Oh my goodness! Can you share what type of plant you’re holding? It’s gorgeous.

Watching this video for the second time. I really like minimalist jewellery with some bold and feminine pieces ( ie. medium chunky chains). Is okay to mix 2 styles ?

Thanks very much, all this is great advice. I'm starting from scratch with building my Instagram page, so your channel is really helpful!

Amazing ❤❤

Beautiful video ❤❤

i think one can learn this skill and business just doing it online? not in person?

IGCourse! Awesome! Looking forward to it.

🥰

Thanks!

🎉🎉🎉thkszzz for sharing the knoldge

First market this weekend. Ssssgo

Excellent advice. The creative part of it is super fun, but at the end of the day : the goal is to make money.

I love your videos thank you so much for shering. i have a question... Are you using sulfuric acid in the crock pot?

I see the same feeling over and over. I think social media has held even your everyday creator to the highest standards. If anyone lacks confidence in their creation, it needs to be addressed because you are the first customer to your own business.

I’ll have to look through your channel to see if you’ve already touched on this - but I’d be curious to know your take on custom work & whether or not it’s worth the time & energy to accept custom requests … I’ve managed to gain a lovely, loyal band of repeat clients who often want customized or bespoke designs, and although I love working so closely with individual people, it can become very draining/time consuming 😅 I adore my clients (prob not the best business strategy to literally befriend all of my clients, haha… it’s to the point that I get sweet/thoughtful gifts from quite a few of them on holidays & whatnot) but aside from the obvious (that I need to put better boundaries in place & maybe discourage 80 back & forth messages per custom design 🫣) I’d love to hear your input … I either want to have set time frames (slower seasons) in which to accept requests, or completely take them off the table … although I fear the latter may alienate some of my most prolific buyers 🧐 I’m doing this as a single parent of 2 & working from a *tiny* home studio - I’ve been able to support my little 3 person family for 5+ years with this small business, so truly believe I have the right ingredients to become much more successful (financially), but with the added hurdle of ADHD *really* struggle to prioritize & maintain/be consistent with any changes that might help me grow … I’m spreading myself too thin as it is, and this video got me wondering if the decision to completely STOP custom work is coming from an emotional/overwhelmed place. Other designers seem to be a very mixed bag of opinions on this topic ! Thanks so much for your time! I didn’t intend to write a novel 😬

Second😂

First🎉

question 10k after tax and expanses or before?

May I ask you where to get jewelry boxes I can personalize like with my brand name? I congratulate you for your next chapter of your work and life ❤ feels like you r so happy with it .

best of luck flower hope all goes well for you i will miss those legs ha ha haaaaa🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Love the transition! You will always be a jeweller and you will always be a teacher, you will carry that with you forever. Pivoting is a healthy choice. Can't wait to see what the future holds for you. Congratulations Megan!

Wow! It’s so amazing to see brave and creative woman! Best of luck!

It's RiverWind here, I often wondered how you run both business's and be a master of both... it is a natural transformation. I have to admit I felt initial concern that you would be designing less and putting your work out there... but as a Reiki teacher I can say... that you are expanding energetically, now you are putting responsibility on yourself to help others and that doesnt end energetically when your students go off and become successful. So rather than closing your business you are expanding into fractals of business all thriving because you care !!!! Good Luck as always ❤with Love. RW

Field trip to gem store so students can pick out their own cabochons

Pre-rolled sheet metal and and already drawn wire. Sure it's interesting seeing the entire process of melted metal to ingot to rolling mill but only ONCE.

No bellow torches. Nothing more annoying than trying to keep your hands steady soldering while constantly stomping your foot.

Hiya, loved this!!! Is there a follow up? Sooooo interesting because people always like to give advice but actually seeing it makes it more real, and it’s full genuine proof 🙌🙌🙌 looking forward to the rest 🥰xx

You inspire me! 🎇

Thanks for amazing video God bless

Loved this! I’m a photographer, so I do a bit of personal on my story, and every now and then I’ll do a post of myself like “hey! This is me”.

