    Dec 8 2025

    Before you fall headfirst into demo day or get swept away by your Pinterest board, there are a few renovation mistakes that can cost you thousands—and most homeowners don’t even know they’re making them. In this episode, I’m calling out the biggest budget-busters I see all the time… and how you can avoid the stress, the chaos, and the expensive do-overs.

And more importantly, I’ll show you exactly what to do instead so you can save money, stay sane, and move forward with confidence.

    If you’re planning a remodel and want total clarity before you spend a dime, my Pocket Designer Session is your next step—one hour, zero guessing.
