Delaney Kochan – Delaney Darling Florals
About: As a designer, I see my role as being a floral interpreter – learning you and putting your unique soul display with blooms. I want people to feel seen and known, beautiful, inspired, celebrated, and treasured when they see their flowers – because as much as I love flowers, people are my favorite part of this job. Based in downtown Colorado Springs, I provide services for events and workshops in the Front Range and the western slope to help you create a memorable and sacred experience using flowers as the medium
Why I love CO: I love Colorado’s mountain-land. It’s rugged and rebellious and spirited but generous with its beauty and grandeur. I love that Coloradans inhabit the unique attributes of our home.

Bri Bird – Hairdresser & Salon Owner
This really depends on what the challenge is, because some are so much harder to get through than others, but we must maintain the mindset that “This will all work out.” A general idea of what I do when I’m feeling down about life’s pressures: Breathe. Meditate. Yoga. Talk to a dear friend. Find comfort in a daily gratitude practice, focus on the good in your life with intention so you can manifest more of it and take your mind off the negative experience you’re in at that moment. Choose how you feel.
