What do you get when two best friends, a shared dream, and a bridal boutique meet an unexpected disaster? For Allie Holland and Stephanie Palmer, co-owners of Monica’s Bridal, it meant facing one of the hardest seasons of their lives — and choosing to rebuild, stronger and more intentional than ever.

In this episode, Allie and Stephanie share what it’s really like to run a business with your best friend, how they led their team through the aftermath of a devastating fire, and why inclusivity — from plus-size gowns to LGBTQ+ representation — is at the heart of everything they do.

This is a story about resilience, radical friendship, and what happens when you say “yes” to starting over.
