Learning to Let Go: What I learned by Closing my Shop

January 25, 2019 Jazmine Brown

You read that right.

After a long and difficult process, Gabby and I are decided that this would be the year we are quitting our shop @shopsifted. Though it hurts to say goodbye to our little business baby, we know it is for the best.

We decided to just give a little explanation and about why we are closing and discuss somethings we have learned along the way:

@shopsifted, thank you for being so good to us and the community we have been able to share.

Have you ever ended a business before?

“The average American makes 4.4 pounds of trash per day. But who wants to be average?”- @packagefreeshop ✨🦋 I received this lil’ package full of some awesome #zerowaste goodies, but also received a lil’ reminder that even packaging shouldn’t immediately be seen as trash. 
It’s best to look at things like this and remember to try to divert waste wherever I can. For me that will look like reusing this box for a present for a friend. 
Each of us can try to find creative ways to prevent everyday items from becoming waste or generating more waste in the first place. 
But with all that said I ALWAYS want to emphasize that no one is perfect and every step you take is a huge win!! So let’s go out the and be #lowwaste conscious together. ✨🕊🌎
An old pic but I’ve noticed some new faces and wanted to say hey 👋🏽✨ (I haven’t done an introduction in a while so here we go) :

My name is Jazmine and I started this blog my freshman year of college (I guess now 4 years!?) It originally was a fashion blog that I used as a creative outlet. But after a year in, I learned about #labortrafficking and #fastfashion and knew I had to change. After a LONG journey and deep reflection/research, I’ve transitioned into becoming a sustainable fashion AND lifestyle blogger. I’m still figuring out things day-by-day and I want to empower others to do the same. We’re all figuring things out. So I’m glad you’re here and I can’t wait to walk out the #environmentaljustice journey together 🦋

P.S. I also deeply enjoy thrifting, learning about nature,talking about the enneagram, and watching BBC. I swear I do other things too hahah🤓
I’ve been a bit obsessed with these post-rain clouds 🌥 Here are a few of my faves 🕊🦢
