I often have people ask me about the name ... CoopDecor. Here it is in a nutshell...
When I was transitioning from the corporate world to what I am doing now, I was faced with a threefold situation. My degrees are in workforce professional and personal growth. All aspects of business success is ultimately... what? People right? Computers, machinery, etc. yes ... but always people. I have worked helping determine problems and overcoming them. That is one aspect. I also love remodeling homes. I grew up doing it and have continued in one form or fashion ever sense. Lastly, I have always exercised. Not perfectly. Not consistently-consistently. But I do know exercise is fundamental to overall well-being and happiness.
So...
COOP = your body ... where you live personally/internally/24-7
DECOR = the way you feel, think, look, act
COOP = your house/home/your physical space around you
DECOR = the way you design/remodel/take care of the space around you
"Coop" is your home. You should like and love your Coop - yourself... your space.
ALLOW YOUR "COOP" TO HUG YOU!
Which is why my tag line is...
"Decorating Your Coop from the Inside Out..."
Oh... and at the time of CoopDecor's creation... I had a beautiful, big dog named Cooper.
*Decorating Your Coop from the Inside Out
*TMPI for All
*F.A.I.T.H. Fitness for Women
Cooper served as my Workshop Dog for many wonderful, loving, loyal years. I miss his him I miss how my small kids at the time used to lay all over his sweet body without him minding a bit. I miss his big, fat tongue licking my glass front door. We often wondering how such a touch, fierce looking dog could be so downright goofy and absoulely loveable.
He may not be the reason for the name CoopDecor... but he certainly was the love and inspiration.
We have so much to be grateful for... our homes, our family, our friends, and our talents. The purpose and journey of CoopDecor is not about money or profits or fame. It is not about how many homes we can redesign or pieces of furniture we sell. Our purpose is to shine our light, share our talents, and help others. Our purpose is to dream big and work hard everyday to make it all happen. Our purpose is to bring out the best in others through home design, community support, and individual growth.
...To put smiles on faces everyday.
Thankful... Moxie...Peace... Illumination
