This is the Potterscast, a podcast home for potters everywhere. It's a community of potters

dedicated to grow their business. We're picking up where the art degree ends. I'm your host, Paul Blaze.

Episode number 1,154 of The Potter's cast has just begun.

Oh man.

I typically record these intros, outtros, these types of things for each episode.

The day before each episode, so this is a Thursday episode, so this would be recorded on a Wednesday,

Tuesday's episodes, usually recorded on a Monday, and that's standard. That's kind of the standard

way that I do things. And so I just want you to know, I've been kind of holding off on on saying a few things.

And so I'm pretty stoked to be able to say that by next week, I think it should be like

the Tuesday episode, I should be able to have some info to share with you about some kind of

cool things that are going on in my wife's in my life.

So I'm pretty stoked about that.

In the meantime, I'm pretty stoked about our guest today.

We've got Kelsey Schroeder coming on the show, and she's in South Dakota, and she's a potter who is building her business. So we have a great conversation

about her journey into ceramics, but then we jump into the ideas of like some kind of her

business acumen about how she is building her work, not just her work, but her business portion of her ceramic

endeavors. And it's really fascinating. So I'm hoping that you enjoy this conversation. So let's jump

into this conversation that I had with Kelsey Schroeder right after this word from our sponsor.

One of the great classes that we had over at the pottersclass.com is the class by

John Schmidt, who teaches us how to make commercial glazes as if they were your own glazes.

And it's a great class that dives into a bunch of techniques that he uses to make them unique. And you can get that class

right now for 50% off by using the code 50 John Schmidt. So check it out over at the pottersclass.com.
