In this episode of Sacred Work in Progress, Bonnie talks with artist and community builder Gaby Viteri, founder of First Female in Palm Beach County. What began as a chat on authenticity opened into Gaby’s debut collection, “Speed Kills”—a series of 47 ceramic plates that trace real chapters of her life, grief, and growth.

They get into why slowing down can change your art, how community helps us be seen, and the moment a quiet download became a body of work. Expect talk of creative permission, perfectionism vs expression, releasing control, and what happens when you let the work lead.
