In this heartfelt solo episode, Delores Naskrent shares the winding, decades-long journey that took her from hobby artist and craft show vendor to internationally licensed designer and full-time online art teacher.

🎨 From selling in local gift shops and big-ticket craft shows...
 📦 To licensing with Hallmark and teaching over 90,000 students online...
 👩‍🏫 To building a thriving membership and making art part of daily life again...

This episode is a raw, real, and reflective look at what it really takes to build an online teaching business as a creative — and all the things Delores wishes she’d known sooner.

You'll hear:

✨ How a “flop” craft fair led to a life-changing licensing contract
 ✨ The transition from classroom teaching to Skillshare to full independence
 ✨ The surprising workload of teaching online (it's not just recording!)
✨ Why asking for help changed everything
✨ The top 3 pieces of advice she'd give her younger self

Whether you’re just starting out or deep in the juggle, this episode will remind you: you don’t have to do it all at once — and you don’t have to do it alone.
