This is my incredible employee, Natalie. The little girl next to her is her daughter, Karly. I want to share a little bit about Natalie’s story. Natalie is the hardest working, most devoted, incredibly loving, and overall most awesome woman that has ever worked for me. When I started this boutique, I knew that I wanted to hire women who were “un-hireable”. Women who had past lives that were “scary” to employers. But they aren’t to me. I partner with HavenHope, A safe place for women. This is an organization that provides free housing for women who have been victims of abuse, addiction, sex trafficking, prostitution, and many other horrific things that you and I can’t even fathom. Natalie has worked for me for a little over six months. She is always on time, never misses work, works extra hours when needed, and is always there to help. Today, Natalie had to bring her daughter to work. I am 1000% ok with that. She called me and asked my permission, first. Karly is incredibly well-behaved and has never bothered anyone. When you shop my boutique, you are helping women like Natalie support their children and recover from abuse. There are several items in my store that when purchased, money is donated back into HavenHope. Next time you are in, say “Hello” to this awesome lady! I pray that other businesses will follow suit. With God’s wonderful Grace, this boutique is doing well and I am proud of my employee and her grace-filled life. . . #TheDustyMillerMercantile #Boutique #Ohio #OhioBoutique #Oakwood #OakwoodOhio #Employee #Daughter #2ndchances #Grace #SupportEachother #Recovery #Employed #NeverJudge #ILoveThisBookCover

Hi friends! One of the joys of a being a small business owner/dealing with every day life is the fact that I am terribly sick today! I have caught the dreaded stomach bug! With that being said, the store will be opening late today. My employee can’t be there until closer to 11:00. This is real life guys! Sometimes I just can’t open until later because I’m sick! Happy Thursday! Stay healthy my friends!
