If you’ve been feeling stuck in your crochet business or creative journey, this episode is for you. I’m talking about the difference between trusting God’s provision and staying passive, and what it really looks like to partner faith with action. I’ll encourage you to step out of the “nest,” take messy action, and start building the business and life you’ve been dreaming about, because the opportunities are out there, and you already have what you need to go get them.
