It's my pleasure to kick start the second season with my dear friend Makkala Rose, a well known tattoo artist and a talented painter! A slight change of direction this season with the introduction of keynote themes and the removal of all the final questions. Makkala's keynote theme this week is resilience, something that is prevalent throughout her journey. As per usual fashion, we flow through her key turning points in life.
We start by briefly touching on being bullied at school before entering the tattooing story. From tattooing potatoes and her best friends legs to tattooing in New York and Oxford for a lengthy time period. Makkala also shares the impacts of losing her father to suicide and later on, losing herself before having to start over again. It was a privilege to have had this awesome yarn with Makkala and to be able to share her amazing journey and lessons in life.
Have a look at her amazing work here on Instagram and her shop for more.
Don't forget to give us a follow, rate the podcast and share it with a mate, cheers!
