“Creativity is the spark inside. Inside all of us. It is always there, always ready to answer our call—if we'll just rise up and invite it in.”
“It can feel really soothing and regulating to my nervous system to work on my glass. Living with intention, for me, means consciously understanding what I'm doing and why I'm doing it. I have to be at home inside of myself, so some of the rituals in my regular life—like walking barefoot through the forest or showering outside—keep that more wild spirit alive. That's a major part of my process.” —Tammy Hudgeon
