So it begins. . .

Woah! Here we are.

Welcome to September Virgo!

I feel like I should introduce myself and explain a little about how I got here. . .

My name is Megan (she/her) and, as I’m sure you’ve guessed, I’m a virgo and identify heavily as such. I have a degree in fine arts but in recent years have accepted that I might never be a world renowned artist. Shocking, I know! I still love to create. I’ve dabbled in everything from furniture refurbishing to DIY body care.

Like most of you I’ve spent a lot more time at home the past two years. Self-care, spirituality, and home projects have taken the focus of things I’m making.

I honestly never thought that I would get out of my own way and take the leap to start this business. It’s been a long time coming and in reality, the concept still terrifies me. In July of 2021 I left a really draining 9-5 office job to take a month-long trip to England. The trip itself was incredible, and I have no regrets. I knew it would be life changing and refreshing but, if I’m being honest, I wanted more! I wanted to come home with a clear path and sense of purpose that would remove any doubt of my ability to travel that path. If only life were so easily scripted, right?

While I didn’t come home to a set path, I was in a head space that allowed me to see my dreams could be real. The trip provided this perspective of not wanting to waste such an amazing opportunity and sink back into what I left. It felt, and still feels, like this was a turning point for my life and the only way I could fail is if I didn’t recognize it. So, I started September Virgo, a concept I’d been daydreaming about for years.

Being a Virgo, nothing will ever feel complete or good enough but I’m proud to share the products I’ve made! I’m really optimistic that September Virgo will grow to be something really great by gaining enough traction to become a platform to share other creators from underrepresented entrepreneurs. Thank you for all the love and support! Please bear with me as I navigate through all of the “newness” that comes with this exciting beginning!

All my love,

Megan
