103. Why Your Interior Design Projects Keep Going Over Budget

Episode notes

Send Katie a Text Message!! Have you ever wrapped up a project and thought… how did we get here again? You started with a clear vision, a solid plan, and a client who seemed aligned. But somewhere between the mood board and install day, the budget unraveled. Now the client is stressed, you’re reworking the same design over and over, and a project that once felt exciting feels heavy. In this episode, I’m breaking down the real reason interior design projects go over budget - and it’s probably not what you think. It’s not that you’re bad at budgeting. It’s not just inflation. And it’s definitely not just your client. It’s your process. I’m walking you through the structural shifts that will help you protect your budget, your time, and your client relationships - so your projects stay profitable and far less stressful.
