Convo By Design - A Deep Exploration into the Nature of Collaboration and Manifestation - 54 min

In today’s episode, Josh Cooperman interviews Denver based designer, Nadia Watts. A creative with a very strong collaborative spirit. What does that mean?

Well, it’s an idea that is uniquely different based on the individuals perspective. In Nadia’s case, collaboration is an idea inextricably tied to her work, you are going to hear about that as well as an exploration into her work and how she uses elements of her design to bounce of other parts to add depth and detail to the work.

Where are you losing time and energy in your business? It’s common for designers to believe they don’t have enough time, especially when it comes to the more visible tasks in your business like appointments, proposals, invoices, or client communication.

However, hidden areas of your business consume your time and energy, and when you can fix them, everything else becomes more manageable.

In this episode, host Desi Creswell is sharing how to spot the leaks that are present in your interior design business, and showing you how to address them before you hit burnout.

  • The hidden time and energy leaks that most designers don’t notice are draining their resources.

  • What you can do to shift your mindset around your business's hidden time and energy leaks.

  • How switching between multiple tasks and projects is slowing you and your team down.

  • Why multitasking is a fallacy.

  • What second-guessing yourself looks like and how it’s consuming valuable resources in your business.

  • How to see the impact of these hidden time and energy leaks in your business and how to begin plugging those leaks.

Beyond Interior Design - 2/2 Create real impact with your interior design - with Sisi Salamanca - 1 hr, 11 min

In the second part of this 2-part Podcast, Marc Müskens is again being interviewed by co-founder of the House Coaching Institute, Sisi Salamanca.

A few weeks ago Sisi Salamanca, from Colombia, reached out to me: “We should have a chat, Marc”.

And she was right. We felt so connected, because we are on the same mission!    

Sisi Salamanca previously worked in the design industry and now she teaches at the House Coaching Institute; how to live a wholehearted life with integrity, to enjoy a liberating lifestyle.

We both believe that interior designers possess a unique ability to create spaces that leave lasting impact on peoples lives.

Here at the Institute of Interior Impact, we’re committed to helping every interior designer tap into this potential by providing them the tools and knowledge the need to take their business to new heights. So… that’s exactly what we are going to do in this Special Q&A Session!
