#49 - Why Not You? Building the Thing You're Craving
You have a beautiful life — and something's still off. In this episode, I'm getting honest about one of those quieter imbalances: not enough in-person, face-to-face human connection in my otherwise very full, very fortunate work-from-home life. I talk about the difference between needing a total life overhaul (spoiler: you don't) and making small, intentional adjustments — the kind that shift everything without burning it all down. Think of it like fitting a garment: a little pinch here, a li...

#48 - Springing from Snow and Getting Carjacked (kind of)
It's the week of the spring equinox and I have three feet of snow in my yard. This episode is my reflection on what it means to embrace the season I'm actually in, even when it looks nothing like the one I'm longing for. I also share a vivid (and surprisingly instructive) dream involving a carjacking, a Danny DeVito lookalike, and a 1964 Eagle Apache — and what unpacking it in my morning pages revealed about apathy, momentum, and the work of showing up for the life I want. In this episode: Th...

#47 - The Notebook I'm Going to Burn
— Morning Pages, Sacred Practices, and Making Space for Joy In this episode, I'm sharing what's been filling my days in the in-between season of late winter and early spring — from winter camping in the woods to planning a rustic cabin adventure with my 10-year-old, hauling gear a mile and a half through the snow. I open up about the creative tension of not sewing as much as I'd like, and how building furniture and developing my Embodied Joy workbook have become the creative outlets calling ...

#46 - What's Stirring Beneath the Surface?
In this episode, I welcome you to a new season of the podcast by exploring Imbolc—the Celtic celebration marking the first stirrings of spring—and the Snow Full Moon occurring together on February 1st, 2026. I share how I'm emerging into 2026 differently, having chosen "Honor" as my word for the year. I talk about resisting the pressure to sprint into New Year's resolutions and instead spending the first weeks of January simply creating—making garments, tending my home, and trusting the proce...

#45 - Finding Spring in Winter's Grip
In this episode of the In Kinship Podcast, I share my journey of embracing the unexpected as winter stubbornly refuses to release its grip on northern Michigan. With warmth and humor, I take you along on an impromptu adventure with my nine-year-old son when we found ourselves "lost" on country roads—transforming what could have been a stressful situation into a memorable bonding experience. I explore how shifting our mindset from fighting circumstances to embracing them creates space for joy,...

#44 The Joy in the Struggle
In this light and candid episode of the In Kinship Podcast, I unpack the ups and downs of the creative process through the lens of a dress gone wrong. With laughter and insight, I share how a see-through fabric mishap and a fiddly neckband led to valuable lessons about embracing failure, stepping away when frustrated, and finding the balance between perfectionism and joy. Whether you're sewing garments or building camping cabinets (or raising my perfectionist 9-year-old!), this ep...

#43 - Using stitches to journal your state of being
With guest Tamanna Rahman, a textile artist, clothes maker, and psychiatric nurse practitioner who integrates holistic mental health practices into her craft.

She discusses her work, Slow Work Sewing, and where she teaches embroidery workshops that guide students in translati...
