Hi friends! In this episode of Simply Hooked: A Crochet Podcast, I’m diving into a concept that has completely transformed my life and business—ikigai. This Japanese idea, which translates to “a reason for being,” is about finding the sweet spot where your passions, skills, purpose, and the world’s needs all intersect.

I’ll share the history behind ikigai, how it’s connected to joy and longevity, and how it helped me align my crochet business with my deeper purpose. Plus, I’ll walk you through a simple ikigai exercise you can use to:
✨ Uncover your unique purpose and gifts
✨ Brainstorm creative ways to earn income doing what you love
✨ Design a life and business that feels deeply meaningful

Whether you’re a crochet enthusiast, a handmade business owner, or simply searching for more direction in your creative life, this episode will inspire you to embrace your own journey and craft a life that excites you.
