I’d like to introduce you to my artist friend, Jessica Watkins of Tiny Deer Studio and The Pin Department.

We’ve been friends for years and this conversation was just so fun! If you’ve watched my YouTube videos about making pins, you’ll know that Jessica helped me produce my first enamel pins and effectively changed my life.

We chat about making difficult choices and big life moves. We chat about doing markets, different ways we find time to play in our creativity and lots about our love for H-E-B as Texans in different states. Plus, how she manages running two very different kinds of businesses and how they’re both creatively fulfilling in different ways.

There’s so much more in this chat and I hope you enjoy!

Today, in my first interview, I'd like to introduce you to my artist friend, and real life best friend, Libby of LuxCups!

We talk all about the orgins of her business, her wholesale journey (including tradeshows and working with a rep group) and most importantly, her dogs. 

This conversation was so fun!  It's a combo of business talk and friend chat and that's what this podcast is all about.

Please forgive my audio quality, I'm still very new and figuring it out.
