Start Where You Are: Teaching, Imperfection, and Self-Publishing with Tori McElwain

I’m so excited to share this conversation with my friend and fellow coach, quilter, and teacher, Tori McElwain. Tori and I talk about the real-life journey of building a creative business while juggling motherhood, military life, and burnout—and why she chose self-publishing to get her book Workshops Unleashed out into the world. Tori’s story is such a powerful reminder that you don’t need perfect gear or a polished plan to start teaching online. We dive into creating safe spaces for students to make mistakes, how to handle big personalities in workshops, and what it really takes to build a sustainable creative business. If you’ve ever frozen up in front of a camera or doubted your ability to write, teach, or lead, this episode will inspire you to start where you are, use what you have, and trust that your imperfect action matters.→ If you want the chance to ask questions live with Tori, she is our guest expert at the Academy for Virtual Teaching on August 20th at 12pm/noon eastern. Academy membership is free and all are invited to attend this casual conversation and Q&A.Learn more about The Academy for Virtual Teaching here.Let's Connect!Join The Academy for Virtual TeachingInstagramFacebook>> Register for the FREE webinar: Make an Effective Promotional Video in 3 Easy Steps!
