Doing pottery brings so much joy! Join me for this episode of the podcast where I talk about some mental re-frames that can support your joy as a Potter even more!

🌈 - Seeing β€˜failure’ as an opportunity for learning.

🌈 - The importance of not judging your early work and instead celebrating the evolution of your pottery skills.

🌈 - Allowing yourself to play and experiment in your pottery and how this can inspire your creativity.

🌈 - The importance of following your curiosity and the things you enjoy learning about.

🌈 - Allowing yourself to make things your way, however that feels right for you in your own body.
