Tariffs are here, and they’re affecting more than just prices.

In this episode of the Interior Design Business Podcast, I’m talking about how to navigate the ripple effects of tariffs on your design business, especially when it comes to client communication, purchase proposals, and protecting your profit margins.

You’ll learn how to talk to clients when pricing changes unexpectedly, what to include in your contracts to protect yourself, and how to think outside the box when your go-to products are no longer available or affordable. It’s not just about managing change, it’s about leading through it with clarity, boundaries, and confidence.

In this episode, I cover:

  • Why tariffs are a communication—not just pricing—issue
  • What to say to clients (and what not to!)
  • How to audit and protect open purchase orders
  • Key clauses to add to your letters of agreement
  • The mindset shift that makes you a trusted leader, not a stressed-out designer
