Clay-Zy Day Studio | Samantha Jackson

***"...*mindfulness of silence in your own moment.*"*** In this episode we’re joined by Samantha Jackson, founder of Clay-Zy Day Studio in Nantwich, a creative space where people can discover pottery, switch off from everyday pressures and enjoy making something with their own hands. Samantha shares how pottery became a way to escape the stresses of a demanding career and how a small studio grew into a welcoming community where people of all ages and abilities can explore their creativity. From hand-building and wheel throwing to making pottery more affordable and accessible, Samantha explains why the experience is about so much more than the finished pot. We talk about the impact of working with clay on mental wellbeing, the friendships that develop around the table, and the people who have discovered new skills and confidence despite believing they couldn't do it. Samantha also shares how the Nantwich community has helped her business grow and her ambitions to take clay-based activities into schools, care homes and community groups. This is a conversation about creativity, connection, community and the importance of taking time for yourself. It’s a reminder that you don't have to be an artist to give something new a go, and that sometimes, switching off from the world and getting your hands dirty can make all the difference.
