Ep 18: From feeling lonely and depressed to owning a crochet lounge - The inspiring journey of Jayresa from Crochepeutic

I recently had an amazing talk with Jayresa from Crochepeutic, it was so inspiring and I had so many aha's the weekend after... It was just magical! This is a must listen!

This episode is for:

1. Crocheters looking to turn their hobby into a business
2. Anyone feeling lonely or disconnected and seeking community
3. People interested in using crafts to improve their mental health
4. Social media newbies wanting to grow their following

If you've ever felt stuck in your crochet journey or if you feel lonely and wonder how to make real connections in the craft world, you'll want to hear Jayresa's story. She shares some surprising insights about building a community and growing a business that might just change how you think about crochet!

What I found really interesting was how crochet helped Jayresa manage her depression. She used it as a way to connect with others and feel like she belonged somewhere. This led her to create Crochepeutic, which is all about building a community for crocheters.

PLUS if you want to learn how to grow your social media super fast, we talk about exactly what she did to go from 73 followers at the beginning of 2024 to over 42K right now! Hint: it's not creating posts every day or making your reels go viral ;)
