Ever wondered what it REALLY takes to open a brick and mortar pet business from scratch? 

Spoiler alert: It's messy, magical, and takes about 3x longer than you think it will! 😅😅

In this raw, unfiltered episode of our Behind Closed Doors series, Candace pulls back the curtain on the wild ride of building Dante & Dory's Pet Emporium. This is the real story of what happens between "great idea" and "grand opening."

What you'll discover in this candid update:

🎯 Why everything takes 3x longer than anyone tells you (and how to stay sane anyway)

🎯 The Facebook Marketplace strategy that's saving THOUSANDS on fixtures and displays

🎯 The art of decision-making when you're trying NOT to be everything to everyone

Plus, you'll get the play-by-play on everything from HVAC nightmares to bakery case finds, and why gold spray paint has become a life saver!

If you're planning your own expansion, considering a brick and mortar move, or just need a reminder that entrepreneurial overwhelm is totally normal, this episode will make you feel less alone and more inspired to keep pushing forward!
