Ep: 327 - “Blooming late,” Academia, & Imposter Syndrome with Page Kelly

<p>This week, my conversation with Page Kelly of Zephyr Valley Ceramics twists and turns, much like her career paths. A self-proclaimed “late bloomer,” there is this stunning moment in this conversation at about the 46-ish minute marker when Page discusses the narrative body of work she is currently producing, where I hear literally every experience she has had in the last 2 decades - inside <em>and</em> outside of working in clay - come together. It’s an encouraging moment, especially for those of us that feel like we are getting started in this beautiful journey a bit… well, <em>later</em> than others. Note: There is a tiny bit of adult language in the latter half of this episode, so if you are listening around kiddos are in a community setting, you might want to choose to pop on some headphones.</p><p>Page is one of the founding members of The Community, our online home for makers and we do reference in a few times during our chat.

Yes, even with your cell phone). I only host this webinar twice a year, at most, because it is BIG. I pack it full of quick and helpful tips you can immediately implement, no matter how you are currently taking photos of your work. Plus, there’s time for Live Q&amp;A! While it is free, spaces still are limited (because that’s how webinar hosting platforms work), so be sure to save your spot by clicking here and signing up for your choice of two different times on either January 26th or 27th, 2023 (and if you are listening to this episode after those dates have passed, you can still click that link to sign up for our email newsletter list and start receiving our monthly free photo tips, specifically geared for ceramicists and makers!). <br/><br/></p><p>Full show notes and an a