Honestly your awsome regardless of what industry your in, you are bound to succeed!. So congratulations on your new path. Isnt it crazy how powerful fear is whether you use it on yourself or others use it on you. (the world government is great at that). Anyways i won't be able to make it to bali i live in California and im starting a jewelry business( not hand made) how much do you charge for coaching? As a human i have all the fears you have had and even worse, not a lot of money. Just to clarify i need coaching on the business aspect, i know my target audience. Thank you for being yourself and staying true to yourself.

Hummmm...really interesting ! But how do you make sure your collections are all cohesive ? In terms of size, metal, designs, style...Since you outsource, do you have all of that wrinten in a specific document ?

This is bittersweet. But it sounds like your moving forward in a good way.

So interesting ! Do you have a specific name for this collection ? What inspired you to start it ? Your tea cup or mug (loool) is so beautiful ❤

Learning so much from you, thank you 🥰

Learning so much from you ! Thank you 🥰

Im really new to jewellery ! 😊 What is this green table you have on your desk ?

Love the brand kit feature !

Best of luck on your new journey Megan 🎉

Congratulations on making the changes necessary to fit where you are in life right now. It’s very understandable that you struggled with it, but change is good. Onward and upward to you!🎉

Congratulations on feeling like you have clear direction! Follow that🙌. I'm a little sorry you're closing the jewelry biz because I was hoping to buy a simple ring in the future after I lose a bit more weight. My fingers are fat...But anyway...oh well. Other than that, as someone who likes to watch and learn from coaches, I might say it might hurt you a little bit that you don't have a current business while you're coaching, but I don't really think so. Not enough to worry about anyway. Simply because you have had a very successful jewelry business, as you said, so you have credibility in this sphere. You are just changing your focus now, and actually, that is something we entrepreneurs need to know how to do, Because it is scary to change direction. You may actually be teaching us a lot about THAT.😉 My guess is you'll do well in this. And if by some crazy chance you don't do as well as you hope, you'll come up with something else 😁 I think being an entrepreneur is in your DNA.

That sounds awesome !!!!

Hi, I'm still a teacher who just started a jewelry business online, very new to this, I have just one sell. Could you please share the link to your courses? I'm not making myself the jewelry, I'm just reselling.

It’s been said life’s perfect if we only realise it. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed your presence on UA-cam over the years, I hope you stick with it. As a hobbyist your golden nuggets of knowledge have been hugely inspiring. A Bali retreat sounds heavenly, I’ll have to start saving my pennies or take your advice and start selling my jewellery … have fun and frolics … Nick

Congratulations on your new journey! ❤ I've been following you and couple other designers on UA-cam for along time. I started my jewelry business back in June 2021. Not all peaches and cream at first, but I'm thankful that I'm taking the time to grow and not pushing to "sell, sell, sell". First 2 years I did local craft fairs with costume jewelry. This past year I decided to transition to demi-fine jewelry, investing in quality photography, and simply enjoying the process. I've partnered with a store in New York and their online platform to further extend my audience. Learning how to grow my Pinterest page with valuable content. Instagram has been growing slowly as well. But there's nothing like having a conversation face to face with people to grow a business. I found that I was so focused I the commercial side of designing jewelry rather than exploring my creative side. I'm definitely going to focus on bringing out my creativity more this coming year. 🎉

This is an amazing idea! And it came to you right at the perfect time for me as I‘m planning to redirect my entire career towards goldsmithing! I can definitely see myself going to Bali for a jewelry making retreat😆❤️

i am going to be launching my handmade jewelry business along side my reselling business and im kind of worried because this is the first time i have put a part of my creativity into my business and im really not sure if im pricing to high to start out or to low, i have some things made im just hoping they will sell for me.

One can only admire the depth of your personal introspection that brought you to your decision. I always applaud the courage of a person to make such a change after having consolidated the business you've been building for years. Whishing you all the best for the new journey.

teaching requires alot of saliva and patience . best of luck .
