    Incredibly helpful insight as I start my own interior design business!
    I have listened to each episode at least 3 times and gain more knowledge with every listen. Anastasia asks the best, most specific questions and does such a wonderful job directing the conversation exactly toward what I am looking to learn from each episode. This podcast has been so incredibly helpful for me as I start up my own interior design business & has given me great insight into how successful firms run their operations and client communications. Couldn’t recommend more!!!

    Foundationally has changed my business for the better!
    The fact that this level of interior design *business* education is free is mind blowing and speaks to the generosity of each guest and Anastasia as a host. As someone who sought out any and all information on running a design business, and paid for quite a bit of it, this podcast, every week, is a master class in business best practices & processes. ALL FREE OF COST. The information given has foundationally changed my business for the better and is truly a joy to listen to each week. Love, a forever listener.

    MUST LISTEN for interior designers!
    This podcast is going to be a huge resource in the interior design world! Loving it so much!
  • MbChau
    The first podcast in my queue, always!
    I love the way the host interviews guest in such a friendly and warm but inquisitive way. There’s always a nugget of gold in each of these episodes and it’s basically like one playbook every part of design. I especially loved the episode with Jeremiah where he spoke about really designing your space for you and even the recent one about construction documentation and a deep dive on full service design process. Whether it’s technical advice or things that make you think about how to design, this podcast is #1

    A total game-changer!
    This podcast has totally changed the game for me & my new interiors firm. The incredible guests, brilliant host, and super diligent and comprehensive topics are one of the best resources we have found for learning this world. I am consistently impressed with the thoughtful answers provided & so grateful for the real, honest, and detailed conversations that have answered so many questions and provided so much insight for our team!
  • Mr . H
    The perfect (podcast) hostess
    Anastasia was made to interview! She is by far my favorite podcast host. She is so natural yet fearless in her deep dives into the layers of all aspects of the somewhat secretive interior design world. I love how she gracefully rephrases her line of inquiry to be sure every teensy-tiny detail of each question is fully satisfied. The podcast guests are perfectly selected to represent every corner of the business. Perfection.

    Easy 5 Stars
    This podcast is single handedly one of the most insightful, informative, and easy to listen to podcasts. The topics are so applicable to interior designers and often a conversation that isn’t always easy to find insights to. I could not recommend Anastasia and this podcast more! The easiest 5 stars ever given.
  • Libbyhenny
    My favorite interior design podcast
    This is by far the best podcast for interior designers who are looking to grow or better their business in any way! Anastasia does an expert job at creating conversations with her guests that address all of the topics and questions the designer community has for so long only discussed behind closed doors. In each interview with renowned designers, Anastasia makes space for her guest to share their business approach and methods, unpacking the different ways there are to successfully run an interior design business. She asks the exact questions us growing designers are thinking while not going so far as to press her guests for all of their trade secrets. Anastasia always acknowledges that the designers’ are being gracious with any information they share with us :) It’s truly an art form how she continuously puts herself in the learner’s shoes episode after episode, much to the benefit of every listener. Thank you, Anastasia for making the best practices of interior design so accessible and digestible- and freaking fun! You remind us that there’s room for all of us in this beautiful biz <3

    Expert Advice, for free!
    I find this to be the most informative podcast I’ve found on the subjects of working in the design industry and running a design business. I’m amazed at how the hosts find a new angle and subject matter to discuss with each guest, and the various insights and perspectives offered. So much fantastic, free information!
  • 019974
    Obsessed!!!
    A true lesson in professionalism! Every episode is full of knowledge, strategies, and new ideas for entrepreneurs in design. Anastasia does an incredible job going deep into the tough questions about running a successful design business with all of her hosts. Always stoked for the next episode!
  • JCR27:)))
    simply the best interiors podcast
    I look forward to this podcast every week and always find myself taking notes and hanging onto every world. Anastasia is an industry expert and understands the ins and outs of design in a way that leads the most insightful and interesting conversations. This is what the interiors podcast space was missing! If you’re curious about design, creative businesses, or something in-between, this is a must listen.
  • Stanela
    Every episode is a must listen!
    We are obsessed! Every single episode digs deep into the nitty gritty of the interior design process. Anastasia is an excellent interviewer and clearly understands the nuances of the business of luxury design.
  • Beccalifornia
    My personal opinion.
    This podcast is very informative, a listener gets very thorough snippets of the business scale from amazing interior designer's. But, I will say that Host can come off as condescending at times, almost like she has all the answers and her way is the right way. She goes into the conversation to convert her thoughts and if something doesn’t seem right she calls it out BLATANTLY. I don’t want to listen to her correcting how these award-winning designers need advice from the podcast host. I want to hear them speak without feeling like they must explain themselves and feel comfortable and confident with their technique. Because of this, I will rate it a 1. I hope that as she continues to make these podcast sessions with these incredible designers, she can listen and enjoy FULLY. And not go in with the agenda of raising an eyebrow if something doesn't seem to her standards... I do enjoy listening to the amazing designers she has on. That's why I listen!

