The Creative JuggleJoy Podcast: From Passion to Profit

In this reflective blog post, Delores looks back on her conversation with Kristen Chamberlain of City Mouse Art. Kristen explains how she turned a lay‑off into an opportunity to build a handmade digital art business, shares the importance of community support and reveals why every piece she creates is intentionally crafted without AI. It’s a nurturing reminder that slow, steady steps can lead to beautiful results.

In this episode of Creative Juggle Joy, I chat with KeriAnne Daniels, the founder of Kind Words Count, about how her brand blossomed from love, friendship, and one simple creative act that grew into something far bigger.

This Mother’s Day, we’re diving into what it really looks like to juggle motherhood and creative work — the beauty, the burnout, and everything in between. A heartfelt conversation between co-hosts Kaylie and Delores that honours the women doing it all.

With 2025's rising tariffs, many handmade artists are struggling to keep going. This reflection shares encouragement and practical steps for creatives—especially those later in life—who are learning to pivot without giving up on their passion.
