56: Jocie & the CVNTs: Craftivism, Crochet, and Coordinating Direct Actions

What happens when your softness isn’t perceived as a weakness but your strategy for sustainability? This episode challenges the idea that activism has to be loud, dangerous, or perfect to make a difference.In this episode, we explore:Women’s Work is Political: Jocie breaks down how reclaiming knitting as activism is both intentional and disruptive.Small Impact Still Counts: From classrooms to community hats, we assert that changing even one life is meaningful & why quantitative scale isn’t the only measure of impact."Everyone is big enough to do something" Framework from Mister Rogers: Craftivism becomes an accessible entry point for people who can’t engage in traditional activism but still want to contribute in tangible ways.Protecting Your Peace: We talk about perfectionism, the “digital HOA,” and how fear of doing it wrong stops people from doing anything at all.Key Questions Answered in the Audio: Is craftivism “enough” to make a real difference? How do you contribute to change if your body/brain/nervous system can’t tolerate traditional activism? What does a sustainable craftivism practice actually look like?Resources Mentioned:CVNT Collective – https://cvntcollective.orgInstagram: @cvnt.collectiveJoin our crafting community >>>https://www.facebook.com/groups/1827428261337223Donate, shop, craft, or share to support the mission!Connect With Us!The Neurodivergent Reportndreportpod.comFollow us on all the socials @NDreportpod
