What will you do on your pet’s final day? It’s something nobody wants to think about. But it’s something we all face eventually.
And that’s why I’m excited to share this interview with you. I had a lovely conversation with Natalie Venosi about a product she’s created to change saying the final goodbye to our pets from a sad time to a beautiful celebration of life. Natalie told me how family friends in Bali lead her to discover the items that would go on to inspire her to make pet burial shrouds through her brand Sweet Goodbye.
This story this may cause tears, it did for me! But I’m so grateful to have had this conversation and spark a mindset shift for myself – and hopefully for you, too.
Natalie and I had so many questions and business topics to discuss that we didn’t have time for in this interview. However, I still think there’s a big strategy takeaway lesson here. And that is how powerful and impactful your personal story can be. Even if it’s about a topic that you feel like nobody wants to hear about – like our pets dying.
Talking to Natalie opened my mind and my heart to discussing this topic more freely. Are you ready? Enjoy the interview!
