The APD Podcast: In Conversation with Shannon Downey

“It is vital that they [an audience] read the post and then participate in the conversation for me to feel like that piece was successful.”
— Shannon Downey
Shownotes:
Shannon Downey is known in her business and online as Bad Ass Cross Stitch. Shannon is an artist, craftivist, community builder, and general instigator which is a word I love and we explore pretty early on. She was as passionate and engaging in this conversation as I hoped. I love that moment when you find someone to be exactly as they appear to be online.
Things we reference in our conversation:
- Previous episode with Betsy Greer
- Badass HERstory
- Boys Will be held accountable for their actions embroidery (via Vogue press piece)
- Stone Wall was a riot
“I am a very action-oriented person, I like results, I like to do things, I like people moving with me,”
