~My Journey as a Jewelry Artist This book is for artists, crafters, makers, vendors, entrepreneurs and small biz owners. It offers advice and tips for those trying to make something... and then sell that thing... online or in person. I’m sharing 22 years worth of experience (among successes and failures) in the hopes that my jewelry journey can inspire your journey. I discuss the ways that I not only survived but thrived amongst the highs and lows of what came my way both personally, and with the challenges of navigating life in the 21st century. I'm offering lots of practical, timely, real world ideas and steps, sprinkled with some magic and some moon-manifesting. Having made so many moon pieces of jewelry through the years, I thought it was time to pay attention to what was coming through, to live more in sync with the phases of the moon. Doing so has helped me gain huge strides. It's also taken so many moons to learn all of this, and I felt compelled to share some of the wisdom I've gained, with you.

(After spending some time connecting with the moon last night!;) I wasn’t quite sure what to expect from it, but I was so inspired!! It was pretty much exactly the “REAL woman LIVING life in a difficult world”, story that I needed to hear right now. I wanted to thank you for so openly sharing your story. Being a bit of an introvert myself, I was inspired, reading how you pressed forward in growing your business, and getting out of your comfort zone. I loved when you talked about doing the best you could with what you had! Throughout your whole story! I love that you are a successful business woman, plus a wife and mother at the same time.In a world where there is such short attention span, and instant gratification, I appreciated reading about your apprenticeship, and the dedication and time put into learning and perfecting your craft.After reading your book I understand more, the energy that goes into your stunning work, and why I love it so much!! Thank you for creating such beautiful, fierce, magical, wearable art! Here’s to you, to the community, and the future!" -Whitney W
