Yvette and Kelly are soul sisters and have been starting, building and scaling businesses together for over a decade now.

More about today's guest my bestie Yvette Freeman -- For more than twenty years, Yvette Freeman has been designing and building award-winning, luxurious, and unique spaces in the District of Columbia and across the Southeast. This passion has taken her around the country and throughout Europe rummaging through barns, warehouses, flea markets, and estate sales. Along the way, she’s reclaimed materials, furniture and home décor — some centuries old — to incorporate into her distinctive, contemporary designs. Yvette’s two-decade obsession has become more than a personal hobby. It’s a story of professional excellence and commitment to the preservation and repurposing of some of the most magnificent mixed-use and single-family homes ever built. If you ask Yvette she will tell you that every piece has a story and you should collect what you love, if you do that, you’ll never go wrong.

So fun
A fun and causal way to chat with and learn more about small business owners, in and around the northern Virginia area and beyond! Kelly is a great interviewer!
Interview
Interview Tracy McLaughlin!
Easy & Fun!
Loved listening to the first two episodes! I love the themes of motherhood and running a business (or two!), how it’s not all insta worthy and that’s ok! Can’t wait for more interviews. 🙂
