Join your hosts Aaronica B. Cole, the maker behind The Needle and the Belle and Julian Collins of Julian Creates in this weekly podcast as we deep dive into crafting, living, and creating with audacity.
In this week’s episode, Aaronica and Julian sip some real tea about self-care, creativity, and community. Julian opens up about losing his voice—literally—and how his work setup might be to blame. Aaronica encourages him to prioritize his health (because creativity only thrives when we do).
The convo heats up as Julian shares his latest passions: event sewing, African recipes, and his beloved Thermomix—yes, there’s even talk of a 7-Up cake demo! But it’s not all sugar and spice—they also reflect on how SNAP cuts and shrinking community ties are impacting families this holiday season. It’s a cozy, candid chat about finding your voice, feeding your soul, and rebuilding connection one stitch at a time.
