Description

Getting started can be the hardest part. It doesn't seem to matter if you're a beginner and don't know what you're doing or an old pro that just doesn't have any inspiration.

Episodes mentioned: You gotta start somewhere (Ep. 2), How to be a good beginner (Ep. 3) Become a Zest Friend! Make.Do. is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, your gift may be tax-deductible.
