New year, new messes to sort out. Needless to say, in spite of cheers for 2020 to end, the start of 2021 has been its very own rich tapestry of dumpster fires. So while typically this is the season of losing weight/working out/prioritizing sleep/not drinking/setting financial goals/learning a new language, right now, “just getting by” seems like an ambitious enough goal.

As an interior designer, @shirleyparksdesign spent a decade helping clients turn ho-hum homes into architectural gems. But when her children hit middle school, she decided she needed to take a beat and focus on family. But that didn’t mean giving up her passion for interior design. Instead, she shifted into renovating her own homes with the intention of flipping them for profit. “We’re currently on our fourth project house,” says Shirley, who has since re-launched her interior design business. “Now that my kids are older, I’m less stretched for time. Plus, I feel like I’ve earned the equivalent of a master’s degree through my four renovations and I’m excited to pass on what I’ve learned to my clients.” For the full story and more photos, go to the link in our bio. 📸: @christopherstark.
