This little store was on my wife’s dream list:) The artist and founder of this company Mark Borella was awesomeeeeeeee. He showed us his whole workshop and answered every question my wife had:) She Just loves this product and goes around handing out little seeds of happiness:) Or leaving them in special areas for people to pickup:) We also met three employees, so much hospitality shown to us on this visit:) Mark came off so humbling as a man and artist. As my wife continued to say all day, this was a great day:) She loved the tour and the gift shop:)

I'm a huge believer that there are no coincidences. A few years ago, my wife got me this little ceramic happy face called a Seed of Happiness. She was in Gooseberry Falls, Minnesota. Turns out these Seeds of Happiness are made in Kirkwood, MO. I just so happen to be teaching a seminar just a few blocks away today. After class, I decided to visit the birthplace of said seeds. The owner, Mark, head seed artist and I spent over 45 min sharing their story. It was a powerful day. One of shared compassion and a desire to commit to small changes in people's lives, which can compound into great movements...of happiness. So when you are in St. Louis, and want to bask in some Happiness, give Seeds of Happiness a visit.
