Jen is an inspiring soul who combines poetry and floral design to make art that inspires and empowers others. In this episode, we discuss her journey into floral artistry and her experiences growing up on a farm and growing her own flowers as a child.

We chat about finding your purpose, stepping into it and then possibly making a living out of it. Jen gives advice to artists and makers in better translating emotions into words for their audience or creative community, as well as creating a context for their work or products. We then further discuss 'pivoting' your brand or business during these strange times and how this growth and change can be especially messy but really good.

Listen to the end for a live reading by Jen of one of her beautiful poems!
