Скачать или смотреть Being Tea Conversations: Tony Tellin of A.Tellin.Co

Connection to creativity and practice is the theme of our special expanded series of Being Tea Conversations for the month of April. Featuring friends who are IN IT right now - crafting, creating, maintaining the space of a nurturing practice to heal. In a time when we are all so very cut off from each other due to the coronavirus crisis, our human need to connect and to tell stories is what keeps us grounded.

In this episode, my guest shares how sometimes, you gotta build the change you want to see yourself.

He is the luminary Tony Tellin - a master blender and tea buyer who's spent 20+ years of his adult life learning the trade as a leading member of Tazo, then Steven Smith Teamaker, and now working on his very own family-run project: A.Tellin.Co.

Tony and I discuss the inspiration for his work as an innovative tea blender, his mentors and how we move from apprentice to flying solo, the realities of learning on the fly, maintaining integrity and honesty in personal values, and how on Earth we wrap our heads and hearts around this very dire situation that threatens all of us, no matter our station in life or perceived safety net. It's a moving, open and very real conversation, as only Tony could share.
