She's Baaaaaaack........ we pick back up right where we left off in Part 1 (episode #16) for Part 2 of our sit down/catch up together!

I just love this incredible soul - today's guest is one of the most genuine and authentic people I've yet to meet in this industry - who rocks at roller derby and manifested her way onto ⁠The Marilyn Denis Show⁠ twice! We first crossed paths several years ago when I attempted a quasi-rescue from the comments section of an online designer group (more on that in episode #16 - Pt 1)...

Michelle Binette - self-taught interior designer, avid puzzler, & tenacious implementer of all-things tech & A.I., has continually inspired me with her passion for growth and her endearing transparency around what it's actually like growing an interior design business from the ground up.

We catch up after nearly a year of busy #designlife to candidly chat about retainers and how interior designers could and should be implementing them, the dreaded P-word (people-pleasing) and how working to overcome perfectionism is one of the keys to thriving in business, and what happens when you offer furnishings procurement and the client wants ALL your trade discounts... there are a few real life stories thrown in for some context you definitely won't want to miss!!

Grab a coffee and settle in... we cover so much!
