The Diary of a Florist
A floristry podcast that offers guidance, education and inspiration about running a floristry business. Sharing real life experiences that I have encountered over the years and how I have learned from my mistakes. I think it is important to keep things real as after all being a florist really isn’t just ’playing with pretty flowers’ I hope you will come along with me for the ride.
