Hey beautiful souls 👋
I just got to interview the incredible Brittany Whiteneck.
She took a simple kitchen hobby (melting wax, pouring candles, doing the craft fair grind) and turned it into Antique Candle Co., a huge multimillion-dollar company.
Wild, right?
But the story isn't really about success, it's about something deeper.
It's about realizing the thing you created has outgrown your grasp.
Brittany hit this moment where she felt burnt out and buried under responsibilities, realizing the bravest move was actually stepping aside as CEO.
Imagine the courage it takes to let go of your own company to let it thrive.
Brittany stepped back into her creative passion, gave her business new space to breathe, and found peace in handing over control.
If you're feeling stuck or overwhelmed, this might speak to you the way it spoke to me.
Sending love your way.
