey

Alright, y’all, listen, I had to get back about the bed because I have opportunity, an opportunity tomorrow. And I realize that I have taken all other samples. And when I tell you I’m here fighting with these bags tonight is I should be in the shower, in the bed.

Procrastination is a thing. I don’t know if I can’t exactly call it procrastination. I’m actually doing it ahead of time cuz I only heard about it today. But sometimes they say you stay ready, you never have to get ready. So I’m just gonna do a quick 20 of these and make them available.

Cuz, you know, there’s a big old debate of something going on, Anna. Of course, we know what it is, but there’s a watch party. And where there’s a watch party, the samples can go. So I am just in here. I was trying to go live, but apparently I don’t feel like upgrading my phone. And so I have reached the outer limits of an iPhone and I gotta go figure out what the Helio it’s going on and why I am not why it is not updated and all this other good stuff. You know, I mean, feel like I’m tired and you know, tonight was going my night off if he was on me last night, we did an epic live last night clearing the order queue. And so I am just in here making some soap and body butter samples.

I’m Yolanda. If I hit that for you page, hit that follow button. I’m Yolanda. I do make handmade bath and shower. So it’s lots of live content and we talk about a number of everything. And so what I did was I took some of my bars, I just kind of cut them down into this little quarter bars or eighth of a bar, that’s eighth. And this is a quarter and then there’s half. And so I’m just gonna make some of these.

I love networking and I’m trying to get back out. I’m trying to take this, the soaps into spaces I used to be in when I did a few media things and blogging and influencer things and all of that. So that’s just something I haven’t done. And of course, you know, the summer is here.

There’s all kind of opportunities. I’ll be out at a couple pop UPS this weekend, even though I’m not doing vendor events per se this year, I will be out there a couple open houses. We’re gonna go out doing more promotion than vendor events. When you go for vendor events, you got it. You know, you don’t get a chance to always read the room, you know, out of time, get returned on an investment. So we’re gonna go promotional this year.

And of course, you know, four years in, this is year start, this is year five. Oh, I think we give us a try. We’ve given everything else to try. We’ve done very well now, mind you. But it’s just that vendor events for me this year is just a little too physical for the gruel and the grind that I have been on, and that is creating best shower. So as household hustle name. And so we’re gonna try something different. We’re gonna do a little bit more promotions. We’re gonna do a little bit more networking and get back into that on that side of the spear. And it’s actually working out. So I’m excited about it. You guys go ahead and have yourselves a good night and I will see y’all 5 Friday. 5 sucks. Friday is just a couple days away and we got no new release this week. That’s next week for those y’all that are waiting on that. What was the one we did are July. If you’re waiting on the July, it is a lemon pound cake scent. What, you know, we do a little something extra with the colors and all that kind of swirls and all that kind of good stuff. So if you’re waiting on that, one more week for that one. But listen, this right here, Orange Paradise, is absolutely awesome and amazing. And it has a body butter to match.

And am I finished? Oh, Lord, that’s some more fun to hear. I’ve got a couple more to do. So these are gonna be, this is gonna be nice. I’m gonna put them on the signing table at this viewing party of the, quote unquote, presidential debate.

So what I wanna do here, didn’t absolutely finish my cut. I only know what I did with. Why is life doing me this way? Look at that. I just drop one. So like I said, I just did 1/8 of a cut. We cut ourselves to four and a/2 to 5 ounces, depending on which soap it is. So I’m just took one cut and a half cut that nab and I ended up with my little eighth cut. And that’s enough for you to get. I’m here in a couple of showers or just go lather up with it to see if you like it. And again, just cutting some samples here and let me know what you think if you see me out and about.

All you gotta do is say you got no samples with you and I, I for the most part, I will. And even if I don’t have a sample, I may have, and you may, hey, push it up. I may have a whole bar. And listen, if you have never, like I said, if I hit that for you page and you hit that follow button and you feel like you would like to try best shower. So we do. Your first bar is free. You know that, right? Your first bar is on me. Just put in a free soap in the checkout and then just pay the shipping and I will send you a free bird. Just pick whichever soap you like to try. If you wanna try the sensitivity soaps or if you wanna try the seasonal soaps, which is of course amazing colors and swirls, and you want to take an exploration, pick one of those and just let me know. And you could also use that, apply that to a body butter to if you wanna get a discount on that, maybe you wanna try that. Like I said, pick which light, use cold free soap. It’ll give you an amount of.

And then all you have to do. I think I’m dying out. Are you have to do it? Is it Walmart? No, I think I’m good. All you have to do is pay the shipping. All right.

But again, hit that for you page, hit that follow button. Come on, hang out with me this weekend. I’ll be making some soap. I know I got networking, I got wedding, I got pop up somewhere in there. I’m gonna be back in here making some soap. But the question of the day is always, did you shower today? And can I lather you up? Bye.
