What I love about For The Small is that I get to meet so many people that I would otherwise never have crossed paths with. Every entrepreneur is inspired by their own story and some are so, so special. Meet Melissa, the mompreneur behind josiah+co. She makes non-slip crochet baby booties. Each item is handcrafted with Heaven Babies in mind as a way to honour our babies gone too soon.
Why did you start your business/brand?
After experiencing three consecutive miscarriages, I wanted an outlet for my grief. I had learned how to crochet baby booties after our Rainbow Baby was born, so I decided to turn it into a business and a way to connect with and bless other women who have experienced pregnancy loss.
What’s the biggest challenge of running a small business? (We know it’s not that glamorous behind the screen!!)
It would definitely be organizing my time effectively and making sure my family comes first.
What personality trait always gets you into trouble?
My stubbornness!!!
