Ep 1: Why it's important to get over the fear of copying other designers

Mind of the Crochet Designer podcast

Hi Creative and Beautiful Soul,

I'm excited to share the first episode of the Mind of the Crochet Designer podcast with you! In this episode, we dive deep into a kind of taboo topic for aspiring crochet designers: the fear of copying other designers. Here are the biggest headlines and key takeaways from this episode.

1. Addressing the Fear of Copying: Why so many (aspiring) designers have this fear, what's actually behind this fear and the most effective ways on how to let it go.
2. Understanding the difference between inspiration and copying and why it's normal to copy others.
3. My personal experience with copying: How I've been called a copycat and how I responded to that.
4. Handling Legal Concerns: The irrational fear of lawsuits and the importance of common sense.
