INSPIRING FOUNDER STORIES

The Artisan Founder Podcast brings you closer to the voices shaping the world of independent brands.

Each episode is a conversation with inspiring founders—some at the start of their journey, others with decades of experience. Whether discussing the challenges of growing a business or the joy of working with their hands, these are stories worth listening to.

THE ARTISAN FOUNDER JOURNAL

INSPIRING FOUNDER STORIES

Beyond the handmade products themselves, we believe the stories behind them are just as important. The Artisan Journal is where we uncover the journeys, inspirations, and challenges of the makers we feature.

From traditional techniques passed through generations to modern brands redefining craftsmanship, our Journal is a place to pause, read, and appreciate the artistry behind the goods we choose to bring into our lives.
