• Some discussion on the value of just trying stuff – and being willing to accept successes and failures along the way.
• Helpful ideas on the value of finding those intermediate steps between you and your big business goals.
• …And a really important emerging idea: finding ways to create small income opportunities for other crafters.

Oooh! I really can't wait to hear you two. :-) This Podcast just couldn't come at a better time as I am thinking of going solo, in a near future.
I'll download it this weekend and give my feedback to you too, for sure. xoxo!
Have a great Valentine's day, Diane. :-)
What a sweet show, full of great advice and food for thought… I will listen again tomorrow and mull this over! :-) I love Kristin’s new e-book – congratulations to you both for a great job!
Hope you enjoy, Fanie!
Wonderful podcast, Diane and Kristin! Thank you both for taking the time to share the inspiring story of Craft Leftovers. I love that Kristin wasn't even thinking about it as a potential business when she started. It's stories like this that keep me traveling along the crafty path.
Yay! Thanks so much, Hanna. I'm so glad you enjoyed it.
Thank you, Julianna! It really is amazing how far a simple idea can travel if you're open to exploration. So glad you liked this show.
These are the kiinds of people that make crafting and journalling just so much fun.
This was such an inspiring podcast! Thank you both for your enthusiasm for what you do. I especially love the point that Kristin started with something very close to her heart and just went from there. That's a great model for us all!
