    How to Use Cycle Syncing to Save Time in Your Business - with Renae Fieck

    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 works...

    Use Your Knit & Crochet Skills to Keep W NC Warm!

    Hurricane Helene recently dumped a ridiculous amount of rain on western North Carolina: a mountainous region that is not used to hurricane weather. The massive amount of rainfall led to power outages, water lines breaking, houses and roads drifting into the lakes and rivers, and more. While my home wasn't touched, there are homes not far from me that were. And the worst of the destruction is just a 2-3 hours' drive from me.Long story shorter: western North Carolina needs our help! The weather...

    Behind the Curtain: Working with My Technical Editor as a Knitting Pattern Designer - with Joanna of Precision Tech Editing

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 trust...

    The Rewards of Being Vulnerable & Asking Your Audience for Help - with Hanna Lisa of Making

    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.

Vulnerability is a great way to build trust and connection, for starters.It can feel scary, but aren't ...
