I love them so much. So inspiring to see women...black women in a field that I only saw white women dominate coming up. I had the pleasure of meeting Tavia and was so blown away. She was so pleasant and nice! She spoke with me as if she knew me and not as someone bothering her. It completely made my birthday weekend!

[@ShesOffScript]

My thoughts exactly when I first came across Tavia and Monet online. They do amazing work and are really approachable.

I’m a Black interior designer trying to grow my business in NYC so I def needed to see this! The way I’m gonna watch this weekly 😅. Thank you all involved for this interview 🙌🏾🙏🏾

[@brandoncruz2802]

I Love, Love, Love this interview. Big up Jamaica. First of all because I am a mixed Jamaican it's good to see my people prosper, but as a designer that worked for high end cabinet companies in New York City for a long time and starting my own design firm and struggling in a new area is difficult. It is refreshing to see an unpretentious representation of what we do. HGTV is great but it doesn't truly show the stressors we deal with on a regular basis; building a business, timeframes, unseen structural issues, branding and marketing. It was great to hear real responses where a lot of interviews seem contrived. It helped me better mentally handle going from known in the city to nobody where I'm at. Thank you.

I'm a BIG fan of Forbes + Masters, hearing thier story just makes me love them even more. Thank you for this wonderful episode.

[@tyneirbethea8718]

It's amazing how ID as a career has been so foreign to our community - I had a round about entry very similar to Tavias and Monets experience. Kudos to you ladies!!!

[@Klish47]

I'd love to watch a Netflix show with these women in it ❤️❤️❤️❤️ and you're doing a great job love these interviews ❤️

[@ShesOffScript]

That would be amazing to watch!

[@ingridagnew9984]

Tribal Chic is my love to incorporate ethnic pieces that are unique, textured and accents and grass or woven baskets, fur throws and fur throws, handcrafted artifacts from Africa, South America and Islandic countries, as well as textured pillows and fur helped me design my first did an incredible job!

[@sadiqapetty6586]

Awesome story!! Very inspirational! God works in mysterious ways and so happy you were able to “lose your mind” and allow him to work in you guys favor! 🙌🏾🙌🏾 I’m looking forward to starting “late” but still never too late to live my passion. Let’s see what God has in store for me. Thanks for this!

[@louisadesigns]

Great interview. I am a young African American male that is looking forward to get into the architecture field and work for myself so this is inspiring. Great job 👏🏽

[@cetriyasArtnComicsChannel]

Thank you thank you for this. I'm glad to have found this channel and specifically this ep, as I"m also come to terms how much fear I have with moving forward into a new creative business designing patterns for interior designers.

[@ashleydavis2111]

This podcast has been so inspiring! Ive gone through some major life changes because I just wasn’t happy and I was in a toxic work environment.

Thank you Michelle!

[@jtubeu]

This is awesome! I'm quite impressed with the success. I have a question about your design team. I was wondering how you acquired such a large team. Are they actually employed exclusively to your company or are they designers who are available to use while they also work for themselves or other companies?

[@interiorDidi]

U gave me one reason for not to quit

[@shandinoir]

This story is very relatable!

[@ShesOffScript]

They really are!
