Hi! I’m Lia - the owner of Dahlia. Dahlia is a stationery company specializing in memory keeping kits. I launched it late last year but have been working on the stuff behind the scenes for more than 2.5 years now!
Here’s a little bit about me…
🖤 I realized a couple years ago that I’ve always been an entrepreneur at heart
🤓 I worked as a school teacher for about 10 years - I have a math degree so I taught that and English
🎹 I’ve been working since I was 10 and self-employed since I started tutoring and teaching piano at 17
💁🏻♀️ I’ve sold bridal jewellery and had an Etsy sticker shop in the past. I also worked at a non-profit
🥰 I’m 36, have 3 kids including twins and a son with special needs & my husband and I have been together for 16 years
🏹 I’m a Sagittarius and love astrology (if the full moon can make people wild, don’t tell me astrology isn’t real! 😂)
🎧 Podcasts > TV !! My go-tos are @armchairexppod, @smartless and Unraveled.
🧳 I love to travel and before we had kids, Nate and I were always going somewhere. I LOVE Las Vegas or a historic bed and breakfast lol
🎶 Music lives in my soul! I grew up playing piano and flute and sang in the choir my whole life. Unfortunately though, I’ve always had insane performance anxiety!
🍯 I live on a small hobby blackberry and lavender farm and this summer we’re looking forward to getting bees to hopefully produce berry-lavender honey
✍️ The idea for the journal capsule came to me one night when I was sitting on my couch. The whole idea just sort of popped into my mind and I wrote down every single thing. From there, I curated it to what the journal capsule is today.
❣️I started Dahlia when I realized that to be truly happy, I needed to create something of my own that matched how I wanted to live my life and allowed me to be available for my family.
Thank you for supporting me and being a part of Dahlia’s journey! I am really excited to see where all of this takes us! 💕
Lia
