There are podcast episodes that leave you with a few helpful tips… and then there are episodes that leave you rethinking your whole business (in the best possible way).My conversation with money mentor, author, and iconic chill-business queen Denise Duffield-Thomas was one of those.From the importance of personal branding to letting go of unnecessary stress (yes, even ugly cross-stitch projects), Denise shared her honest, hilarious, and refreshingly practical take on what it really means to build a successful, chilled business.About Denise:She helps entrepreneurs like you charge premium prices, release the fear of money and create First Class lives. Her books Lucky Bitch, Get Rich, Lucky Bitch, and her newest Chill and Prosper https://www.denisedt.com/prosper give a fresh and funny roadmap to living a life of abundance without burnout.Her Money Bootcamp https://www.denisedt.com/offer has helped over 8,500 students from all around the world.She's a lazy introvert, a Hay House author and an unbusy mother of 3. She owns a rose farm and lives by the beach in sunny Australia.WATCH, READ & CONNECTWatch on YouTube: https://youtu.be/EZJ94c3enLURead on the Blog: https://whitedeer.com.au/ep207/WORK WITH DENISE:Website: www.denisedt.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/denisedt/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/denisedtWORK WITH JACQUI:// DIY Design My Biz: The best course for business owners DIYing their own brand and graphics in Canva.

A couple of years ago I received three pieces of embroidery that used to be the chest pieces of Palestinian dresses. The Palestinian dress is called a 'thob' in Arabic. The person who gave them to me said she had received them from an Israeli woman who had said: “these were from the people who used to live here” As she didn't know what to do with them, she handed them to me. I also didn't know what was the best thing to do so I asked a Palestinian friend who is a designer and knowledgeable about Palestinian heritage. She then referred me to the Palestinian Heritage Museum in Jerusalem where I met with Bahaa Jubeh, the curator.In the first episode we took a tour of the ground floor of the museum, focused on all kinds of heritage objects such as pottery, straw items, copper pots, metal objects and agricultural tools. In this second episode the tour takes us to the upper floor of the museum where we focus on the history of the traditional Palestinian thobs and tatreez, the dresses with embroidery.More information about the Palestinian Heritage Museum:https://dartifl.org/Connect to Stories from Palestine on social media, sign up for the newsletter, read more about traveling to Palestine and if you can, please support the podcast on Ko-fi.

The boys have started Dry July early, but are unlikely to keep it up for long, with a costume party on the horizon. We heard your feedback on hobbies, and now Pockets might have to cross stitch a butthole?! Chris might've gotten rid of the stye, but now his back and knees are playing up - and no, not because of that. We ponder what our beige flags are - the strange things about us that make us cute little weirdos. And boy do we have an announcement on our Gaytor community.

“I'm just an old fashioned lady.  Been around a long time.”  That's how Elsie Coleman introduced herself to me.  I had the privilege of going to Elsie's home to interview this centenarian and seeing her beautiful quilts.  She continues to make amazing quilts. Newspaper articles about Elsie in 1995 and 1999 Quilt that was raffled in 2012 and info on it Some of her quilts Quilt that her Aunt Ella made.  Elsie is pointing out the flower that was made from her childhood clothing. Cross Stitch that she needs to quilt yet The first quilt she used fabric paint and then quilted around.  The second quilt shows her amazing hand quilting. The tag is on her quilt with nine patches. Elsie embroidered the angles and then put them in a quilt. I was amazed that this quilt was pieced! This Cross Stitched and Hand Quilted quilt Elsie made for her sister.

In this episode, I share some pros and cons of stitching small and large designs and when you might choose each. You can find the show notes for today's episode here: https://hannahhandmakes.com/blogs/podcast/small-vs-large-cross-stitch-designs/

Ever been on a long flight and stumbled upon a passion that would redefine your life? That's exactly what happened to our guest, Jamie Chalmers, also known as MrXStitch. He discovered the craft of cross-stitching mid-flight, finding it meditative and calming. He turned his craft into a career, becoming a celebrated figure in the world of needlework. His unique, tangible designs offer an alternative to the fleeting nature of social media scrolling, proving that crafting can bring immense satisfaction and joy.Cross stitching is often stereotyped as an 'old lady' hobby, but Jamie, the tattooed 'gangster of cross stitching', is here to challenge those assumptions. He's not just about breaking the mold, Jamie is also about promoting and expanding this art form, and he's doing it in his own unique way. He even dabbled in playing Santa Claus, overcoming his initial discomfort to spread holiday magic. His story is about stepping out of your comfort zone and finding joy in the unexpected.Jamie's journey didn't just involve a shift in craft, but a shift in his career path entirely. He left his corporate job to pursue his passion, finding success in the creative industry. His story is a testament to the fact that 'enough' money varies for each individual. The episode wouldn't be complete without adding a touch of humor, as we test Jamie's movie trivia knowledge, making for an entertaining end to our chat. We wrap up the episode by emphasizing the importance of play, encouraging everyone to explore new hobbies and activities. So, sit back and enjoy this exciting journey of creativity, humor, and play with MrXStitch.Find Jamie @MrXStitch on Instagram or https://xstitchmag.com/ (00:18) Cross StitchMrXStitch shares his love for the meditative craft and the satisfaction of creating something tangible.(07:59) Benefits of Gangster Cross StitchingBreaking stereotypes and promoting creativity through cross stitching, embracing passions, and curating textile art.(11:10) Challenging Gender Stereotypes in Cross-StitchChallenging gender norms in cross stitching, embracing passions, versatility of the art form, and the importance of play.(20:43) The Profound Magic of Playing SantaJamie embraces Santa's role, using alter egos like MrXStitch, finding joy in bringing magic to families.(29:15) Layered Career, Financial FreedomA cross-stitch designer left his corporate job to pursue his passion, discussing ad revenue, subscriptions, and workshops, and the concept of "enough" money.Don't miss this opportunity to dive into the world of cross-stitch with us!Support the showSupport the Playful Humans mission to help adults rediscover the power of play: Subscribe to the YouTube channel Subscribe to the Podcast Book a playshop for your team Support our sponsors
