On today's episode of the Craft Industry Alliance podcast, we're talking about paint-by-numbers with my guest Rachel Austen. Rachel has a background in graphic and web design. She founded her paint-by-number kit company - Elle Crée - in 2017 out of her desire to create a nostalgic product from her illustrations that customers could interact with and that would spur their own creativity.  Rachel's company seeks to reduce its impact on the environment by carefully sourcing eco-friendly components that are locally- and USA-made whenever possible. Elle Crée's custom paint colors are mixed from USA-made acrylic, and their kits are assembled with the help of a small staff in Portland, Oregon.  Elle Crée's kits made O Magazine's list of best Made in America products in the summer of 2021. In 2023, Rachel launched successful collaborations with iconic illustrator Mary Engelbreit and Academy Award nominated film studio, LAIKA.  In the past 7 years, Elle Crée has become a premier manufacturer of American-made kits, being sold in over 500 gift shops nationwide.  +++++ This episode is sponsored by The Academy for Virtual Teaching, a community of creative entrepreneurs, building proficient, profitable, and professional online teaching businesses.

Whose game are you playing? Money Not Math 103. Whose financial future and retirement are you planning for? Would you buy the exact same clothes that I wear if I loved them? One of the biggest mistakes I see people make when it comes to building and implementing their retirement plans is doing what their friends, family, or person they had beers with at the bar were doing because it "was working" for them. Don't end up like so many and do something because others are doing it and then kick yourself in the future because it didn't work for you. Don't feel bad if you have already fallen victim to this (I have done it too). We can't change the past, but we can certainly change how we build for the future. "If you don't like something, change it. If you can't change it, change the way you think about it." - Mary Engelbreit #moneyotmath #5stonefinancialgroup #retirement #golf #clothes #money #investments Disclaimer, this content is not legal, tax, or investment advice.

Can you be more authentically present in the place you already are? What's stopping you from embracing the life you have now? The Book of Esther says "Who knows whether you may have come to your position for such a time as this?" The Persian poet Hafiz said "This place where you are now, God circled on a map for you." And, Saint Francis de Sales and Mary Engelbreit say, "Bloom where you are planted!" Imagine it happening to you, by setting roots while sprouting buds.

You want to do well on your standardized test to get in to your target school/program. That's a given. But a high test score can also benefit you in other ways -- perhaps even helping you to land a high-paying job upon graduation. We talk about that in answering the following "mailbag" question submitted by Braden, who asks:"Is it true that consulting firms ask for your GMAT score during the job interview process? If so, is that a reason to take the GMAT instead of the GRE?"In addition to shedding light on whether or not you're likely to be asked for your test score after you're done with school, we explore a couple other important benefits of a high test score including the possibility of earning scholarships. Regardless of which exam you're studying for, it behooves you to do as well as possible. You'll understand why after listening to this episode.

Before she became a household name for her internationally acclaimed illustration work, Mary Engelbreit was a typical young adult finding a way to make a living in St. Louis. In her late teens and early 20s, she worked at a local art store and an ad agency — and then landed a job as an editorial artist for the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. But she was let go during her probation period, as she tells host Sarah Fenske in this episode, after she challenged the fact that men were paid much more than women. Leaving the daily newspaper gave her the time to develop greeting cards, and from there, what would become a wildly popular company bearing her name. Throughout her career, her lifelong love for drawing has remained central. She continues to call St. Louis home, and she talks about her journey and her craft ahead of her appearance at this weekend's BookFest in the Central West End.

