Author: Crafting for Profit LIVE February 17, 2025 Duration: 49:13

Feeling stuck in your small business? It may be time to pivot! Changes big and small can be scary and we want to help. Today we have Amy Pelzner with us from Leap of Faith crafting discussing when and how to pivot in your craft business. We will discuss our own pivots and the steps we took to get where we are.


Amy Pelzner is the blogger and content creator behind Leapoffaithcrafting.com website and YouTube channel. She started a crafting website in 2016 to sell handmade items and quickly fell in love with the blogging aspect and pivoted solely to that. She is the author of a Christmas Cricut book and loves to blog about Cricut crafts and printables.

Amy lives in Northern California with husband, last of three children (2 in college) and two rescue dogs!
