In this episode, I chat with my pal and very first guest, Keeley Campbell, to discuss our experiences as vendors at markets. We talk about the challenges and joys of participating in markets, including the long hours, the need to be on and engaging with customers, and the unique interactions with fellow vendors. We also touch on the importance of finding a balance between being informative and not overwhelming customers, and the importance of embracing one's own cringiness and authenticity. We also discuss the importance of embracing oneself, living authentically and the benefits of spending time in nature, particularly through activities like cold plunges. Keels shares her personal experience with cold plunging and how it helps her gain perspective and find joy in life. We emphasize the need to prioritize mental health and find activities that bring happiness and silliness. Keels also mentions upcoming events and shares her Instagram handles for those interested in learning more about her work and personal life.
