How One Busy Designer Got Back in the Game in Just One Day
From Stuck to Showing Up: How One Busy Designer Got Back in the Game in Just One Day
Meet Maya.
She’s a knit designer, a full-time corporate project manager, and a mom of two little ones with energy levels that rival a double espresso.
Maya has 17 beautiful patterns sitting in her Ravelry store, some with glowing reviews and photos of happy knitters in finished sweaters. But her Instagram? Crickets. Her email list? Silent.
And it wasn’t for lack of wanting to show up.
She wanted to share.
She wanted to reconnect with her community.
She wanted to bring in a little more revenue from the patterns she’s already worked so hard to create.
But every time she opened Instagram or her email platform, she froze.
“What do I even say?”
“It’s been so long — will anyone even care?”
“Am I just popping in to sell something?”
So instead, she’d close the app, push the thought aside, and focus on her kids, her job, dinner, bedtime, laundry.
Business? Maybe next week.
Marketing? Someday.
Until one day, while doom-scrolling at 10:43pm with a cold cup of tea on her nightstand, Maya stumbled on a post about “1 Day, 1 Week, 1 Month: Revenue-Generating Ideas for Knit & Crochet Designers.”
She clicked.
She read the page.
She hesitated (just for a second), then clicked BUY.
And the next morning?
She did something she hadn’t done in months.
She posted on Instagram.
A simple, real post about her latest design and what inspired it.
It took her less than 15 minutes, using one of the ideas straight from the “1 Day” section of the guide.
No complicated funnel. No launch plan. Just one action.
Maya later told me:
“I’d been thinking about posting for months and dreading it. I didn’t want to come off salesy, and I didn’t know what to say. But this guide gave me ideas that didn’t make me cringe. It made it so easy — I didn’t have to overthink. And that relief of just doing the thing? It was huge.”
Now, when Maya has a few minutes between meetings or while waiting in the school pickup line, she pulls out the PDF on her phone and picks one idea to do that day or week.
Because when life is full, you don’t need more to do —
You need the right next step.
