#49: How to design for YOU with Jonathan Adler
It's an exciting podcast day because I'm catching up with Jonathan Adler, my longtime design hero and imaginary bff. We chat about his design secrets, his amazing homes, the importance of collecting vintage, and he even gives me some rather harsh tattoo advice. This episode is filled with so many gems of wisdom. I know you're going to love it! Thank you JA for sitting down to chat with us, and visit the show notes at abeautifulmess.com/podcast

#48: Second Lives
This week's episode is about later in life career changes. In our culture, it's unfortunately pretty common for people to feel like if they haven't started and achieved a dream by the time they are 30, 40, 50 or beyond, that it's too late. This episode is ALL about how it's not too late, and in fact, many of our favorite creative icons started their careers later than you might think.
