My Crafting Life

My Crafting Life with Dom & Keith Brymer Jones

Ep. 2
•

Keith Brymer Jones reveals how he unlocked his craft by reframing problems as opportunities. From studio potter to global markets and The Great Pottery Throw Down, Keith has always found a way—harnessing the power of his dyslexic brain, staying agile to attract name brands, and putting himself out there (even if it means wearing a pair of tights). He respects his craft and the lessons it has taught him throughout his life. He also reveals one of the biggest lessons of his career—one that helped him release the emotional weight of his work to truly succeed in sales. Whether you're a maker, an entrepreneur, or simply looking for a fresh perspective, this episode will change how you tackle obstacles—and unlock new possibilities.
