In this episode, I talk about how to deal with internet bullies and negative comments as a crochet designer or online business owner. I share my personal experience with a recent critical message and how I responded.

This episode is for you when:

• You let fear of criticism stop you from pursuing your creative dreams.
• You want to let go of that fear and to develop a mindset that separates your personal worth from your designs or social media posts.
• You're ready to embrace challenges as opportunities for growth and learning.
• You need a reminder that you're not meant to appeal to everyone, and that's okay.
