JP Flintoff’s TEDx Talk, Conversations That Change Everything

| Betsy

While I’m putting together some longer posts on the three parts of craftivism, donation, beautification, and notification, I wanted to share with you a very lovely talk with the very lovely JP Flintoff, called Conversations That Change Everything.

In the words of JP himself, the talk is about “what great things we can all achieve just by talking, and listening, better.”

So, grab yourself a cup of tea and do yourself a favor and watch this video up above. Because we all can achieve great things, together.

JP Flintoff’s How to Change the World!

| Betsy

First off, thanks to Sarah of the Craftivist Collective, whose Facebook post tipped me off to this this morning. When I was in London a year or so ago, I had the change to meet JP Flintoff in person, who Sarah told me was “lovely.” And, after we had coffee (thanks for the cuppa, JP!), I fully concurred.

I was lucky enough to receive a copy of Sew Your Own for free, so this morning I bought a copy of his new book, How to Change the World, published by the wonderful The School of Life in London.

Here’s a lovely clip of JP talking about how you can change the world, which has made me excited to read the book!

The video clip is from here.

Now go start changin’ the world or something, y’hear?
