One question I get asked a lot is, how do you do it all?

How are you filming YouTube videos, writing blog posts, recording a podcast, putting together the Maker’s Box, showing up inside the community, prepping for events, and still keeping everything moving?

In today’s episode, I’m sharing a real behind-the-scenes look at what that actually looks like for me. I’m talking about the moving pieces, the mental load, the different hats I wear, what helps me stay organized, and the honest truth about the weeks when it all feels a little heavier.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re carrying a lot and just trying to keep all the balls in the air, I hope this episode makes you feel a little less alone.

You can find more of what I’m working on over on YouTube, Instagram, and Facebook.

Thank you for being here!

There are some changes coming to the Maker’s Box… and while I’m not sharing everything just yet, it felt like the right time to start letting you in a little behind the scenes.

With the two-year anniversary coming up, I’ve been reflecting on where the Maker’s Box started, how it’s grown, and what I want this next year to look like. In this episode, I’m sharing a little bit of that journey, along with a few things I’ve been working on behind the scenes—including opening up the vault of past designs, new curated paint bundles, and a peek at what’s coming next.

I’m also talking about a three-day workshop I’ve been dreaming up—something hands-on where you can actually create with me and explore all the possibilities with the products you already love.

If you’ve been part of the Maker’s Box, are curious about it, or just love all things vintage, creative, and DIY… this episode is for you.

In today’s episode of Rescued & Upcycled, I’m sharing the story behind Antique Acres — one of my favorite vintage events of the year, and the only vendor event I still choose to do.

I’m talking about what makes Antique Acres so special, how it all started, why this event feels so different than the many shows I used to do, and how this season of life and business has taught me to simplify, pivot, and hold onto the parts that still bring me joy.

If you’ve ever outgrown something you once loved… or found yourself craving a slower, more meaningful way of creating and living… I think this episode will really resonate with you.

In this episode, I’m sharing:

• what Antique Acres is and why people love it
• my old life of constantly being on the road doing vendor events
• why I stepped away from most shows
• why Antique Acres is the one I still say yes to
• and how this event still fills my creative cup in the best way

If you love vintage finds, decorating, collected spaces, and the heart behind creative living, I’m so glad you’re here.
