✨ June and July have always been life-changing months for me. ✨
🖤June 2001 – I started my journey with Petra Fashions.
🖤June 2004 – When Petra closed, I didn’t quit. I moved on to UndercoverWear and kept building my business.
🖤June 2013 – I took one of the biggest leaps of faith of my life and left my full-time job to do parties full-time.
🖤June 2014 – When UndercoverWear closed, I pivoted once again and joined Pure Romance.
🖤July 2025 – When Pure Romance moved to a direct-to-customer model, I chose to bet on myself and opened Valeriespartys.
Looking back, every time a door closed, another one opened. There were plenty of scary moments, challenges, tears, and times when I wondered what would come next. But one thing I never did was give up.
For 25 years, I’ve continued to adapt, grow, and keep moving forward. Every change taught me something, every challenge made me stronger, and every chapter helped shape the business I have today.
June and July aren’t just months on a calendar for me—they’re reminders that sometimes the biggest blessings come disguised as life’s biggest changes. Here’s to taking chances, trusting the journey, and never giving up on your dreams. 🖤💗🖤✨
