God one throne to tell me to stick with it and make pottery a career. I am an inspiration because everyday that I wake up now, is a day that doctors told me for so long I would not be living.
How do you stay motivated?To stay motivated I wake up everyday and do what I love, which is pottery. My ceramics business is something that has to be done. I often look repeatedly at pictures of how far I’ve come and allow God to give me the strength to keep fighting and going.
What would you do with the $25,000?By winning the $25,000 I would invest the funds into opening my own shop, where I would be able to teach classes and rent out spaces for other individuals who currently work from home and do not have their own space to work at home.
