Mornings with Mayesh: Wellness Through Flowers
Earlier this week, Jelena Trifunovic of Viola Floral came to share her flower story with us. Jelena talks about how she ended up starting a business named after her mother, dives into how transitioning from teacher to florist went, how flowers were instrumental in her own healing, along with sharing about her passion for helping others understand the power of flowers and their positive effects on mental health. This is definitely a feel-good episode that reminds us all of why we love the floral industry and the part we play in spreading joy through flowers!
Below are the podcast, video replay, and show notes:
