Tiny and Snail - Creating Cards With a Mission
Listen now
Description
Leah Nixon and Grace Nixon Peterson are a powerful duo - two sisters that create greeting cards rich with meaning.  The word "card" seems too simple - their artwork, the thoughtfulness of every word, their passion about writing to each other by hand - all these come together to create one-of-a-kind snail mail. We chat about the themes behind their annual collections, their personal stories that play hugely into their lives today, and the remarkable power of the written word. Plus, we dip into creating a business around your passion, and how interests, mission, and joy all intersect to form the perfect business.
