In this confidence-boosting episode of Simply Hooked: A Crochet Podcast, we dive deep into overcoming imposter syndrome as a crochet designer and creative entrepreneur. If you’ve ever questioned your talent, compared yourself to other designers, or wondered why anyone would choose your crochet patterns, this episode will speak straight to your heart.

I share personal stories from my own creative journey—including a moment in the frozen food aisle that completely transformed the way I view creativity, originality, and the crochet industry. You’ll walk away with practical tools, mindset shifts, and encouragement to help you step confidently into your role as a designer.

Inside this episode, you’ll discover how to:
✨ Rewire negative self-talk and build a stronger mindset as a crochet designer
✨ Find your unique creative voice in a crowded crochet pattern market
✨ Confidently grow your crochet business without comparing yourself to others
✨ Understand why variety, originality, and authenticity matter in the handmade world
✨ Remember that your creativity is needed—and someone is waiting for the exact patterns only you can create
