Bushyl - Steph Schertz
I started making handmade soap in the summer of 2021 and launched my business shortly thereafter. This channel is where I document all the behind the scenes that goes into growing this business, from expanding product lines (soy candles, lip balms, shower steamers, bath salts, etc.) to the mental challenges of running a business on my own with ADHD and anxiety, to celebrating the wins as I grow bigger than I could have expected. I appreciate this community so much and am extremely grateful for every single viewer! Feel free to check out my products at Bushyl.com!
