Coconut Lane Turns 8 🎂
This year, rather than doing an Interview with Jess and I, we thought it was be super cute to include the whole team! Coconut Lane is so much more than just Jess and I, and we feel our team of incredible girls deserve so much recognition! Whenever we post Team pics/TikToks we get so much interest, you guys love knowing more about who works for us, and all the goings-on at Coconut Lane HQ! So we decided to do a little interview with everyone, so you can get to know the team a bit better!
