💡 WHO AM I?

G'day, I'm Jess!
I started my craft business Epheriell.com as a hobby in 2008 - and in 2010 I went full-time.
I've been 100% self-employed ever since.
In 2013 I also started createandthrive.com to help other makers turn their handmade hobby into a thriving business.
I also love to learn and talk about happiness, health, and how to design a life you love.
