34: The Audacity of Authenticity with Joshua Smith
About this episode
Let's go deeper. Let's go beyond the fabrics, the wallcovering, and even the paycheck.
On this episode of The Designer Within Podcast, Joshua Smith and I have a heartfelt conversation around so many of the events that occur in our lives: business and personal. Joshua has such an open spirit and heart and he's sharing his thoughts on how he handled the ups and downs that many of us also endure.
In this episode, Joshua and I discuss:
* His personal journey into interior design and how his non-traditional path has led to his success
* The "aha moments" that Josh had in 2023 around pricing his services, choosing his clients, and marketing his business
* How Josh and I relate to the illusion of "too busy" or "too successful" that the general public sometimes have
* The way that Josh starts his day and how it sets him off on the right foot for anything that happens during the day
Sit back, settle in, and enjoy this in-depth conversation with the always interesting and enlightening Joshua Smith.
