As we step into the latter part of 2024, it’s the perfect time to reflect not only on the present but also on the milestones that brought us here. In the sixth installment of our anniversary series, we’re taking a look back at 2022—a year that reinforced the importance of persistence, mindful growth, and the power of community.
For The Inspiration Company, 2022 was a year of expansion, both in presence and purpose. But just as we doubled our physical reach, it’s important for each of us to consider how we can expand our personal growth. Whether that’s pursuing new goals, nurturing relationships, or developing mindfulness, the lessons from our journey can inspire your own.
Doubling Our Reach, Strengthening Our Roots
In 2022, we grew from 24 to 40 stores, adding locations in new states like Maryland, Georgia, Texas, Alabama, and more. Our growth wasn’t just about numbers or locations—it was about deepening our commitment to spreading inspiration and positivity. We set down even stronger roots by opening our first corporate office in Fort Lauderdale, a home base that allows us to continue growing in both vision and reach.
For you, think of your own journey. Have you been doubling down on your dreams? Expansion doesn’t always mean big, bold moves—it can be as simple as embracing a new habit or mindset that opens you up to new possibilities. By strengthening your foundation, you prepare yourself for the opportunities that lie ahead.
A Milestone in Sales & Cheer
2022 also marked an incredible achievement for us: selling over half a million bracelets. Every bracelet we send out carries a message of hope, love, and empowerment—a reminder that inspiration can be shared in the smallest of ways. As an added highlight, we were honored to be featured in Oprah’s Favorite Things gift guide, a moment of holiday cheer that spread the power of inspiration even further.
As you reflect on your own milestones, don’t forget to celebrate how far you’ve come, no matter how big or small those moments seem. Every step forward counts toward your personal growth, just as every bracelet sold brings a little more light into the world.
Moving Forward Mindfully
Looking back at 2022, we realize that our success was built not only on expansion but on mindfulness—staying present and focused on the values that guide us. As we continue our journey, we’re reminded that growth isn’t just about reaching new heights; it’s about staying grounded in what matters most.
For you, mindful growth means taking the time to reflect on your values and your progress. Whether you’re celebrating a personal milestone or planning your next step, take a moment to appreciate the journey and stay mindful of what fuels your spirit.
Final Thoughts:
2022 was a year of big growth and deeper connections for us, and we couldn’t have done it without the love and support from you, our Inspiration Nation. As you look ahead to your own path, remember that growth is always possible—with mindfulness, determination, and a little inspiration, you can continue to reach new heights.
