Welcome to the debut episode of The Creative Chronicles podcast! I'm so excited to have you join me on this journey exploring the world of small business artists. As the title suggests, this podcast is all about sharing the stories of creative individuals and their unique paths to success. But before we dive into those fascinating conversations, I want to take a moment to share my own journey with you.

Like many, I started my career in the corporate world, but soon realized it wasn't where my true passion lay. Feeling a longing for something more fulfilling, I took a leap of faith and pursued a career in ceramic art, despite having no formal training. It's been a journey of self-discovery and perseverance, filled with highs, lows, and countless learning experiences.

Now, as the host of The Creative Chronicles, I'm excited to shine a spotlight on other makers and their incredible stories. From exploring different art forms to uncovering the motivations behind their work, each episode will be a celebration of creativity and resilience. 

Join me as we embark on this inspiring adventure together, filled with joy, positivity, and endless inspiration.
