Can you even believe it?!? We are talking today to Jill Donovan of Rustic Cuff! This was so much fun to record, partly because she is just so extraordinary, and partly because she invited us to her beautiful office to do our recording! We loved getting to see behind the scenes of her store, where the world of Rustic Cuff takes shape. It was amazing!

Jill has chosen a new hobby every year for the last 42 years! She has had all sorts of interesting pastimes, from memorization, to learning how to play unusual instruments, to learning magic tricks! One of her "hobbies" became her life's work and ministry: making cuffs. You will get to hear how that started, how a comment from Oprah changed things, and how Jill has learned to never lose her sense of wonder.

We learned about forgiving dream-stealers, not comparing our Chapter One to someone else's Chapter Twenty, and learning to always say "Yes" to God's prompting. Jill's story is one of hope, creativity, and inspiration. She has been through a lot and was so gracious to share her lessons of trusting in God each step of the way, even when the way doesn't seem clear. You will love this one!
