"Do your taxes from the beginning, or else it will lead to a headache in the future! Also, make the things that make you happy and don't compare yourself to others."
“We grew up drinking Abuelita hot chocolate and champurrado, especially during the holidays, without ever knowing much about the origins of these traditions. Through my work, I’ve learned much about the rich history of pre-Columbian cocoa-based beverages across México, like tejate from Oaxaca, popo from Veracruz, pozol from Chiapas and Tabasco, and so much more.”
“When I come across another great local product, my mind map starts to form—and for me that is planting the seed in the community garden. Every product/company is a new row and I don't want a garden. I want a farm.”
"It means investing in sourcing local ingredients, using local packaging, and partnering with the community around you to elevate the status of all people in your surroundings when possible! I couldn't have made it to this point in my life solely alone, I had so many helpers along the way."
"Plan in advance! Christmas in July really means Christmas in July. Get a jumpstart on everything a few months in advance. It will save you time and money, while keeping you from getting overwhelmed."
“My dream is shifting into a more settled studio space to expand my product lines, increase my online following and online sales, teach small classes and continue to find new things to be inspired by.”
“A lot of my designs are inspired by nature and landforms. I often find myself deconstructing the terrain into simple shapes and experimenting with ways I can play with movement. I’ll ask myself questions like, 'How do I see myself moving through the land?' or 'What are the things I hear?' or 'How does something feel in my hand?'“
“I really believe that when you connect with yourself, you can unlock an even deeper connection to your gut feeling and your inner knowing. The more you tune into that and trust that your inner knowing is guiding you towards where you should be headed, the easier it is to say no to things that aren’t aligned and build a life that truly feels good.”
Abril Robbins chats about prioritizing play and joy in making ceramic goods.
“If you are doing work that is meaningful to you, it will always drive your motivation during tough times. I also believe that you don’t need to be perfect to start your business. Start where you are and things will grow.”
