Finding Joy by Channeling Creativity: The Mane Wildling

For the conclusion of Women’s History Month, Verushka Wilson, founder & owner of The Mane Wildling joined us in the studio for another Business in Blue episode. Verushka shares how – in the midst of tragedy and grief – she harnessed her innate passion for nature, design and beauty and began designing floral arrangements. What began as a coping mechanism ultimately resulted into a successful and unique business venture that pays homage to her roots, specifically her late grandfather. Listen in as she expands on how her company connects business and art to the Memphis community.
