The Thousand Tiny Turns That Shape a Life with Maker, Teacher, and Shop Owner Jen Palacio

Show Description (also the podcast Intro):

Hello and welcome to the BOSFilipinos podcast. I'm your host, Trish Fontanilla.

Each episode, we celebrate Filipino and Filipino American culture, identity, and community in greater Boston.

Today's guest is Jen Palacio, owner of Tiny Turns Paperie! She also has an art practice called Just Enough Nonsense, and teaches at some of our local colleges around the city. In this episode, we trace the winding path from her Filipino American upbringing in Connecticut to becoming a beloved small-business owner in Somerville.

She talks about discovering art through her grandmother, detouring into the corporate world, and eventually finding her way back to creativity through letterpress. This episode is a celebration of the thousand tiny turns that shape a life.

I'm so excited for you all to get to know her. Enjoy!
