The Crafter: Nora Abousteit

Shownotes

Nora Abousteit grew up in a household of makers and tinkerers. Today, as the founder & CEO of CraftJam, she teaches the U.S. and the world how to craft, reintroducing the digital generation to using their hands. "We are what we make" is her mantra, and wants us all to make more – and consume less.

Join Nora on her journey from Munich to Cairo to New York, discovering her cultural identities, before finding her true calling as part of the maker movement in the U.S. – on episode 11 of the Wunderbar Together podcast.

"Back in the days, crafting was looked down upon. Now, it's t's cool, it's mainstream, it's even political."
