The Quilters: Netflix Editor Will Rogers on Purpose, Prison, and Creativity

In this heartfelt episode, I join Will Rogers, the editor of The Quilters — a Netflix short film that tells the moving story of incarcerated men in a Missouri prison who sew quilts for children in need.

Will shares how he landed this unique editing role, the behind-the-scenes challenges and beauty of shaping such a powerful narrative, and what he discovered about the human spirit along the way — both from the quilters and the prisoners. 

This episode is a beautiful reminder of the transformation that comes from creating with purpose and the unexpected places where hope and art intersect.

Whether you’re a quilter, filmmaker, or creative entrepreneur, this episode will leave you inspired to look at your craft — and your purpose — with new eyes.
