This quiz shows you the most dominant archetype that gets activated when you’re outside your comfort zone - aka when business asks you to lead, not just make pretty things.

Your result isn’t who you are - It’s what you do when things feel big.

Some people control. Some people please. Some shut down. Some disappear into planning.

The point is: Once you become aware of it, you can start spotting it in real time, which is when you start shifting from florist ➝ founder.

And THAT is how you grow a really successful floristry business.

👉 Here's how it works:

There are 10 questions in total.
Choose the response that feels most true for you (don’t overthink it).
You’ll get your result: the archetype you slip into when things feel uncomfortable, uncertain, or high stakes + a breakdown of how it shows up in business.

You’ve got a big floral idea brewing (a new service, shoot concept, pricing shift, or offer). What happens next? *

🧠 You brain-dump everything into a Google Doc or Notion board — moodboards, colour palettes, flower lists, captions, “the vibe”… then don’t touch it again for weeks.

💬 You tell your friends about it or drop it in the group chat, then spiral trying to explain it in a way that sounds legit, confident, and not like you’re making it up as you go.

😮‍💨 You convince yourself it’s too much right now. You’ll start once you’ve got more experience, more confidence, more bookings, more money… just more.

👀 You stalk other florists on Insta/TikTok, binge their content, screenshot their work, save reels, take notes, and wait for a sign before starting anything.

You’ve blocked time to work on promoting your floral business (posting, pitching, or putting yourself out there). What’s your go-to move? *

🎨 You tweak the Canva post again - adjusting fonts, colours, wording, rewriting the caption for the 10th time instead of just… launching.

😬 You talk yourself into offering the smaller version of what you want to do (lower prices, fewer services, less visibility) because the bigger version feels like a lot - and you don’t want people to think you’re overreaching.

😵‍💫 You spiral before you start. What if no one enquires? What if I look desperate? What if I’m not ready? What if I’m not good enough? You talk yourself out of it before you’ve even tried.

💭 You disappear into inspiration mode - saving other florists’ posts, building moodboards, planning shoots, imagining how good it could be… and then the time’s gone and nothing’s actually live.

You made a commitment to yourself to show up consistently on socials this month. What throws you off track? *

🔍 You obsess over how your next post will land - spend hours tweaking it, questioning every word - and end up not posting at all.

✍️ You start writing but keep going back and deleting your caption, worried that you might rub someone the wrong way.

🤷🏻‍♀️ You tell yourself no one’s really paying attention anyway, so why bother wasting your energy?

✨ You keep putting it off - telling yourself you just need the right inspiration, angle, or hook before you can post.

You work up the courage to post about something you’re proud of, but it gets almost zero engagement. How do you react? *

📝 You convince yourself the algorithm punished you because you didn’t do it right - wrong time, wrong hashtags, wrong format. You dive into “How to master Instagram” threads instead of creating your next post.

🤝 You decide you’ll play it safer next time - post something lighter, fluffier, or super aesthetic that you know will rack up likes and soothe the sting of zero engagement this time around.

🫠 You take it as proof that no one cares about your work. You feel embarrassed and low-key humiliated - you replay it in your head and worry what people must be saying and thinking.

👑 You think, “Maybe I’m just not ready yet.” You picture the version of you who posts effortlessly, goes viral, never doubts herself - and then get frustrated wondering, why am I not her yet?

You’ve just had a rough week - no enquiries, low engagement, tech tantrums galore. What’s your rebound move? *

🎨 You tell yourself it’s time for a total rebrand - new colours, new vibe, new logo. You scrap the plan you had originally and start working on the next thing.

💸 You panic-adjust. Drop your prices, add extras, tweak your packages, rewrite your captions - anything to feel more appealing, more “worth it,” more likely to get a yes.

😩 You wonder “Why does this always happen to me?” You scroll other florists’ pages thinking, "If I had their budget, their following, their bookings… this would be so much easier."

👩‍🏫 You retreat into learning mode - bingeing courses, freebies, and trainings. You tell yourself the perfect idea is still out there, and you just need more time trying to find it before going all in.

Things are getting messy with a bride - ignored deadlines, ghosted messages, and missed calls. What’s your next move? *

📑 You overhaul everything - contracts, workflows, policies, boundaries. You spend hours fixing your systems so nothing like this could ever happen again.

🤝 You try to fix it by doing more - extra calls, late-night texts, throwing in more than they paid for - hoping it’ll smooth things over.

🌀 You turn to self-blame: “What did I do wrong?” You replay every interaction, worry about reviews, and fear that one unhappy client could damage your reputation or future bookings.

⏸️ You quietly hit pause on taking new clients for the moment, telling yourself you’ll come back once it’s all “cleaned up.” In the meantime, you're dreaming of the perfect clients who’ll never be this messy.

You’ve hit a wall where nothing’s clicking, and you feel stuck. What do you do? *

📊 You open a fresh spreadsheet or Notion board, mapping out every possible scenario and “what if” - convinced that if you just keep strategising hard enough, you’ll be able to get yourself out of this.

🙏 You feel heavy guilt settling in: How am I going to explain this? You rehearse what you’ll say to your coach, peers, or partner, dreading the disappointment or judgment when they realise you’ve been “off.”

😔 You tell yourself maybe you’re just not cut out for this. Other people have ‘it’ - that special something - and that’s why they’re successful. And you’re not.

⏳ You tell yourself this is just a ‘quiet season’ and that your moment is coming once the timing’s right. Until then, you wait.

Someone offers to help you on a wedding, shoot, or install you really care about - the kind you don’t want to mess up. Before you even respond, what thought kicks in first? *

📝 “They won’t do it the way I want so I’ll just do it myself. I can’t afford to not get it right the first time.”

😅 “I don’t want to seem too demanding or needy… what if I ask for too much and they regret offering once they see what’s involved?"

🤷‍♀️ “They’re just being nice. I shouldn’t burden them - I’ll figure it out by myself.”

🤔 “Thanks for the offer, but I'm not there yet. I’m still picturing how it could all look in my head."

You’ve got space to finally work on your business but nothing feels urgent. What do you do? *

🧹 Clean up your desktop, tweak your website or pricing guide fonts, reorganise your Google Drive to allow for more clarity.

📲 You’re checking in with people, replying to messages, commenting on other florists’ posts, and engaging on Instagram. It feels good to keep connected.

💻 You glance at your to-do list and instantly feel exhausted. Everything feels like too much effort - enquiries, pricing, posting, systems - so you tell yourself tomorrow will be a better day and close the laptop.

💡You fall down the rabbit hole - one article, then another, then suddenly you’re watching someone else’s 90 minute webinar.

You’ve just had a win in your floristry business - a big booking, a breakthrough, a “omg I did that” moment. What do you do next? *

🧩 You tell yourself it doesn’t really count yet and decide you’ll let yourself enjoy it once it feels more solid.

🫶 You feel proud for a second, then quickly balance it out with humility - reminding yourself not to get ahead of yourself or make it “a thing.”

🙈 You struggle to let it land. You immediately focus on what’s still not working and quietly wonder why success always feels so fragile.

📈 You enjoy the high briefly, then start fantasising about the next level - bigger bookings, more momentum - without letting this win really land.
