We had the good fortune of connecting with Esmeralda Fiscal and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Esmeralda, can you walk us through the thought-process of starting your business?
My Husband started his own business 6 years ago. I’ve watched him grow tremendously since then .Neither of us come from financial stability but we always knew we wanted more for our family. It always gave me hope that if he could do it then so could I. It honestly started out as a hobby. But shortly after I hired a business coach and she saw in me what I hadn’t at that moment. It couldn’t have came at a better time because we have kids in school and I needed to be home full time. That’s when I decided to turn my “crafty hobby” into my fulltime business. And by the grace of God it has been almost 2 years and it is still the best decision I could’ve made for myself and my family.

Alright, so let’s move onto what keeps you busy professionally?
I am most proud of how far I’ve come in the short time I’ve made this a fulltime career. I literally started by making leather earrings but quickly went to tshirts, canvases and so much more which led me to my true passion of working with wood & creating front porch decor. I’ve since then made wood door rounds, bow holders, scrunchie holders, coffee mug holders and door mats. It hasn’t always been the easiest. Learning new things takes lots of patience and mistakes. It’s that much rewarding when you see the final product though and know YOU created the piece with your own two hands.
I want every woman who has ever questioned herself to know that you are capable. Get up, do your research, work hard and never give up. Life and business will always have it’s obstacles but do not ever let that stop that dream inside of you.
