Christine Blanquart shares how filling your own cup allows you to better serve your family, business, relationships, and community. Christine is the owner of Blanquart’s Vintage Market on East Main Street in the heart of Downtown Belleville, tucked inside the historic 1860’s Keil’s Hardware Building where everything tells a story including the building itself. Alongside her husband and sons, she has created more than a shop. It’s a place where people walk in and feel something where pieces from the past find their way into new homes and new memories begin. Her path from critical care nurse to shop owner is rooted in the same calling: caring deeply, noticing what others might overlook, and holding space for what matters. And today, she shares a message that reflects that journey… one about filling your own cup first, so you can truly pour into others Contact this Speaker Directly: Christine Blanquart – Blanquart’s Vintage Market Facebook: facebook.com/BlanquartsVintageMarket Instagram: instagram.com/blanquartsvintagemarket Website: blanquartsrustygem.lovable.app/ WEW events are all about connection and community, and we love sharing those moments.
