Welcome to the ‘If These Walls Could Talk’ podcast by Rachel Usher. I am an accomplished Interior Designer and solopreneur, having built my design practice from nothing into an an award winning and published studio.
During my journey I found the business side of interiors to be secretive and largely conducted from behind the curtain, leaving business owners like myself grappling with the unique complexities of running a design business, having to learn many things through trial and error.
Well here’s the thing, it doesn’t have to be that way!
This show is designed for design professionals. Together, with our guests we demystify the business of Interiors. This is the place where we hear from the personal experiences of some incredible people that work within the design industry, from entrepreneurs to business experts. Together we unravel some of those truth tales about what it really means, to not only survive, but to thrive in the creative world of business.

In episode 13 I am speaking with Samantha Pope, founder of Samantha Pope Interiors. Samantha candidly shares her journey of starting her own practice and the challenges she faced along the way. She emphasises the importance of learning business skills and the need for designers to understand the financial and administrative aspects of running a company. Samantha also highlights the significance of personal development and the core values that guide her design approach. Samantha's journey is inspirational and I can't wait to see what's next for Samantha Pope Interiors.
