I am finally getting the opportunity to listen to the Podcast. My craft room is now my happy place. After my husband passed away 6 years ago it was difficult to come back in here. I was a quilter and knitter and I made cards by hand ( no cricut). I discovered Dreaming Tree and Dreaming Tree was the push I needed to get back to paper crafting, then a slow return to my other crafts. Leo and Mike have always been so kind and so helpful.
#replay. I can resonate with the crafting due to a loss because i started crafting 4 years ago when my mum was diagnosed with vascular dementia. I wanted something to lose myself with after having a stressful day with her. Didn't realise i was crafty until i started craft and now it's my escape time from all the noise going on around me of daily life.
Leo this is so true and the complete reason I craft. Having lost my dad to cancer and then having battled cancer myself the crafting world has really gotten me through. When I was in quarantine for 1 week with a radiology treatment I crafted the entire week.
Wow, great podcast. I wanted to be a nurse, but the nursing school didn't even look at my application because my score was not where they wanted. I was cut. It was a good and bad thing for me. Bad because I felt I wasn't good enough. It was a major rejection for me. Good because it taught me not to judge a book by its cover. I worked as an aide in a nursing home at that time. I would have been a great nurse but my SAT score told them nothing they needed to know. Thank you Leo for this insight.
Thank you so much for this podcast. It really explained a lot of things about myself. I think I was told so many times that I wasn't good enough that I just went along with it. It's probably only been within the last 20 years that I've actually tried to work on paper crafts, and it feels great when I give something to someone, and they really like it and tell me how nice it is. That being said, lately my depression has taken over and I don't feel like creating anything at all.
Didn’t know you had a podcast. This is perfect, I deal with depression daily. I’ve always wanted a craft room now I have it and it takes me forever to get motivated to enjoy it. I think if I had someone else who enjoyed the same crafting to share it with Would help a great deal. I just go in there and look around and walk out. It SUCKS to be stuck like this. I used to be very industrious and excited to be in that room and make lots of wonderful things from dreaming tree. I can now only dream of what I used to do in hopes that I can regain that. Thank you Leo for this podcast.
My grandfather told me when I was 8 years old that my sister and I were like pups that no one wanted, we should have been taken to the river and drowned when we were born. He also said that I would never be good for anything. I am 67 and and still hear what he said to me, he passed away when I was 11 and I forgave him but I think it has made a difference in my life how I felt about myself, my entire life. I am the one who has tons of stuff to work with but can’t even get started on anything. I am completely stuck and unable to do anything
Wish you were my neighbor, I’d come over and get you started. I say just take ten minutes at a time and give yourself the gift of crafting. It helps me so much in my life.

"It's not about Perfection ... it's about Expression --an extension of myself!" YES!!
