Sometimes, things don’t go as planned—and that’s okay. This episode is a little more behind-the-scenes than normal, and it's a reminder that sometimes pausing to realign is the most productive thing you can do. I had a different episode planned, but instead I'm doing a bit more behind-the-scenes work to create super valuable content that's strategic so it reaches the right people. So this is your permission slip to slow down when you need to, step back when necessary, and focus on making your...
Marketing doesn’t have to feel overwhelming or scattered.

I’m hosting a free marketing challenge this week (March 7-9, 2025) called "Clarify Your Marketing Foundations." We’re diving into the three core parts of your marketing funnel to he...
In an online world dominated by the "need" for engagement, negative headlines soar above the positive and mundane happenings around us. I'm not familiar with the scientific reason, but I do know the human brain seems to be captivated by negativity and controversy. It creates a fascination, a reaction, and a response; so our news, media, social media, and conversations are often oversaturated with it. However, statistics indicate the world isn't any more "bad" than it was in the past; we are j...

I feel a lot like I'm coming back to business with a fresh start after about 2 years marked by burnout followed pregnancy and then maternity leave. I still have the same excitement and passion for my business, but as a work-from-home mom with a baby, my work schedule looks a bit different. And my planning process is no exception. In this podcast episode, I dive into exactly what my slow, organic planning process is looking like for this year. If traditional planning doesn't resonate with, if ...

We're already to the last episode of this series of podcasts inspired by video interviews from the Collin & Samir show. I hope you've found them thought-provoking, inspirational, and filled with value that you can use in your life and business. This final episode is inspired by a discussion that was "just" between Collin and Samir - no guests. They were talking about Twitter becoming X and discussing what kind of content would and would not work well on that platform, and in this convers...
New and exciting changes for you are here! In an effort to make my communities as accessible, generous, and helpful as I can, I've adjusted the Pattern Design Circle community membership, so it's now split into three communities: The Creative Thread: a free community for knit and crochet pattern designers - and anyone who would like to collaborate with designers - to find resources, including calls for submissions, networking and business opportunities, and connecting with each other.Pattern ...
I hope you absolutely loved the previous episode inspired by Jacob Collier's interview on the Collin & Samir Show, and that you're ready for part two! While part one felt a bit like a motivational pep talk (or at least I hope it did - that was my intention!), in part two we're diving deeper into some of the realities of business ~ and Jacob's advice concerning fear and growth mindset. As always, I hope you enjoy this chat and take away something valuable to implement in your life or bus...

Do you ever read a book, watch a movie, or listen to an interview that inspires you so much that you just want to talk about it with someone - or everyone? That's how I felt after listening to Jacob Collier's interview on the Collin & Samir Show. And that's what this episode is all about: digging deeper into some ideas that really resonated with me from the interview. Finding your passion, becoming an expert, following your purpose, and making an impact... this is just the tip of the ice...
Over the past couple of years, I've been fascinated to learn about the natural cycles of humans, including seasonalities, hormones, habits, and more. As we lean into these natural cycles, our businesses can feel more easeful, our time more productive, and our energy more optimized. If you're ready to lean into what's already instinctual in your body (rather than working against it), this episode is for you! In this episode with Renae Fieck, we talk about Cycle Syncing: what it is, how it wor...
With Amazon's Big Deal Days just behind us and Black Friday sales just ahead of us, I have some thoughts. Did you notice how many other businesses followed Amazon's lead with Big Deal Days by hosting their own "big" sales at the same time? Do you wonder if you need to jump on all of the sale/discount bandwagons too? In this podcast episode, we dive into all things discounts and sales: trends that I've been seeing, when discounts/sales work well (and when they don't), how to create a good dis...
If you're an abled person who doesn't have to worry about ableism in your day to day life, you're likely unaware of the many different shapes and forms that ableism can take. I know it's certainly a relatively new topic for me! And that's why I'm so excited to share this episode with you, featuring Beth Gorishek from Adaptive Knitter. Beth has been adapting everything ~ including her knitting ~ her entire life as someone who is limb different. She's passionate about teaching folks how to bec...
As much as we might try to see the world through a black and white, right versus wrong lens, that's often not the case. In this podcast episode, I chat with Karel Chan from KC Knitting Co, and we discuss some hot takes for the knit and crochet pattern design industry, which are linked with a discussion of the nuances of running a creative business, and specifically as a knitwear or crochet designer. You may not be surprised to know that we believe, whether driven by necessity, p...
Finding a technical editor that you work well with and that does good work can be difficult to find, and it often takes time to build a trusting relationship. I feel as though I have a great working relationship with my technical editor, but it wasn't always that way. Prior to working with Joanna (of Precision Technical Editing), I'd worked with a few other technical editors, typically for just one or two patterns. One I felt spoke to me in a bit condescending way. Another I didn't quite tru...
Being vulnerable and asking for help can be difficult and intimidating in any situation, let alone when you're the CEO of your business and you feel like you're supposed to be the expert - the person who knows everything and can do everything. But the reality is... you're human. We're all human. And just as vulnerability tends to be valuable in nearly any relationship, so it is in business. Vulnerability is a great way to build trust and connection, for starters. It can feel scary, but aren'...
As an entrepreneur, it can be difficult to take off a month or more for your business, especially if you're working alone and used to wearing all of the hats. But as a new parent, it's extremely valuable and important that you're able to step away from work to care for yourself and your new little one(s). Plus, this is why you're a business owner: so you have the freedom and flexibility that you want and need in life! In this episode with Johanna of Anna Johanna Designs, we talk through our ...
