From Lockdown to Luxury: How Vivian Built One More Thing from Scratch

In this inspiring episode of Get Up 10, I sit down with Vivian, the founder and CEO of One More Thing—a luxury flower and homeware brand now stocked in Brown Thomas and Kildare Village.

Vivian shares her incredible journey from leaving behind her life in Hong Kong to start anew in Ireland, where she knew no one and had no job, to building a premium brand with loyal customers and international aspirations. We talk about the early struggles, the accidental order that led to her first 60 sales, the power of one Instagram post, and the moment Brown Thomas came calling—just 10 months after she launched.

This conversation is packed with wisdom on building a business from the ground up, staying authentic on social media, nurturing team culture, and finding confidence as a creative entrepreneur. Vivian’s story is proof that sometimes, one more thing can change everything.
