Episode #81: Bringing Chaos, Play, & Experimentation into your Life with Kristin Powers
Manage episode 285575426 series 2818073
In this episode of #InVinoFab podcast, we were delighted to chat with Kristin Powers. Not only does Kristin have a superhero name, but we think she lives a superhero life. From our conversation about play, experimentation, nature, and creativity, we have no doubt that you will learn so much from her resilience and self-directed learning. Kristin encourages our listeners to develop a taste for failure with practice, like a fine wine or an exotic delicacy. She brings both art and science to her personal and professional life with her works at Coursetune Inc. as the Director of Storytelling and Client Engagement. Kristin’s original paintings can be viewed and purchased, and you can join her Artist’s Insider Circle newsletter at: www.kristinpowers.com
