Happy Father’s Day to all the incredible dads and father figures out there! Today, my heart is overflowing with gratitude as I reflect on my dad’s role in my life.
When we launched our Ukraine candle, a deeply meaningful project for us, my dad stepped in without hesitation Day after day, he was there, pouring candles and offering his unwavering support when he was still working full time. That’s just who he is - always showing up and always putting others first.
I’ve lost count of the number of times he’s been there for me. Whether it’s fixing things around the shop, building our candle bar, or simply listening on the tough days, his kindness and steady presence mean the world. If you’ve been part of our community, chances are you’ve seen his generosity in action too.
This Father’s Day, I’m reminded that the true gift of a father isn’t found in grand gestures, but in the everyday acts of love, support, and care. My dad has been an anchor in a world that often feels uncertain, and his unwavering support has taught me the true meaning of resilience, hope, and community.
To all the fathers and father figures, thank you for everything you do. And to my dad, thank you for being a light in my life.
If you’re thinking of someone special today, take a moment to honor them—with a call, a hug, or even a quiet moment of gratitude. And if they’re no longer with you, hold onto the comfort that their spirit is always near.
💛 Christiana
