Create & Thrive Podcast: Episode 0 - Jess’ Story

Welcome to the Create & Thrive Podcast! In this pre-episode, I share my story - how I went from studying science, and being super un-crafty, to today,  where I run my successful handmade business - Epheriell - as well as teaching here at Create & Thrive. It was quite an accidental journey, really - and the turning point happened on a Fijian Island in 2008. Before then, I wasn't at all 'crafty' - I was a teacher and an academic (I have 3 Bachelors Degrees that I earnt over 6 years... because I didn't really know what I wanted to do with my life!) and while I liked my job well enough, I always felt like there was something else I'd rather be doing. Fast-forward to today, where I'm lucky enough to be doing exactly what I want to be doing - and living a life of immense freedom and satisfaction - and doing good work that I enjoy and am proud of that helps people and makes the world a little bit shinier. So, how did I get from nerdy science kid to creative businesswoman?
