In this episode, I talk a bit about why I chose Alice in Wonderland as a story to re-tell. 

This year, I am re-telling the Alice in Wonderland story through a music and dance video web series that unfolds in the woods of Northern California. Come with me on this journey as Alice explores reality, truth and beauty. This is a the narration for the 90 second trailer of Down The Rabbit Hole - A Musical Journey Based on Alice in Wonderland

This weeks talk was inspired by a quote I saw that referred to "whole hearted people living from a deep sense of worthiness."  For some reason, these words move me deeply!

In this week's podcast, I had the pleasure of interviewing Jen Laursen, a teaching artist and leatherworker based in the Bay Area of California. Jen makes leather accessories by hand, inspired by leatherwork from Mexico and fashion and artwork from the American art deco and 1970's periods. She taught herself (and is still learning!) via old manuals, YouTube videos, and her own trial and error process.   She teaches private lessons and group workshops at Workshop SF in San Francisco and at Handcraft Studio School in El Cerrito as well as in her home studio.  I first encountered Jen's work at a local store in our town. I went on to follow her Instagram account and fell in love with her work and her spirit! Enjoy the interview.
