🎨 From Solo Designer to Business Visionary: Christi’s Journey on The Shift Spotlight™

What happens when a creative visionary builds a booming business and stays true to her values? On this episode of The Shift Spotlight™, we sit down with Christi Barbour, who grew her design practice from a one-woman show into a thriving team of 17 delivering commercial, luxury residential, and mixed-use projects.

But this isn’t just about scaling bigger — it’s about scaling intentionally. Christi shares how she’s balancing creativity, leadership, and business growth without losing the heart that started it all.

In this inspiring conversation, we cover:

🚀 How EOS® gave her structure, accountability, and room to scale

🧭 The emotional (and strategic) realities of succession planning

💚 Why building a “heart of house” 💚 team transformed her culture

🎨 How she’s keeping creativity alive inside a serious business machine

If you’re a creative, a leader, or just someone striving to grow without selling your soul, this episode will give you both wisdom and fuel for the journey.
