    GG Made it with Gaye Glassipie (Part One) Sep 30, 2026
    Show notes

    What happens when knitting becomes more than a hobby? GG Glasspie of GG Made It joins Lisa for a hilarious, heartfelt conversation about yarn, grief, finding your voice, and learning to stand your ground. From discovering knitting at “YouTube University” to knitting her way through unimaginable loss, GG shares how two needles and some yarn helped her build confidence, community, and a whole lot of orange.

    They also get real about racism in the fiber world, setting boundaries, and why sometimes the best way to create change is to stand in the gap. Because according to GG, it’s not just knitting it’s healing, teaching, and stitching people together.
