129. Quilterpreneur Retreat

Author: Elizabeth Chappell October 13, 2023 Duration: 29:17

I recently hosted the first Quilterpreneur Retreat, with Liza Taylor, for my alumni. We held the retreat in beautiful Midway, Utah. Speakers from both inside and outside the quilting industry spoke and we were able to meet and network with many quilters in the industry. On the podcast, the retreat attendees share what they learned and their most favorite takeaways from the weekend retreat. Interacting with, getting to know and supporting those in your business community is so important! Hear all about it and why investing in yourself, making connections and gaining friendships with people who have similar goals and are rooting for you is so beneficial to your personal and business growth.  Tune in for more on episode 129 of the Craft to Career Podcast.

Elizabeth Chappell hosts Craft to Career, a space for makers who feel that persistent pull to build something more from their creative work. It’s for the person at their kitchen table, surrounded by their craft, wondering how to bridge the gap between a passionate hobby and a sustainable livelihood. Each episode tackles the real, often unglamorous, questions that arise when you decide to take that leap. You’ll hear practical conversations about defining your niche, setting prices that respect your time, and navigating the complexities of marketing without losing your authentic voice. The focus extends beyond just sales, exploring how to structure your days, maintain creative energy, and build a community around your work, particularly through platforms like Instagram. This podcast operates on the belief that success is a personal definition, not a one-size-fits-all destination. It’s about translating the skill in your hands into a viable, fulfilling path, offering both tactical advice and the necessary encouragement for the journey. Tune in for honest discussions that replace vague inspiration with actionable steps, all aimed at helping you answer that foundational question for yourself.
