Happy New Year!

Happy New Year 2025! Positive manifestation: This year is going to be the best year ever!

If 2024 was the year of getting things “back on track,” then 2025 will be the year of moving onward and upward. This is the year of setting — AND ACHIEVING — bigger and more expansive goals personally, for family, for business and for the world.

My 2025

For me, I currently have two big things planned for early 2025. I’ve decided to share these now for both the accountability and the amazing support you all give me. I may also need to ask for some help and feedback along the journey.

New Edition of Soap and Cosmetic Labeling

The first big project to be released in 2025 is the updated edition of my book, Soap and Cosmetic Labeling!

The new edition (the 4th) will include delving deeper into the actual label with revised explanations of the regulations, more diagrams, and all the updates from MoCRA. There’s a completely new section being added – Beyond the Label – which covers other regulations that apply to soap and cosmetic makers.

The book itself will be a slightly larger size and have about 40 more pages. I’m really excited about the content and design.

I’ve been quietly working on it for a while. The final release date is not yet set, although I expect it will be sometime in February.

I’ll be sending out updates on the book as various milestones are achieved. If you would like to get the updates …

New Classes and One-on-One Training

Too many soap and cosmetic makers (maybe even you?) are overwhelmed by the rules and regs and fear the consequences of getting it wrong. That leads to stress and worry … and can take the fun out of making wonderful, enjoyable, creative products.

My passion is being able to help as many people as possible with their labeling and regulatory compliance, and relieve some of the pressure. Honestly, it’s been a struggle for me to find a way to help as many people as possible — and still be able to pay my own bills. Consulting is fine, but there’s only so much I can do!

But now I think I’ve finally found a way!

I’m putting the final details together, but I’m really excited about the possibilities. I’ll announce when I have it a little more put together.

My Wish For You

I hope that this coming year is the best it can be for you.

I hope that you achieve the goals you have set for yourself, your family, your business, and other activities in life.

I hope that you are happy!

And I hope that if you need me, I can help you in whatever way I can to make those dreams a reality.
