In this episode of Simply Hooked: A Crochet Podcast, we meet Melinda—a woman who walked away from housekeeping after chemical exposure caused debilitating migraines… and walked straight into her God-given calling.
What began as a health crisis became the catalyst for a complete life pivot. Melinda didn’t just start over—she built multiple businesses rooted in creativity, service, and purpose.
Her story is raw, real, and a beautiful reminder that sometimes the hardest detours lead us exactly where we’re meant to be.
Inside this episode:
● How Melinda turned a painful health challenge into a creative business journey
● The courage it takes to leave behind “safe” jobs for meaningful work
● Why faith, service, and creativity go hand-in-hand for handmade entrepreneurs
● Inspiration for anyone considering a career pivot or longing to use their gifts with purpose
If you’ve ever wondered whether your creativity could become your livelihood, or if you’re in the middle of your own transition, Melinda’s story will inspire you to step forward with courage.
