If you’ve listened to the trailer of Simply Hooked: A Crochet Podcast (launching March 6!), you know that it’s about more than just crochet. It’s about crafting a life you love by leaning into your God-given gifts and embracing creativity, growth, and purpose. Another aspect of the podcast will be Threads of Wisdom mini-episodes.
What Are Threads of Wisdom?
Threads of Wisdom is a series of bite-sized episodes designed to inspire and uplift. These are moments of reflection, snippets of wisdom I’ve gathered over the years from books, quotes, and life experiences. Each episode focuses on a single thought, quote, or concept and explores how it can be applied to our lives in meaningful ways.
The goal is simple: to share inspiration that brightens your day, sparks your creativity, and encourages personal growth. Life is a lot like crochet—it’s built one small stitch at a time. With these mini-episodes, I hope to offer you thoughtful ideas that you can weave into the fabric of your own journey.
Why Add Mini-Episodes?
As a creator and podcast host, I’ve always believed that creativity and self-improvement go hand in hand. While the main episodes of Simply Hooked dive into crochet tips, techniques, and stories, I wanted to carve out space for broader discussions on personal development and faith.
These mini-episodes are my way of blending the art of crafting with the art of living.
They’re quick, impactful listens that remind us of the importance of growth, gratitude, and grace in everything we do—on and off the hook.
How Threads of Wisdom Fits into the Full Podcast
Each Threads of Wisdom episode is designed to complement the main episodes of Simply Hooked. While the longer episodes focus on practical crochet techniques, project ideas, and stories from the crafting community, these mini-episodes offer a moment to pause and reflect. They’re a way to step back from the hustle, think deeply, and refocus on what truly matters.
For example, in the first mini-episode, I explore a quote from Jim Rohn: “Don’t wish it were easier, wish you were better. Don’t wish for fewer problems, wish for more skills. Don’t wish for less challenge, wish for more wisdom.” This powerful concept challenges us to see life’s difficulties as opportunities for growth—a perspective that resonates in both our crafting and our daily lives.
In the second mini-episode, I reflect on Earl Nightingale’s wisdom: “You become what you think about.” It’s a reminder of the power of our thoughts and how intentionality can transform our lives. Whether you’re picking up a crochet hook or tackling a new challenge, your mindset shapes your outcomes.
What to Expect from Threads of Wisdom
Each mini-episode will:
- Be short and sweet, perfect for listening during a coffee break or working on your latest project.
- Focus on a single inspiring quote or concept.
- Offer practical ideas for applying these lessons to your crafting and personal development.
- Tie back to the broader themes of Simply Hooked, emphasizing creativity, growth, and living a purposeful life.
