In the heart of Muskoka, home to some of Canada’s finest nature & cottage escapes, there lies a town called Bracebridge.

It’s a place you can come to create, to taste & to truly live. There’s nothing quite like it.

Which is why I’m so excited to bring you a special 6 episode series in partnership with this magical little town.

I’ll be sitting down with local shop owners, restaurateurs, visionary entrepreneurs, artists … & above all… kind hearted individuals who love sharing a little piece of the town they live in.

Bracebridge, Ontario is the perfect place to escape for adventure, for relaxation & to live out your OWN most visionary life.

Be sure to stay in the loop with what’s going on at @visitthebridge on Instagram.

Let’s get to know today’s guest, Krystal Darling!

She is a Mama, a kick-ass entrepreneur of not 1 but 2 businesses, and she’s a lover of all things fashion - like seriously, her style is amazing and I wish I had her wardrobe. 

I first connected with Krystal while searching for my dream wedding dress - a quest that took me all the way to Bracebridge Ontario, since I knew her shop had the exact dress that I was searching for. It was so serendipitous & it just so happened, Dave and I had chosen a wedding venue just a few minutes away from the shop, as well. 

My experience working with Krystal was nothing short of amazing. She made the whole experience super comfortable and enjoyable - especially for someone like me, who barely ever gets out of her lululemons and tank tops.

With an eye for unique and beautiful pieces -  owning two boutique businesses is not just Krystal’s job, it's her passion. 

She also owns a shop called Belle's Boutique, which is a carefully curated clothing shop that offers an array of exclusive fashion brands for women. 

Also, might I point out that Krystal and I recorded this just days before she gave birth to her 2nd baby boy, Watson. Congrats, Krystal!

In this episode, we chat about…

  • How she’s been able to build something so much greater than just a retail store

  • The challenges she faced in starting a clothing business in a small & seasonal town

  • Why she decided to launch her second business, Darling Bridal Boutique in addition to owning & running Belle’s Boutique

  • Importance of partnerships, collaboration  & getting involved in your community

  • & so much more
