Episode Synopsis

How ADHD, Grit, And Faith Built A Boutique Pillow Brand From A BasementIf you’ve ever tried to build something beautiful between school drop-off and dinner, this conversation will feel like a deep breath. Kelly sits down with Bree—mom of four, dental assistant two days a week, and cofounder of a boutique pillow brand with her mom—to unpack how faith, ADHD, and clear boundaries can turn a basement sewing room into a business with real traction. From the early days of art shows in the rain to a decisive pivot toward e‑commerce, she shares the choices that kept her products accessible without sacrificing quality, and the systems that protect family time while still shipping orders.We dig into the craft: sourcing designer textiles, choosing inserts from a small US maker, and pricing for value over volume. We explore design trends, what actually sells versus what looks stunning on a table, and how to pair patterns for homes that aren’t matchy but still feel cohesive. The conversation also moves through the personal—blended family dynamics, making space for one-on-one moments with kids, and building confidence after a major health transformation. Her ADHD becomes a strength with the right rails: defined work blocks, realistic timelines, and the courage to say no so the right yes has room.Underneath it all is a steady thread of faith and partnership. A semi-retired dentist gives her flexible hours. Her husband, a measured risk-taker, quietly finds the website developer. Her mom, sewing from Texas, mirrors production and brings joy to the process. Together they’re moving toward weekly product drops, better photography, and a website built for discovery. You’ll leave with practical insights on boundaries, pricing, SEO needs for small shops, and the reminder that your gifts aren’t meant to sit in a drawer.
