Intentional Sewing, Intentional Living with Kamali Obiagu

We are celebrating JUNETEENTH! All. Month. Long. The theme for our Juneteenth commemoration is Creative Liberation. Inspired by Alexis Pauline Gumbs teaching that "Freedom isn't a secret. It is a practice," the Stitch Please podcast celebrates the many ways that Black women, girls, and femmes continually practice creative ways to get, be, and stay free. We begin the month strong. This episode is all about Intentional Sewing and Intentional Living. Our special guest truly embodies this topic. If you know Kamali Obiagu from Instagram, you know that she radiates confidence in photos where she wears her impeccably stitched creations. Lisa talks with her about what it took to get to that place - discovering a sewing community (and PDF patterns!) and learning to love the body she’s in today. They’ll also dive into why Kamali gave herself a new name when she turned 30 and the importance of self-care. Listen in!
