Margo is joined by self-taught polymer clay artist Rachael Skidmore.  Rachael’s passion for self-expression, penchant for artistic creativity, and dedication to hard work have been the foundation of her success as a small business owner for over 13 years. She established MadebyMaeberry in Aug 2019 and has inspired large audiences through her social media presence online and delivered hands-on teaching by hosting intimate classes in person.   While she is widely recognized in the polymer clay community for producing high-quality pieces, her voice of genuine support for inclusivity is what makes her stand out as a creator. A curator of color with a knack for original design and tantalizing patterns, Rachael takes inspiration from all aspects of her life; from her passion for vintage clothing to her love for hiking in the mountains with her family.    Margo and Rachael discuss:  Her journey from social work to polymer clay creativity Her mental health journey: therapy, medication, and living with ADHD The importance of having people to lean on to aide in your success How to scale when you like to work for yourself and by yourself Finding harmony between creative work and family life Risk taking and growing her audience Her experience in publishing a book And more   Connect with Rachael: http://madebymaeberry.com/ www.instagram.com/madebymaeberry Polymer Clay Jewelry; The Ultimate Guide to Making Wearable Art Earrings Polymer Clay Jewelry Design for Beginners (Dometika Course)
