90: A Conversation with Rachel Moriarty

How do you overcome FOMO when you have to say “no” to new opportunities that come your way? How do you develop your self-concept, when you were accustomed to working in a strict, corporate environment before becoming a designer? What should you expect when going to trade show events, like High Point Market?

In this episode, Rebecca and Shaun speak with Rachel Moriarty of Rachel Moriarty Interiors, to discuss:

• The difficulties in saying “no” to cool opportunities that present themselves
• Being like a diamond and performing well under pressure
• A.I. renderings and how crazy realistic they look
• Rachel’s unique job history before becoming an interior designer
• Feeling exhausted after presentations and speeches
• Creating and fostering relationships with others in the industry
• Our experiences with the One Room Challenge
• Appreciating the perspectives of designers with different cultural and regional backgrounds
• High Point Market - It is huge and intimidating, but so worth it
