I enjoyed going to Chapel at Layla’s school.
They did a demonstration about even when we are fearful, if we fill our hearts and minds with God’s word like King Saul and King David, he will keep our cups full of hope.

Your design talent isn’t the problem. Sequence might be. 👀

You can create a beautiful room and still feel stuck building the business behind it.

Not because you aren’t good enough.
Not because you need another certification.
And not because you aren’t working hard enough.

Sometimes, you’re working hard on the wrong things, in the wrong order.

In this video, I’m breaking down three reasons talented designers stay stuck:

→ Too many offers, audiences, and directions competing for your attention.
→ Working on what looks like progress instead of what your business needs next.
→ Missing the business skills that support your creativity: pricing, positioning, pipeline, and process.

The shift isn’t “do more.” It’s knowing what to focus on in the phase you’re actually in: Transition, Build, Grow, or Scale.

I have to give a shot out to my beautiful and amazing daughter, Layla. She is now 8 years old and I can’t believe it.

This week she got her report card and received all A’s outside of one C in math, which she is working on improving in.

She works hard by studying everyday.

She takes a Spanish class twice per week, reads a book every night, and studies a new set of words every week.

She reminds me of myself when I was her age. Curious, ambitious, independent, and so bright.

I instill in her that she doesn’t have to get it right all the time. But what is important as that she try her best in everything she does. And as long as she knows for herself that she gave it her all, that’s all that matters.

I love seeing her grow into a young lady, who’s is kind, loving, respectful, and resourceful.

Over the past 15 years I’ve been designing the life that I’ve always wanted. A life where I could be present for my daughter during these important times that fly by so fast.

I thank God everyday for giving me the opportunity to work when, where and how I want.

All I know is that Layla is going to do big things in her purpose and I can’t wait for the day she discovers it.

To all the hard working moms, comment what you are proud of?

Has such a great time celebrating my friend and mentor A Well-Designed Business Podcast for her 10 year Podcast Anniversary.

She started as a mentor and friend from afar as I’d listen 🎧 to her podcast on my way to work everyday.

I’d learn something new that I could apply to my interior decorating business from the interviews she’d do with industry experts.

Then when I replaced my six-figure income on my marketing & advertising job, with my part-time income from my design business, I leaped.

Three years later after I started my coaching business (Employee to Designer) for interior designers & decorators, where I was teaching them how to build a 6-figure business and take the leap just like I did, I got a call from Luann, inviting me on her podcast.

It was definitely a pinch-myself moment.

I’ve been on her podcast 3 times, and have enjoyed every conversation.

There are people that come into your life to fill it up without asking for anything in return.

That’s my Luann. Heart 💜

Thank you for all that you do and continue to do for our industry.

Stopped by the Universal Furniture showroom while at High Point Market this past weekend, and fell in love with this living room vignette.

And I loved how they paired it with the design inspiration board to show you the thought process behind the curation of furniture, textures, fabrics, and colors.

This reminds me of when I used to decorate homes the design boards I use to put together for my clients.

Each one unique and thoughtfully curated.

One of the things I learned working in sales over the years is that the “fortune is in the follow-up”, as Jim Rhon said.

One of the fastest ways to grow your interior design business is by building relationships.

That’s because no one does great things alone.

This past weekend, I connected with some amazing people in the design industry that I am excited about partnering with to do some great work in the future.

So I spent the day following up with them to start the conversation.

Mastering this skill, helped me start and run a consistent 6-figure+ interior decorating business for years.

Tip: When you meet someone, follow up within 3-5 business days or less. Or if a potential design client says they aren’t ready right now but to follow up with them in 6 months. Make sure you follow up.

Because they just might say yes when you do.

Master the art of true connection and making things happen and watch how you’ll grow!
