🧶 Knit Your Stress Away 🧶


The podcast for moms who want to knit instead of scroll.


Tired of ending every night on your phone? I teach overwhelmed moms how to use knitting to calm your nervous system, set phone boundaries, and reclaim 20 minutes of peace.


I’m Nadine—a mom who traded doomscrolling for knitting and never looked back.


Whether you’re a complete beginner or getting back into knitting after years away, this show will help you trade screen time for something that actually makes you feel better.


What you’ll learn:

  • Why knitting calms your nervous system
  • How to start as a total beginner
  • Building a knitting habit with zero free time
  • Phone boundaries that actually work

New episodes every Wednesday.

Short, practical, and always focused on one question: How does this help you knit instead of scroll?


Put down your phone, grab some yarn, and let’s knit the stress away—one stitch at a time.

Knit Your Stress Away is for overwhelmed moms who want calm, screen-free evenings — whether you’ve never picked up knitting needles or you’re returning after years away.

Each short weekly episode teaches how knitting helps regulate your nervous system, replace doomscrolling, and create a simple nightly ritual that helps you feel like yourself again.

    Free guide → Swap Scrolling for Stitching - everything you need to intentionally work the knitting habit into your life in just 3 days! (Plus: a newbie cheatsheet) You know that feeling when you bind off a project and just sit there for a second like… ohhhh, that’s why I keep doing this? There’s actually a reason your brain responds that way. And it’s the same reason scrolling can feel rewarding in the moment but leave you feeling oddly empty when you finally put your phone down. In this episode, Nadine breaks down what dopamine actually does, why knitting delivers a more grounded kind of satisfaction than your phone ever will, and why finishing something with your own hands hits so differently — especially as a mom whose work almost never feels done. In this episode:
    • What dopamine actually does (it’s more than just “the feel-good chemical”)
    • Why scrolling taps into reward pathways but still leaves you feeling hollow
    • Why completion and proof matter so much when you’re a mom
    • How to use knitting’s natural reward loop to build a habit that actually sticks
    • Why every single row counts — not just the finished project

    #115 // Why your brain won’t shut off at night (even when you’re exhausted)
    2026/04/22

    You’re tired. You get in bed. You tell yourself five minutes. And then somehow it’s 11:24, your eyes are dry, your brain is completely wired, and you know entirely too much about what strangers ate for dinner tonight. Sound familiar? In this episode, Nadine breaks down exactly why scrolling before bed backfires — and why it feels like rest even when it isn’t. Plus a realistic, zero-shame alternative that doesn’t require a perfect routine or an hour of free time. In this episode:
    • Why screens before bed make sleep harder (the science, kept simple)
    • The third reason nobody talks about — and why it might be the biggest one
    • Why “easy” and “restful” aren’t always the same thing
    • How to replace the scrolling habit without just white-knuckling it
    • A realistic bedtime wind-down that actually fits real mom life
    • The notebook trick that stops late-night brain spirals

    Cortisol has become one of those wellness buzzwords that makes everyone’s eyes glaze over. But before you scroll past — this isn’t that kind of episode. In this episode, I break down what cortisol actually is, why it’s not the villain it gets made out to be, and what really happens when your body never gets enough chances to shift out of high alert. Plus — why something as simple as 20 minutes of knitting might be one of the most practical tools you have for helping your system finally exhale. In this episode:
    • What cortisol actually does (and why it’s not the problem everyone says it is)
    • Why nonstop days and stimulating evenings keep your body more activated than it needs to be
    • How knitting creates the conditions your body needs to come out of stress mode
    • What “lowering your stress load” actually looks like in a real, loud, full mom life
    • 3 simple ways to use knitting as a stress-relief tool starting tonight
