Suzanne Stowers Barrett, co-founder of Stowers’ Flowers and a lifelong advocate for creativity and community, has been featured in an exclusive online interview titled "What Does Success Look Like to You? - Suzanne Stowers Barrett." This in-depth discussion showcases Suzanne’s journey from her career in the diemaking and diecutting industry to becoming a thriving entrepreneur in the floral business she co-founded with her nephew.
In the interview, Suzanne reflects on how her upbringing in Dawson County shaped her values and inspired her dedication to service. Drawing on the influence of her father, Keith Stowers, a longtime Dawson County School Superintendent, Suzanne emphasizes the importance of hard work, resilience, and community support.
“Growing up in Dawson County taught me that success isn’t just about personal achievements—it’s about contributing to the community and uplifting those around you,” Suzanne shares in the interview.
After a decade of excelling in operations and sales leadership within the diemaking industry, Suzanne realized she wanted to combine her professional expertise with her lifelong passion for flowers. This realization led to the creation of Stowers’ Flowers, a business that embodies her vision of blending beauty, creativity, and purpose.
“Flowers are a universal symbol of growth, beauty, and resilience,” she says. “At Stowers’ Flowers, we see every arrangement as a chance to make someone’s day a little brighter.”
The interview also highlights Suzanne’s commitment to giving back, including her work with PurpleStride, a cause close to her heart that raises funds for pancreatic cancer research. Suzanne views her business as an extension of her dedication to service, contributing to her community in meaningful ways.
The most rewarding part of running Stowers’ Flowers, Suzanne notes, is seeing the joy that her arrangements bring to others. From weddings to heartfelt gestures of love and sympathy, she believes flowers have a unique ability to connect people and create lasting memories.
For Suzanne, success is a holistic concept that goes beyond professional milestones. It’s about creating something meaningful, building relationships, and making a positive impact. “Success isn’t just about growing Stowers’ Flowers,” she says. “It’s about using that growth to uplift the people and causes that matter most.”
