How'd She Do That?

In today’s episode, Emily documents our stats for the podcast as of April 29th, in hopes of peeling back the curtain on what it looks like to grow an audience and continue to brainstorm what it looks like to make a business out of a podcast. Growth is a hot topic on social media and for business owners, but it seems many wait to "arrive" before sharing numbers online. If you were to ask about our sponsorships, we would share this inside scoop with you so why not share with our listeners as well? In addition, this will be a fun futuristic episode for us all to listen back to and smile - let's keep growing and learning together! This is a quick and fun episode that we hope brings some encouragement to your weekend!

On today's episode of How'd She Do That? Emily welcomes Christina Kim onto the show!  Christina is the principal designer and owner of Christina Kim Interior Design, a New Jersey-based firm specializing in the ground-up construction of modern beach homes. Once an aspiring actress, her obsession with design and innate curiosity lead her to the world of interiors. Her work is influenced by the scenes in LA, NYC, and Paris. She is guided by her design education, travels, and a lifetime of training her eye.  When Christina isn't designing a stunning new home, collaborating with clients, or sharing her story with women like us, she is likely hunting for vintage treasures or spending time with her husband and four children in the Jersey shore town of Manasquan! This episode is a must listen and a must share! Enjoy!

In today's episode, we welcome Bridget Green, founder of Milagro Collective, onto the show! Milagro has provided their customers with heirloom quality, handmade oushak rugs of any size since 2018. Milagro, Spanish for “Miracle,” and Collective together form the perfect recipe for design. Bridget's “collective” style stems from the most prolific Southern design value: mixing the old with the new. Her goal is to help customers find their “home heaven” by balancing loved antiques with fresh, modern design. Until recently, Bridget operated as a one-woman show but that all changed on November 11, 2021, when she welcomed her first baby, Lucy, to the team. In this episode, you'll love hearing about Bridget's swoon-worthy textile designs, curated for the southern home as well as her experience running a business, becoming a mother and ultimately leaving a Fortune 200 company to go full-time with her dream job - the one she created herself! It's a must listen and a must share! Enjoy!

Scouring the internet for quality forever-pieces is her superpower and sharing her finds with her friends (that’s us!) is what brings her joy. You'll love hearing about how she finds her curated selection of the best in fashion with a side of beauty, home, and lifestyle. Mallory lives in Los Angeles with her husband Ben and dog Sadie.  This is one you'll definitely want to send to a friend!
