Reskillience Live Podcast – The Art of Release. Catie Payne with guests Mara Ripani & Natasha Morgan
Description
Three local women. Two new books. One conversation.
Local writer, artist and podcaster Catie Payne brings her podcast Reskillience to the stage for a live recording, joined by two fellow locals: Mara Ripani, author of The Baker's Percentage, and Natasha Morgan, author of The Productive Garden Companion.
Pull up a chair and listen in as these three friends and neighbours talk honestly about the creative life – the thrill of holding your book for the first time, the agony of knowing when to let go and the joy of sharing knowledge right where you live.
This is a rare chance to witness a podcast being made – raw, real and local.
Come listen, come learn.
