472 - Jan Larson - Balancing Chaos

Jan Marie Larson is a silversmith. She makes sterling silver thimbles and sewing tools one-at-a-time by hand. Her journey from Iowa farmer's daughter to Fashion Designer/custom tailor to missionary in Africa to Organic Crop Inspector (while being a mother of 4) all culminated with an older neighbor calling up and saying: "I need help, you can learn this". Jan Agreed. She learned silversmithing.
