Life, Values & Legacy: Our Chat with Anastasiia Rieznik

We’re looking forward to introducing you to Anastasiia Rieznik. Check out our conversation below.

Hi Anastasiia, thank you so much for joining us today. We’re thrilled to learn more about your journey, values and what you are currently working on. Let’s start with an ice breaker: When was the last time you felt true joy?
Last week, my husband and I took a 5-day camping trip for his birthday to the Sierra Mountains, 5 days of complete joy and relaxation exploring Yosemite, Mammoth Lakes, and all the surrounding areas. Sometimes you just need to disconnect from the outside world and experience life in the most simple way possible

Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
My name is Anastasiia, and I am the owner and creative director of Blooming Fern.
Floral company in Southern California.
My husband and I run an event floral business together. The creation of Blooming Fern was the most organic next step in the journey of our love, love for nature, blooms, and the desire to help others celebrate their love with flowers!
We love to think that we have a great balance of maximizing our creative energy and providing the most custom-tailored service for our couples.

We found our soul calling, and since launching Blooming Fern, we have achieved many milestones we could never dream about.

From lovers to lovers, we custom-tailor floral art for our clients

Thanks for sharing that. Would love to go back in time and hear about how your past might have impacted who you are today. What was your earliest memory of feeling powerful?
To be honest, I think flowers are what truly made me powerful in the most fulfilling and gentle way possible.
Flowers helped me discover the power of art, the impression it makes on other people, and inspire them.
Flowers taught me not to be afraid to express myself in the most unique ways and create art that follows people throughout the most important moments of their lives.

What fear has held you back the most in your life?
I think fear of not being good enough will be familiar to a lot of people.
But then sometimes it takes just one person at the right moment to tell you that you are doing great and they believe in you and it can change your life

Alright, so if you are open to it, let’s explore some philosophical questions that touch on your values and worldview. What’s a belief or project you’re committed to, no matter how long it takes?
I think the main project in each person’s life is self-discovery and self-improvement. It is a never-ending journey of getting to know yourself more and more every year. Accept the changes and embrace new journeys that life always has waiting for you

Okay, so let’s keep going with one more question that means a lot to us: Are you doing what you were born to do—or what you were told to do?
Yes, I definitely feel that right now I am doing exactly what I was born to do, both in my personal and professional life.

And honestly, I couldn’t have been happier about it. I am running a successful creative business with the love of my life. I do flowers and make people happy with my work, meeting amazing, talented people all the time during weddings. When I am not doing that, I travel with my husband and do all kinds of fun things together.
Every night I go to bed with a sense of fulfilment and gratitude for the life I have.
