Many of us are told as children that creativity wasn’t valuable as academic pursuits, and that belief can linger into adulthood, manifesting as imposter syndrome or procrastination.
Founding one of Australia’s most popular jewellery brands from her dining table in Bondi at just 21, Samantha Wills went on to be hailed as “Australia’s biggest export since Vegemite”. Since the closure of her beloved jewellery brand in 2019, Samantha has gone on to be an author, speaker and advocate for independent business owners, creatives and entrepreneurs.
Join Samantha for an honest conversation about her latest book, Marigold’s Magic Stars. She will discuss her entrepreneurial journey, alongside how creativity has played a key role – and how that wasn’t always the case.
This book came from Samantha feeling like her creativity wasn’t a key quality when growing up, that being ‘book-smart’ was prioritised by people/schools around her. It’s a love-letter to anyone that has felt their creativity questioned or like it’s not an important/practical attribute. It’s an invitation to all, to follow the path less taken, to follow your heart, your imagination and your creativity… no matter your age.
Marigold’s Magic Stars is a stunning book – and a perfect Christmas gift for aunties/uncles, parents and grandparents. Or simply a beautiful keepsake to remind yourself to connect with your inner child and embrace the creativity.
