Come hungry. Leave profitable.
S6 Ep. 199: Talent Won’t Save Your Business (and What Actually Will)
In this episode, I’m talking about something we don’t say out loud enough in the design world: being talented isn’t the same thing as being profitable. You can be incredibly good at what you do — have the eye, the taste, the creativity — and still feel like you’re struggling to stay afloat in your business. And it’s not because you’re not good enough.
S6 Ep.198 Trusted Partners: How to Build Your Go-To Vendor List
In this episode, I’m joined by Juliana and Debbie to pull back the curtain on what it really takes to build strong vendor relationships. We’re talking about sourcing confidently, vetting partners, and creating connections that make your job easier — not harder.
S6 Ep197: When to Break Your Own Rules
In this episode, I’m revealing the fine line between healthy business boundaries and the ones that hold you back — sharing real stories, hard-earned lessons, and a simple framework to know when to stand firm and when to bend with strategy (not fear).
S6 Ep 196: The 90% Plan
In this episode, we dive into the 90% Rule—how letting go of perfectionism can actually help your business thrive. You’ll learn when to give 100% and when 90% is more than enough, how “overdelivering” can hurt your profits, and the difference between excellence and perfection. I also share real stories from ML Interiors Group, including one small shift that saved us 10–15 hours per project!
