As an interior design professional, you create beauty, function, and transformation for your clients—but are you building the same for yourself? In this episode we dig into the powerful connection between your sense of worth and your ability to build true wealth. If you’ve ever questioned what you should charge, struggled with confidence in business, or felt stuck on the income treadmill, this episode will shift your perspective—and help you design a business as intentional as your interiors.

In this episode we learn:

  • why undercharging isn’t just a pricing issue—it’s a self-worth issue
  • how wealth isn’t just about money, but about time, freedom, and choice
  • the hidden costs of burnout and overdelivering
  • practical ways to increase your profit margins without compromising your creativity
  • how to reframe your mindset around money, value, and success as a creative

 

DESIGN INTERVENTION

Don’t take advice from people who haven’t built what you are trying to achieve. People don’t always teach from experience but instead from opinion. It is important to filter who you take advice from specially when growing your business.
