    Jul 20 2025

    Send us a text

    After a year of nonstop business focus, I finally picked up a tool I bought ages ago—my Dremel—and rediscovered the joy of creating. In this episode, I share the journey of returning to my jewelry-making hobby, how unexpected downtime turned into a creative revival, and why I'm choosing to make this summer about pleasure, presence, and personal joy. If you've been buried in to-dos and missing what lights you up, this one's for you.
