Season 2 of The Designated Designer kicks off with a heart-to-heart.

In this vulnerable episode, I'm reflecting on my first full year running in business, celebrating the gritty wins, unpacking the missteps, and embracing the weird, wonderful transformation that comes when you fully commit to your path.

This isn’t just a recap; it’s a reset. From navigating burnout and redefining success to learning how to lead with intention, here's the moments that cracked me open and helped me evolve—not just as a designer, but as a human. If you’ve ever wondered what it really looks like to grow a creative business from the ground up (spoiler: it’s not always cute), this episode is for you.

Whether you're a fellow designer, an entrepreneur in the thick of it, or a curious soul craving real talk—this journey’s for you.
