They say a diamond is forever, but for Vivian Grimes, an entrepreneur and jeweler, her love for jewelry began long before she ever thought about starting her own business. Growing up, she watched her father work in his workshop and was fascinated by the way he could take a piece of metal and turn it into something beautiful. This early exposure to the creative process sparked a passion for design that would eventually lead her to start her own jewelry business, Henri Noel.

Vivian shares how her business has been built on the foundations of family, inspiration, and community. She also talks about how her business has evolved, the challenges of expansion and advice on  building successful relationships with your customers and network online and in-person.

So whether you're just starting out in business or you're a seasoned entrepreneur, this episode is sure to inspire!
