In the Studio: A Glimpse of Our Creative Sanctuary

We are back from our annual Holly Lane retreat and ready to go with new ideas and fresh perspectives for the new year! This year the team travelled back to Kill Devil Hills, NC for the second year in a row after having such a wonderful, relaxing time last year. Our AirBnB on the ocean was the perfect place to reflect on the last year and make plans for 2025. We talked about slowing down and being intentional about the work we’ve committed to tackle. Each team member received the book Holy Hygge by Jamie Erickson which talks about creating a warm, inviting space in the home in which to welcome others and share Christ. This is the environment we aim to create in the workplace too as we slow down, cozy up, speak kindly and work intentionally. 

For fun we sat together and experimented with water color, trying something new and creative and it turns out we have a very talented team! We also visited an escape room this trip and had a great time team building as we solved puzzles together and broke out of the room just in time! (or maybe just a few seconds later, lol)

At the end of it all, I couldn’t help but feel so very blessed by my remarkable, hard working team that is a gift to me every day. I love spending time with this crew and will be excited to see where next year takes us!
