    This has been one of your best videos by far about the amount effort that is put into a successful business, team, project and work ethic. So glad you go into depth about the real life of being a business owner, interior designer, creating a brand and being a true inspiration! You are truly one of a kind 💕

    Not only are you a role model for me, I honestly feel like you're my online mentor. I work in accounting and your messaging about hard work hit home with me. Also love the affirmation at the end. Thank you for sharing with us 💗

  • @aishah5244
    @aishah5244 5 лет назад +7

    I am only midway through the video, but I believe it is important to note, when you do what you love, it is much easier to put in the long hours and go the extra mile. Go hard with anything and everything that you do, yes, but when it's your passion, the going hard hits your spirit different. When you are putting in long hours for a business or company, where the work is outside the scope of what you love, the tasks and long hours become tiring and draining. If this is you, have a plan to transition and do not forget your end game, your goal! Although K looks tired (no shade), she is loving every minute of it, good or bad. xoxo

    Hi Karin,
    I am a student in Omaha, Nebraska and I am graduating with an Interior Design degree in just 10 short days.
    I have watched your videos throughout my entire education at my college, and every video you have released has put a smile on my face. You make me realize that all the hard work is worth it, and that I have endless potential.
    Just your attitude and motivation towards design alone inspired so many of my projects throughout school. And absorbing your videos on a daily basis makes me realize just how important the business side of Interior Design is.
    Thank you for all that you do, for putting an effort into posting this videos on a weekly basis. You truly are inspiring lives, and you and your team are amazing people and such talented designers.
    Have a fabulous week!! 💕

    I have been searching through almost all the interior design channels to find the perfect one, that not only teaches me how to select the right furniture and furnishings but also shows me the way to interact and meet the needs of the client. You are doing something different from all the channels with multi-million subscribers. Thankyou so much for being an inspiration to aspiring designers like myself. ❤️

    Being in this field is really really hard especially if your a woman, a year ago i was ready to give up and try another field. But when i saw your videos by chance in youtube and watch it, it somehow gave me encouragement and i felt like "i can do this " and i hope so too. I don't even know how to express myself anymore but thank you for the amazing video.

    You’re so right - there really isn’t enough examples of hardworking people out there on the internet, that aren’t social media stars.

You deserve all the success!

That would be very exciting for me since I am into design and construction right now. ❤❤❤ All the love from the Philippines. Xoxo. 🇵🇭

    "it's so ugly that it looks good"! I said that to my work colleague on Tuesday while browsing through our huge collection of second-hand items! Crazy! and after seeing this being said in the video, I was IN! Completely SUBSCRIBED to #KarinBohn videos and design ideas... Pick something "unusual", "old" or "ugly" and turn it into that "aha" or "wow" reaction, and you have ART, CREATIVITY and INSPIRATION working to their fullest! - the same goes with clothes ;) get wild!

Thank you Karin for being such a pivotal inspiration and someone I aspire to be and have watched since I’ve been developing as a designer. This series means so so much to me ! A fan from New York :)
