Welcome back to the Design for the Creative Mind podcast!

DeeDee's journey from artist to thriving interior designer is nothing short of inspiring, and I can't wait for you to hear all about it! What We Cover in This Episode: How DeeDee's background in art and graphic design led her to interior design The evolution of her business, from small design packages to a full-scale firm Her early days of refinishing cabinets and how that turned into a major part of her business The moment she realized it was time to charge what she was worth How hiring a business coach (yes, including me!) changed everything for her Her transition from specializing in kitchens and baths to full-service furnishing The game-changing impact of profit margins in furniture design Overcoming the fear of expanding into new services Her role now as a master coach, giving back to the design community DeeDee's story is a reminder that success in design is a journey, and investing in education, mentorship, and taking bold steps can transform your business.
