Jaki Canterbury is the proprietor of the sustainable fabric store Slow Fiber in Monterey CA, a one-person show that began when "courage met necessity."
In this conversation we get deep on restoring our relationship to clothing via mending, making and restoring, and purchasing new supplies thoughtfully. She'll inspire you to get out that sewing machine and sew yourself some clothes!
We talk about choosing bravely, making mistakes, living in the present and what it's like to do your deep work all day, every day. (Hint: she ends the day as energized as she began it.)
Jaki is a prolific creator of events, circles, workshops and online gatherings. Check out everything she's doing at SlowFiber.com, on Instagram, or on Facebook. Have your sewing supplies handy because you'll want to start playing.

Jaki says: "the more you exercise courage the bigger it gets." She'll inspire you to explore the edges of your courage, too!
