    Fantastic Episode, I can so relate…
    Loved this episode and can relate to how Juliette does so many things. I’m the same way, I like to explore everything clay! The interview was done very well and there was a lot packed into this one. @aliveguy_pottery

    This podcast helps stretch you creatively…and find your “voice” in your work.
    I’m 25+ years removed from pottery, but recently dusted off my wheel and am currently searching for my “voice”. My regular job has me in the car for several hours a week so I listen to a lot of podcasts. Shaping your Pottery is very thought provoking and I find that it has me thinking about my work and stretching me creatively. Love it!! Thanks, Nic for all you do!!

    Practical and to the point!
    Such a great reminder that sometimes we get so caught up in selling our product that we put the cart before the horse, so to speak! Really useful tips for connecting with our own unique voice before we try to actually SAY anything to the world about our creations.
