Hi All! Melissa from Histoire here, and I am beyond excited to share our next guest for the Love Leaves A Legacy Podcast, Marissa from @thewildfleur_co
Marissa is the owner and floral artist at The Wild Fleur Co. The episode will launch next Wednesday, June 1st!
Let us know if you’re just as excited as we are to listen to what Marissa has to say about her business, the impact her mother’s passing had on her life, the legacy she is creating of her own, and much more. Her story is just as beautiful as her florals! 💙
In this episode, we go through all of the different facets of what a legacy is to us as individuals and how they impact our businesses. Most of all we talk about how we take the lessons that we’ve learned and approach them realistically and compassionately.
We get into the weeds of the flowery and the thorny bits of legacy, family and so much more!
More about our guest, Marissa:
Hey everyone! I'm Marissa.
Welcome to The Wild Fleur Co. - a floral design company specializing in personal and special event florals in Northern California and beyond. Inspired by the beauty of nature, my travels, and elevated blooms, I strive to delight my customers with every order. A proud Latina-owned and operated business, The Wild Fleur Co. is committed to sourcing sustainable, locally grown flowers (whenever possible), and collaborating with women-owned businesses in 2022.
As a relative newbie on the flower scene, my journey in floral artistry blossomed after the loss of my mother in 2020. I wanted to channel my grief into something beautiful, so with the encouragement of friends and family, I took the leap and founded The Wild Fleur Co.
Now, I’m a product developer by day, and a budding florist by night. I truly love what I do. When I’m not rummaging around the flower mart or dreaming up new ideas, I’m busy collecting stamps in my passport, hiking, and practicing yoga (I even got certified on my travels to India!).
For the premiere episode of this podcast, we have guest star BrieAnna, the brilliantly talented woman behind The Speakeasy Baking Co.
Melissa & BrieAnna go through a list of questions that delve into the destiny in the baking and the legacy that BrieAnna continued after she received an unmistakable sign from her grandma. This is one to bring a tear to all, so bring your tissues!
We hope that you enjoy this episode!
May is AAPI month! It is important to us that we share the stories of AAPI individuals and delve into their worlds.

This is the concluding podcast episode will focus on part one of the Histoire-Education Deconstructing Culture series focusing on the 5-F word project. The 5-F word project examines 5 words that start with the letter “F” that are key trigger words that give insight into the discourse of Filipinx-Americans. We will try to deconstruct the meaning, the histories and identify key moments in our lives and our parents and grandparents lives that best represent(ed) each of those words and apply them to our personal and shared experiences of 5 California raised Filipinx American women.
Our special guests include: Crissy, Jill, Maggie and Megan.
October is a special month for Histoire:
-
It is Filipinx History Month and as a Filipinx American, to start with this topic means a lot to me and...
-
Our brand Histoire-Legacy will be launching our first products soon, which is important because it focuses on the Legacies that we leave our future generations…
-
It is also American archives month – which is important to us because Histoire is dedicated to highlighting the importance of instilling an archival legacy as well. (side note: ask Nick to do a podcast, for American archives month)
As first generation and as Asian Americans, this is important because we often find ourselves in a state where we examine how we are going to instill our legacy because there are different opportunities afforded to us that our previous generation didn’t necessarily have because their experience was much different.
