ABOUT THIS EPISODE
On this Make a Difference Minute, I’m coming to you from Decatur, Alabama, at Mel's Sweet Treats with owner Melissa Cook.
Melissa shares the mindset that helped her through the early years of building her business: if you’re going to do something, give it everything you have so you can look back knowing you truly tried.
She also remembers one of those early customers who would stop by each morning for coffee, try the cookies and spend a few minutes visiting. It was a simple routine, but for a new small-business owner, his presence gave her encouragement to keep going.
Sometimes supporting someone’s dream really can be as simple as showing up.
