#28 You CAN do all the things, but not at the same time!
12/28/23 • 47 min
In this episode, I talk about that space between. Like the time between Christmas and New Year’s or the space between the end of one way of living and the beginning of another and how that space, that pause, can be beautiful and uncomfortable at the same time.
I also share about our move and where we are now physically and emotionally. And about having a great deal of grace with ourselves.
And did I manifest a SLLLOOOOWWW electric hookup?
It’s a good question.
I also share my thoughts for sewing workshops in the new year, my guest appearance on the Sew and So podcast, a new online show I’m putting together, and in mid-January a free workshop to create our intentions for a Vibrant Year!
And finally...I have decided to ground myself back into my making by taking a course on custom sewing!
Sometimes being a beginner again is just what we need to settle back into the next layer of our artistry! I am signed up for Brooks Ann Camper’s Skirt Skills (doors open Dec 30th and class starts January 10th) and I am excited to start it with fresh eyes and see where her methods take me! Want to join me? See all the details here.
Take a listen!

#27 - Trusting in the journey, carefully planting your next step & bloody roosters
{w/ Megan Frey}
In this episode I caught up with my dear friend Megan Frey just days before she embarks on her next voyage.
12 or so years ago, I was working at a natural food co-op and Megan hired on to earn some cash for her next adventure. She waltzed in, this tall blond, glowing human with a gorgeous accent and I KNEW we were already friends. And we were.
For this recording I caught up with Megan on the island of Maui (gah! online not, sadly, in person!) where she’s been resting on the land, the ocean ever in view.
For the last decade, Megan has been sailing the world, chasing her dream.
I think of her like a graceful sea bird. Most at home in the winds and water, but from time to time, landing on shore, wings spread and eyes closed, spent and ready to be held by the earth.
On our show, she shares a wee bit of her story; the first place that comes to mind that she’d like to revisit in this wide world she’s criss-crossed by sea, how she chose herself and stepped off a path that was once a dream and what she’s learned about trust and the journey.
In her words...
“And a lot of that really, for me, right now in my life means creating more space for myself. However that looks, whatever feels good for Megan to do, or not to do, even more so, even more importantly, actually, is to do less.
It’s really being honest and checking in with yourself every day. Not just because one day you make this decision and then you, yep, this is the one, and then you just write it out.
That, to me, doesn’t feel authentic either to who I am.
You have to put effort into yourself every day. You can’t just check the box, sign the subscription, or membership, pay for it, and it’s over. This one isn’t signing up for that subscription.”
Take a listen! You’ll be glad you did.

#29 - Getting Your Mojo back!
Being a beginner at something you already know, seems counterintuitive. But when I was looking to deepen my artistry, reconnect to my mojo, and embrace new ways to do what I love doing, being a beginner was just what I needed.
Learning anew gave me a deeper connection to my craft and a mindset that allows for more curious experimentation rather than rushing to the end product. I highly recommend it!
Give it a listen!

Tina: Hello friends, you are listening to the IncanTube podcast and today on this week between the winter holidays, so for me that's the solstice and Christmas and then New Year's Eve and New Year's Day, on this week between this sort of limbo land, this sort of cozy, settled in land, I want to talk about being in limbo and how it feels to be in a space that is not.
Normal, right? This unsettled space between what was and what will be. And I also want to share with you t
