Description

During her childhood, Teresa Rinne had discovered dozens of dried flowers tucked away in the family Bible, while visiting her great-grandmother in Kentucky. As the older woman helped return the flowers to their home, she explained that each dried flower had a special memory attached to it. When she passed, she took those memories with her. Through trial and error, Teresa developed an at-home process for preserving fresh flowers—and their memories.

Teresa is the company founder and CEO of Floral Preservation Co. Her company aims to provide a quick and easy process to preserve flowers. The patent-pending kit involves microwaving the flowers, then sealing them with a spray. This preserves the flowers and retains the vibrant colors than pressing them in a book. At Floral Preservation Co, it's more than preserving flowers. It's about preserving memories for years to come.

Jill Devine was eager to have Teresa on the podcast because Jill has two distinct memories involving flowers and she wished she knew about Teresa’s kit before getting rid of the flowers.

Jill would like to acknowledge and recognize the hard work moms put in on the daily. It can be a thankless job at times, and Jill wants these moms to know their worth, so she created the Supermom Shoutout. This week’s Supermom Shoutout goes to Kelly of St. Louis, MO! Her sister-in-law, Jill, nominated her and said:

Not only is she a super mom to her two kids, but she’s a super mom to all her dance studio dancers too. She’s had to manage running her small business and keeping her dance family safe too. She adjusted by having outdoor classes and of course virtual classes. Even with no recitals and limited competitions she tried to plan things to make her dancers still have a time to shine. She teaches them about their bodies and life lessons and not just dance.

She has instilled a sense of responsibility and empathy in her own kids that makes me proud to be related to them. Kelly balances education, activities, and service in her kid’s day to day lives. I think she has done a fantastic job in these circumstances to keep her family healthy yet find ways to get them active and engaged in the world.

Kelly – YOU are seen and YOU are supported!
