makerRadio: Recent Episodes
Rachel Smith and Katrina Stewart
Today we chat our goals from the beginning of the year and where we are at with the progress of those goals. We also chat about taking the summer off and finding balance with where we are at.
Today, we are exploring a quote by Mandy Hale: Happiness is letting go of what you think your life is supposed to look like and celebrating it for everything that it is.
Today we chat about the idea of a Daily Uniform: What it is and how have we started to curate a daily uniform. #dailyuniform and capsule wardrobe are very closely related. We talk a lot about conscious shopping and where to spend our money when it comes to making our clothing pieces. The idea of longevity is something we both struggle with when we are making things that can be timeless.
This week, we are chatting about what it means to be a ‘multicrafter’ and why this is important. Since we are all given 24 hours in a day, we both talked about the importance of choosing how we spend our time. Lastly, Katrina has a great label for those of us who self-identify as multicraft-ural: Master Maker.
This week, we are chatting about getting ready for a large fibre festival local to us, Fibres West 2017! Katrina has been burning the candle at both ends and she shares in more depth about that struggle for balance.
We decided to explore a quote from Kurt Vonnnegut about the passion behind creating and how we approach our making, no matter what. We hope you enjoy our discussion.
Both of us wanted to chat about our Finished Objects and some of our WIPs. We hope you enjoy it!
Last week, we talked about our focus for the new year and some goals we had in mind to accomplish. This got us talking off air about how to actually accomplish this! I had stumbled across an Instagram post with a great question for makers everywhere, which I shared with Katrina. This formed the basis for tonight’s discussion since we are both balancing many different things.
Today on makerRadio, we chat about Focus. We thought we'd start by chatting about how we envision our making for the year and specifically some projects that we foresee ourselves focusing on this year. Please share what you'd like to make for the year at makerradio.wordpress.com - we'd love to hear from you!
Thank you for tuning into our pilot episode of makerRadio. We’d like to welcome you to this place. This initial episode gives us an opportunity to introduce ourselves to give you a sense of who we are and what we do.