Lydia Maria Child: “Over the River and Through the Wood” In the 19th century, Lydia Maria Child’s name was nearly a household word. An outspoken abolitionist, women’s rights supporter, and crusader for Native American rights, Child was also a prolific author. A journalist and editor, she wrote novels and short stories (often using fiction to express her anti-slavery views), poems and children’s books, and domestic manuals for wives and mothers. Her most famous book – which went into 33 printings – was The Frugal Housewife, first published in 1829. Four years later, she published An Appeal in Favor of That Class of Americans Called Africans, believed to be the first anti-slavery book published in the United States. She also served as editor for Harriet Jacobs’s influential 1861 slave narrative, Incidents in the Life of a Slave Girl. In all, Child wrote more than 50 books. Though Child was very prominent in her time, she comes down to us now primarily as the author of a poem originally published as “The New-England Boy’s Song about Thanksgiving Day” – more popularly known to us as “Over the River and Through the Wood.” It was included in her 1844 book, Flowers for Children. The poem features Child’s reminiscences about visiting her grandfather’s house during the cold New England winters. The Poetry Foundation, which credits her with being one of the most important American women writers of the 19th century, provides an outstanding overview of Child’s life and work, writing: “She wrote one of the earliest American historical novels, the first comprehensive history of American slavery, and the first comparative history of women. In addition, she edited the first American children's magazine, compiled an early primer for the freed slaves, and published the first book designed for the elderly.”  Two other excellent introductions to Child can be found at American National Biography Online and the History of American Women website. You can visit Transcendentalists.com to consider Child’s relationship to other New England thinkers and writers of the time. Her work is also included in the Library of Congress’s “American Women” project. Look for her especially in the section titled “Reform Efforts.” If you want to go even further in your exploration of this key 19th-century writer, you might want to read Lori Kenschaft’s book Lydia Maria Child: The Quest for Racial Justice or Carolyn L. Karcher’s book The First Woman in the Republic: A Cultural Biography of Lydia Maria Child. A Lydia Maria Child Reader is available. And believe it or not, you can still buy a copy of The American Frugal Housewife. Not surprisingly, many children’s picture books have taken “Over the River and Through the Wood” as their subject. I am particularly taken with Mary Engelbreit’s version. Another lovely book is Over the River and Through the Wood: An Anthology of Nineteenth-Century American Children’s Poetry. Wherever Thanksgiving Day finds you this year, take a moment to revisit Lydia Maria Child’s classic poem celebrating the holiday. Visit thestoryweb.com/child for links to all these resources. Listen now as I read Lydia Maria Child’s 1844 poem “The New-England Boy’s Song about Thanksgiving Day.” The New-England Boy's Song about Thanksgiving Day BY LYDIA MARIA CHILD   Over the river, and through the wood,     To grandfather's house we go;         The horse knows the way,         To carry the sleigh,     Through the white and drifted snow.   Over the river, and through the wood,     To grandfather's house away!         We would not stop         For doll or top,     For 't is Thanksgiving day.   Over the river, and through the wood,     Oh, how the wind does blow!         It stings the toes,         And bites the nose,     As over the ground we go.   Over the river, and through the wood,     With a clear blue winter sky,         The dogs do bark,         And children hark,     As we go jingling by.   Over the river, and through the wood,     To have a first-rate play —         Hear the bells ring         Ting a ling ding,     Hurra for Thanksgiving day!   Over the river, and through the wood —     No matter for winds that blow;         Or if we get         The sleigh upset,     Into a bank of snow.   Over the river, and through the wood,     To see little John and Ann;         We will kiss them all,         And play snow-ball,     And stay as long as we can.   Over the river, and through the wood,     Trot fast, my dapple grey!         Spring over the ground,         Like a hunting hound,     For 't is Thanksgiving day!   Over the river, and through the wood,     And straight through the barn-yard gate;         We seem to go         Extremely slow,     It is so hard to wait.   Over the river, and through the wood,     Old Jowler hears our bells;         He shakes his pow,         With a loud bow wow,     And thus the news he tells.   Over the river, and through the wood —     When grandmother sees us come,         She will say, Oh dear,         The children are here,     Bring a pie for every one.   Over the river, and through the wood —     Now grandmother's cap I spy!         Hurra for the fun!         Is the pudding done?     Hurra for the pumpkin pie!  

The Priority team talks mantras, models, and motivation! Caitie shares some phrases she uses to gain perspective and clarity about her role. Meanwhile, Max prefers the term “theme” over “mantra.” Then again, he also confuses Mary Engelbreit and Madeleine L’Engle, so maybe he’s not the best authority. What is your mantra? Whether it’s “What would Jesus do?” or “What’s the Next Action?” the words we choose to focus our attention on matter. As usual, there isn’t a single answer for everyone. Worse, there’s not even a single answer for anyone: any theme or motto that works will lead us to outgrow it. “Picture of a boat”-style inspiration is always fleeting. Nothing is permanent . . . except maybe that tattoo of your 23-year-old self’s motto.
