Tending a Handmade Life and Spirit Guided Intuitive Craft with Kathy Van Kleeck

In this technically challenged episode, I had the honor of speaking with Kathy Van Kleeck.  We talk about her transition from successful jewelry designer to slowing down and moving into her vision of "Tending a Handmade Life", how she allows her intuition and spirit to guide her as she creates, how experimentation plays a big role in her craft, and so so much more. I think this is a really valuable conversation for any maker. Kathy consider herself a Maker. Her business and life revolve around the notion of “Tending a Handmade Life.” She create a wide range of wares in a variety of mediums: fine silver, crystal and gemstone jewelry and Talismans for adorning and spiritual comfort, botanical print silk scarves overdyed with her own homegrown indigo, intuitive blends of perfumes and incense, pottery hand-built with wild clay from her land and fired in a wood kiln. Each piece is spirit guided, heart-centered and grounding, with the goal of helping others in tending a handmade and well-considered life.