    Incredible Designer Resource
    This is my absolute favorite podcast and I listen religiously and get so much out of each episode. It’s such a treasure trove for designers. Keep up your amazing work!
  • Connor VanWarren
    My favorite design podcast!
    This podcast has helped me beyond what I can explain in a review! I have told so many of my designer friends about it, especially any of them that are just starting out on their own. It’s truly like taking a class on how to start your own design business. Each episode has a wealth of information (so much so that half the time I listen, I’m pulling out a pen to take notes)! Anastasia is so relatable and asks the questions that all of us are wondering. I can’t speak highly enough of The interior Collective and cannot wait for a new season to come out! I’m also very excited to finally attend Design Camp in April, which I learned about through this podcast :)
  • Rachel Pocta
    So insightful!
    Thank you so much to Anastasia and IDCO for doing this podcast! As a brand new designer/student, I’ve found that the insights in these interviews have given me encouragement and substantial tips on what a design business looks like. Thank you!

    An Invaluable Resource for New Designers
    I am 1 year into my business/ career pivot as a designer and I’m not sure I would have felt confident enough to take the leap without this podcast. I honestly get emotional thinking about what a gift this information is. Truly invaluable for anyone trying to start from scratch. The caliber of guests is A+ and Anastasia’s detail oriented, humble, and operationally sound POV really shines through. I’m so grateful for this free resource, which has me salivating for a Design Camp trip someday. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, for helping facilitate my dream career ♥️ - Averyl Andrews Yaco
  • KrissyRowan
    Essential
    My single most helpful resource as a designer. Everything Anastasia does is excellent, especially love this format.
  • abidfan75959
    Filling in the design gap
    Like the title says, this podcast fills in the gap in design questions we all mostly have. Not only does Anastasia make the listening feel like a close friend she hits the questions that make you go “ooooh that’s exactly what I was wondering/thinking!”. Take a break at work, put on driving while sourcing or sit with a large binder and take note. This podcast is a must for those diving in to design or putting a toes in as well. Subscribe is the best advice I can give . Sam
  • Mal2bati
    So useful!!!
    The most useful podcasts for interior designers. Can’t find this kind of information anywhere else.
  • Emskirose
    Immaculate Knowledge Spreading
    I’m so happy I came upon this podcast from a YouTube rabbit hole. Thank you for dispersing ID knowledge— as a practicing designer I feel professionally nourished consuming this invaluable content.
  • Jana Roach
    Make sure you have a notebook handy
    I can’t get enough of this podcast! There’s actual MEAT! It’s to-the-point and full of amazing actionable takeaways! Her questions are SO good. I often find myself thinking of a question that I’d want to ask the guest and then Anastasia asks it! I’ve pulled over to take notes 😂. I also love that she honors the guest’s accomplishments but it’s not 15 minutes of fluff and overly-gushy back and forth compliments 🤭 favorite design podcast by far!!!
  • md45678999
    No thanks
    I’ve listened to a few of these and found them informative. The fourth, and last, I listened to she told her guest designer that her processes ‘raised red flags’ because it wasn’t how she teaches others. Like what? Such a elitist statement. Moving on.
  • addbean
    Thank you Anastasia!
    So happy to have someone sharing industry knowledge so openly to help others. Thank you so much!!

    Obsessed!
    My favorite design podcast by far. With Anastasia at the helm you experience her genius, warmth and ability to hone in on the questions listeners really want the answers to. I’m a huge fan and recommend it to designers and enthusiasts alike.
  • Dsgnrchk
    Thank you
    I am beyond thrilled that you all have this podcast. As an educated interior designer of 30 years, and watching this huge influx of HGTV trained decorators as of late that I feel devalues our talents, it is critical there is a source like yours that identifies and breaks down our expertise, skill level, and defines our value and worth in this industry. It is also an incredible source for anyone who wants to go into the design business and understand what it’s all about.
  • Hoffman Interior Design Group
    Amazing!
    Your podcast has been so instrumental in getting my business off the ground. Huge thanks! Can’t wait for more.
  • Itstohardpickinganameonthisapp
    Exceptional Resource for new designers!
    This podcast has been an incredible resource for me as I’m still in my first year of running my own studio. Anastasia and the guests don’t hold back anything and it’s so great to feel the empowerment and sense of community from experienced and successful designers. Looking foreword to season 3!!
  • 01echogirl

    Anastasia is amazing!
    Anastasia - you are so brilliant, kind and funny and I am so grateful that you take the time out of your undoubtedly busy schedule to create these discussions. The people you have on, plus the way you thoughtfully and poignantly interact with them is so inspiring. Thank you!
  • Designenthus
    A MUST listen for designers
    This podcast is so informative, and Anastasia is an amazing host. She asks the questions I’m thinking as I’m listening, in a very straightforward and practical way. As someone who is in the early years of running their own ID biz, this has been so helpful to hear stories and insider info from industry trail by blazers. Some other ID podcasts either make me feel behind or like I’m not doing enough, or they are negative. This podcast is a breath of fresh air. Keep ‘em coming!
  • Kat Kane
    So glad I listened!!
    I just Love Anastasia’s down to earth and super informative interview style. Thank you so much!!
  • jennette q
    Like the podcast
    Buts it’s really cringeworthy how she gushes over the guests. I wish it would be kept more professional. Also less scripted.

So thankful to have stumbled upon this podcast!
