In this episode, Chantal and Dion reflect on their love for celebrations and how it drives their business, while also addressing the fears and risks associated with growth and investment. While they reflect on the joy they find in celebrating special moments with clients, we also talk about the importance of community support, especially among small business owners. I think you'll especially like their take on balancing between professionalism and personal relationships with clients, and how they define what sincerity means to them in their business!

From the owners: "We’re Chantal and Dion, the husband-and-wife duo behind C&D Marquees & Event Rentals in Charlotte, NC. What started with marquee letters has grown to include floral walls, a champagne wall, and our signature Infinity Cascade waterfall backdrop. Alongside raising three children and balancing our careers, we’re building a business rooted in love for helping people celebrate. Being trusted to play a small part in someone’s special memories is what makes this journey so meaningful to us."

Takeaways from the conversation:

  • Balancing family and business is an ongoing challenge, and at the same time is super rewarding at the end of the day

  • Fear of failure is common among entrepreneurs, so you're not alone if you've felt it

  • Building connections with other small businesses helps you stay inspired and passionate
