Episode Synopsis


Join John and Wendy as they pop some Veuve and dive into the designer’s dilemma. What do you do when your client’s style is the complete opposite of yours, and how do you still deliver a dream home that feels like them, not you. Then they get into the most unrealistic renovation expectations they hear all the time, from timelines and pricing to what contractors can and cannot promise before walls get opened. They also unpack the sustainability lie, how to spot greenwashing, which eco claims are real, and why fully “green” projects can turn into a nightmare fast. Plus, a listener question on where to splurge versus save during a renovation, including kitchens, bathrooms, floors, outdoor spaces, and curb appeal.Cocktail: Veuve Clicquot with fresh berries Garnish with berries and enjoy chilled.
