Welcome back to The Pin Tool Podcast, where we dive deep into the craft, philosophy, and business of making pottery that matters. I’m your host, Alford Wayman, and today, we’re bringing together the wisdom of the 12 Steps and The Artist’s Way —applying them directly to the life of an artist, a maker, and a business owner. We’ll talk with my A.I. bot Project Planner, Amelia, about how to overcome creative blocks by believing your purpose and finding your identity. Whether you’re at the wheel, in the studio, or just reflecting on your creative journey, this episode will give you practical steps to push forward with confidence and purpose.
So grab your pin tool, settle in, and let’s shape something together—starting with the mindset that fuels it all. Let’s dive in!
