Hi Peggy

Congratulations on getting your book published!!

It sounds like a fascinating read - and I agree that your message would be a good fit with this blog. Please send the articles to me at
Liz (at) morethanweknow (dot) com. It sounds like they will fit with the theme I am planning for January.

Hi Christine,

I loved that part of Beth’s story as well.

As women I think we sometimes hold ourselves back too much, worrying about failing, looking foolish or bothering someone. As Beth’s story continually illustrates - it’s worth those risks because a lot of good things can happen when you make yourself vulnerable by asking for help.

I enjoyed this interview very much. I’ve always had so much respect for jewelry designers that work with metals. I used to create beaded jewelry, but actually creating the jewelery with metals seemed so much more personal - yet difficult.

I absolutely love the part of the interview where Beth submitted photos to a retailer ‘on a whim’ expecting to never hear back. I have found that my very best business relationships have happened the same way. It just goes to show what can manifest if we just take action.

I am a woman entrepreneur as a professional speaker and trainer and I’ve written several articles that I think would be great for this site!!

We women have trouble asking for help - do everything all by ourselves - can’t delegate because no one else can do it as well - and we’re headed straight for burnout or worse.

The articles I’ve written are based on my book that came out this year, Help Is Not a Four-Letter Word: WY Doing It All Is Doing You In published by McGraw Hill.

Please let me know and I’ll send them along! We women entrepreneurs need all the help we can get.

Hi Pam
Great recommendation of her work - it’s one thing to look at photos but another to actually see it in person. She’s a great craftswoman and a great businesswoman.

Beth is such a talented designer - her work incorporates such a wonderful mix of bold and classic styles. I’ve seen her pieces in person, so I know the great attention to detail she puts into everything she creates. Her determination and courage are a source of inspiration to all those who know her. Thanks for featuring her, Liz!

I couldn’t agree more Katie! Beth’s designs are elegant and she has solid business practices. Her interview is a great addition to this series.

I’m a huge fan of Beth’s work. She is very level-headed and realistic about the business side, but her creativity and beautiful craft work will make her business fly. Thank you for interviewing her! I am addicted to her Etsy store and find myself checking in often to see what new designs she’s come up with!
