Blacksmithing, Community, and Betting on Yourself with Jordan & Rachel Jackson

In this episode, Jamie visits Night Owl Iron Works, a blacksmithing and leather working studio, gallery, and gathering space in Rutherfordton, NC, to talk with co-owners and partners Jordan and Rachel about what it takes to grow a craft business from a backyard shed to a building they now own in downtown.

This is an open, honest conversation about betting on yourself when it doesn't make sense on paper, learning to ask for help, and building a life around craft and community.

If you've ever wondered whether you're a real artist, questioned whether you can responsibly take a big risk, or needed a reminder that you don't have to build your business alone,this episode is for you.
