    Ep 6 - Cheeky Request

    Host Sarah of Fareham Florist recounts a morning when she rearranged her schedule to make an early bouquet for a customer who never arrived, then received blame instead of thanks. The episode mixes a specific shop story with broader reflections on respect, boundaries and the emotional toll of being taken for granted. Sarah also touches on resilience in the face of trolls and bullying, the importance of self-care and seeking support, and encourages simple courtesy and communication that make a big difference for small business owners.   Music featured throughout this episode was generated under license using the Suno app. The lyrics for the introduction and closing segments were written by the podcast creator.

    Ep 4 - Coffin Chasers

    In this episode Sarah recounts a tense day when a scheduling error sent her and her driver racing against time to deliver funeral tributes, earning them the tongue-in-cheek nickname "coffin chasers." She narrates the fast-paced route, quick thinking and teamwork that ensured the flowers arrived just in time. The story highlights the unseen pressures of floristry — logistics, responsibility and calm under pressure — while offering a candid glimpse into life as a small business owner and how listeners can support the podcast.   Music featured throughout this episode was generated under license using the Suno app. The lyrics for the introduction and closing segments were written by the podcast creator.

    Ep 3 - British Summer Time

    Ep 2 - Pod Casting

    Routes run deep, the petals show, fareham florist pod, hear the stories grow. Hosted by Sarah on a dark, wet Tuesday morning, this episode explains how a surprise listener and a lost manuscript led her to turn real floristry memories into a podcast.

If you enjoy the show, you can support her at www.buymeacoffee.com/ferronfloristpod, find her cameo on My Haunted Hotel - the episode shared on Friday 23rd January 2026 (see the 11-minute mark), and contact queries@farehamfloristpod.co.uk with stories or questions.  It's also Sarah's birthday today so how about giving her a little lift and share this with as many people as you possibly can!    Music featured throughout this episode was generated under license using the Suno app. The lyrics for the introduction and closing segments were written by the podcast creator.

    Hello, I’m Sarah — florist, storyteller and small business owner. In this episode I walk you through a typical (and not-so-typical) day in my flower shop: early alarms, conditioning blooms, taking photos of every order, and juggling customers, deliveries and unexpected dramas. Hear amusing and heartfelt customer stories, the pressure of busy days like Valentine’s, practical flower-care tips, and how running a small floral business is equal parts creativity, logistics and emotion. Stay tuned for ways to support the podcast and how to contact me with questions or your own florist stories.
