S5 Episode 9: It’s All Coming Up Roses with Jackie Dumouchel

Jackie Dumouchel’s journey is a testament to resilience, growth, and the pursuit of passion. Born into a chaotic family background, Jackie’s post-high school path was initially uncertain. Her adventurous, wild child spirit led her to Hollywood in 1989, where she dabbled in modelling and furthered her education at a community college. The course of her life shifted when she secured a position at a Beverly Hills flower shop, igniting a life-long passion within her. Today, Jackie is at the helm of Lotus & Lily Floral Design, a boutique floral and event design firm focusing on luxury florals, bespoke designs, and custom curated floral creations. Despite facing personal upheavals at 50, including a divorce after two decades of marriage and fluctuating confident levels, Jackie found love again and continued to evolve both personally and professionally. Jackie’s journey mirrors the blooming of her signature lilies - an ever-expanding path marked by resilience, passion, and an unwavering confidence in her craft. In this episode, Jackie talks about her wild child youth, how she found her passion in flowers, and the importance of never succumbing to social media.
