Featured Journey

Jane Bowyer, April 2022

Check out our chat with the creative wizard that is Jane Bowyer aka A Studio Called Jane. She’s a Designer, Illustrator and Founder of the awesome Women in Print. In this interview, Jane shares how she’s learning to sit with her negative thoughts (and not buy into their BS!), how she prefers to put her ‘trust in the journey’, rather than make a rigid plan, and why her one-woman studio isn’t always a one-woman show.
