Get ready to be holiday-inspired in today’s episode! I’m so excited to introduce my guest, Emily Butler, co-owner of the historic Ah Lewis Store.

We had an amazing in-person chat at NY Now, where Emily shared her passion for crafting unforgettable customer experiences and how she thoughtfully analyzes every aspect of her store through her customers' eyes.

As we dive into our conversation, you’ll discover all the incredible things she’s planning for the upcoming holidays. With this episode dropping in October 2024, it’s the perfect time to follow along with her exciting holiday reveals on Instagram!

This episode is all about sparking inspiration, so I encourage you to soak it all in and think about how you can bring some of this creativity into your own store. You’re going to love this conversation!
