"I call myself the omakase florist" ๐ŸŒธ

Unlike traditional florists who simply take your order, she approaches every arrangement like a chef crafting an omakase experience.

She asks deep questions: What color does your wife like? What kind of character is she? What's the story behind this gift?

Some clients are surprised by how many questions she asks, but there's a method to it. While they're talking, she's already visualizing the perfect arrangement in her mind.

It's not about selling flowers, it's about understanding the person who will receive them and creating something truly personal ๐Ÿ’

Her full explanation of this visualization process? Absolutely worth your time. Link in comments below ๐Ÿ‘‡

"I never went to classes, my clients were my teachers" ๐ŸŒธ

This florist built her business through pure experimentation. No formal training, no rigid rules, just real customers who trusted her enough to be "guinea pigs" for her early work.

She admits the bouquets didn't look good at first, but through that trial-and-error process, she discovered something powerful: her natural sense of creativity wasn't in following traditional arrangements, but in abstract, free-flow floral design.

Sometimes the best way to learn isn't in a classroom ๐Ÿ’

He heard they didnโ€™t quite like him.
Maybe he didnโ€™t โ€œfitโ€ the image they had in mind.

Sometimes, thatโ€™s the real win. ๐ŸŒป

And now sheโ€™s applying the same logic to her company, making work feel like play. ๐Ÿ’ก

๐Ÿ’” A sonโ€™s story you wonโ€™t forget.

He met his father for the first time at 24, after decades apart.
No drama, no anger, just the quiet weight of time lost.

Some stories remind us how fragile connection can beโ€ฆ and how powerful it is to hold onto it while we can. ๐Ÿ’ญ

But thatโ€™s where Sabrina learned something powerful, every process can be improved.

Fewer steps. Less repetition.
That obsession with efficiency pulled her into tech, esports, and now AI.

Automation saves time.
AI gives it meaning. ๐Ÿ’ก
