The power of partnership is strong. Have you thought of starting a new venture WITH a partner? Together, Joanne and Natalie are partners in The Garden Journey, a company whose mission is to create objects of beauty that help people experience nature’s mysteries as a portal to reconnection with themselves. Joanne shares that neither of them thinks they could have launched this company on their own.

Natalie is a multidisciplinary creative director and designer based in NY and FL. Driven by both strategy and emotion, her work’s cornerstone is a deliberate, collaborative process.
