Season 5, Episode 5: What gives you joy? with Laura Brand.

“ The 20s for me became a sort of a bit of a blur, great on so many levels…But gosh I think who actually was that person? I am not sure, that was a performance. But also probably what we needed. The ego was playing a big part in us discovering ourselves. ”

This week, Caggie is joined by Laura Brand, illustrator and author of the Joy Journal. Laura’s first book - a homemade crafts guide for children - came out over lockdown, and her second book around crafts for adults has just been released, ‘The Joy Journal for Grown Ups’. Caggie and Laura talk about the importance of play and crafts as a tool for mindfulness. They also discuss Laura's initiation into motherhood, shapeshifting through their twenties, and how our Saturn Return creates an opportunity for us to reclaim our true authentic self.
