Chelsea Litsey
I just met Chelsea Litsey for the first time last weekend after hearing her speak at the @theboisebreakfastclub Spring Summit. I immediately signed up to work with her.
Treats by Tay
Back in 2018 I found a local baker who did the most beautiful cakes and I ordered one. She had a small Instagram page of about 500 followers and I thought I lucked out discovering this new local gem. Flash forward to the next year when I decided to order another cake and I found her page with over 100,000 followers and national coverage. 😂 That escalated quickly! Taylor of @treatsbytay is an incredible talent and I think we should all get to know her better”
Abie of Creative Co Studios
Hi! I’m Abie, an eighth-generation Idahoan, branding photographer, and visual content creator based in Boise. I’m the daughter and granddaughter of entrepreneurs, so I grew up knowing I wanted to build something of my own—something that gave me the freedom to do what I love while eventually raising a family. I picked up a camera in high school and never put it down. After walking through a season of personal growth in my early 20s, I made the decision to go all in and build a business that could support both my life and my purpose. That’s how Creative Co. Studios was born.

Liyah Babayan, She Gave Me Hope
Liyah is the founder of MAKEPEACE (an organic, potato skincare line) pledging to donate soap to displaced people for every product sold. With a passion to give back to her adoptive country, Liyah served on the Twin Falls School Board, and was the first refugee to run for City Council and State Representative in Idaho. Liyah was recognized as one of Idaho’s Women of the Year in 2015 and 2020, received the ACLU’s Civil Rights Service Award, the Hometown Hero award, the Governor’s “Extra Mile” award and was featured in The New York Times. Her book “Liminal, a refugee memoir” was published in 2018. In this work she documents her family’s survival of the ethnic killings of Armenians in Baku, Azerbaijan.
DJ NoFo
As soon as I saw Noelle in her natural element, I knew I needed to introduce her to the rest of the Treasure Valley.
Nia Coffey, Boise’s Signature Jewelry
Let’s meet Nia Coffey! Co-Founder & President/Creative Designer of @eightfiveone! Since half of Treasure Valley women are walking around wearing her jewelry, just makes sense to know about the genius behind the brand!
Elizabeth Lizberg, Camp Rainbow Gold

Frannie Pack, She Gets It
@frannie_pack is a brand strategist, visionary, photographer, and founder of @ampersand_studios. She gets it. Running a business means chasing big dreams, feeling all the weird emotions, and battling the occasional head trash.
Rose Sellars, From Technology Exec to Beloved Coffee House Founder
In spring of 2025, Rose opened Primitive Grounds on a historic corner in Old Town Meridian. An organic coffee shop built around health-forward ingredients, thoughtful sourcing, and a pace that invites people to slow down. It did not take long for it to become a place people felt drawn to, not just for coffee, but for how it made them feel.

Haley with Rice & Beans Collective - Western Vintage Clothing
If thrifting or western are love languages of yours, you probably already know Haley of @riceandbeanscollective
Lorelle Rau, Art Consultant and Collage Artist
I’ve been a fan of local artist @lorellerau of @lorelleraustudios for a while now. Not only is she a fantastic creative, she holds an impressive resume of accomplishments and she does so much in the community. Not to mention is such a lovely person. With all of the chaos in the world right now it seemed like the perfect time to highlight someone who’s making the world beautiful, one art piece at a time.
