## Resource

Erin Benzakein started Floret Flower farm in her backyard, spending years killing plants making mistakes, and not mking much money. Fast forward 15 years and she's a New York Times bestselling author, a star on Magnolia Network, and one of the nation's leading farmer-florists... and she's the first to tell you none of it happened overnight. In this conversation, Erin gets real about debt as motivation, the power of saying no to customers, and what to do when you've hit every goal you set and still don't know what comes next.
