Calm and Confidence Start with Structure: Designers Who Succeed Use Clear Processes

The biggest challenges designers face aren't typically about creativity – they’re about bringing that creativity to life with smooth, well-organized projects. Without clear processes, every project feels chaotic behind the scenes, making it difficult to plan confidently, meet deadlines, and maintain that professional image clients expect. This constant worry about “pulling it all together” is overwhelming, making it nearly impossible to focus on creativity, establish client trust, or feel in control.

Interior Designers - your creativity is a gift!  You’re incredible at designing spaces and transforming lives.

But here’s the problem: No one has taught you how to truly manage a project from start to finish, let alone juggle multiple complex projects at once with seamless ease. And most business programs aren’t tailored to the specific demands of a designer’s work, leaving you feeling frustrated, exhausted and out-of-control.

At Designer Sanity, we bridge that gap – helping you create clear, reliable processes tailored specifically for interior designers, so you can run your projects smoothly, inspire client confidence, and truly enjoy your work.

I’ve been there... and I have a system that works.

As an interior designer with 20 years of experience running my own business, I totally get the stress of juggling multiple design projects at once.

There are plenty of design resources out there, but few really help with managing the craziness of our projects. Frustrated by this, I created my own system through trial and error, and it’s been a game-changer for my business.

Introducing The Design Roadmap System, now available for fellow interior designers. It’s all about helping you feel calm, confident, and in control.

If you’re looking for practical solutions tailored to our industry’s unique challenges and want a coach who really gets what you’re going through, you’re in the right place. Designer Sanity is here to help.

Running your design projects can make you crazy.

What my clients are saying...

“The Designer Sanity Program is the best money I’ve spent! The investment has paid for itself over and over again. Once you have this system in place, the sky is the limit regarding how much you want to make, how much you want to grow your business, or even how much and when you want to work. I can’t say enough good things about Betsy’s brilliance in coming up with this system and how generous she is to make this available to other designers."

Christy M. Bowen, CMKBD, UDCP, Twelve Stones Design

“Working with Betsy has not only helped me feel more organized and able to plan weeks and months down the road with clarity, but it has given me language to discuss my process with my clients and employees.  The confidence this had instilled is priceless.  Betsy's industry experience coupled with her kind and patient demeanor made learning her process easy.  And there is simply no substitute for applying a new business practice from someone who actually works in the interior design industry and understands the nuances and challenges.”

Jeanne Rodgers, Cleo Graham Design Studio

“I used to look at my projects as one big overwhelming task, which was paralyzing!  The Design Roadmap System helps me break them down into small, achievable steps so I can take action.  Instead of feeling overwhelmed, I’m in control.

After 35 years in the design business, I finally feel like I am able to take control of my projects instead of my projects controlling me. I got my nights and weekends back!"

I can’t wait for you to feel the calm and confidence Designer Sanity can bring to your business.

When I started my interior design business over 20 years ago, I knew a lot about design, but very little about how to actually organize and complete a project from start to finish in an orderly manner.  Over the years, my work and my mental and physical health suffered under the strain of the constant stress and overwhelm that this created in my business. 

Even though I loved design, I knew I needed a better system for how to run my design projects, and I searched for years to find a solution.  Frustrated that I couldn't find anything that met my unique needs as an interior designer, I finally created my own system for managing my projects and used it with great success in my business. I called it "The Design Roadmap" system, and with it my creativity went up, my stress went down and I found myself enjoying my design work like never before. 

Noticing that every designer I knew was working under the same constant feelings of stress that were now a thing of the past for me, I started teaching my Design Roadmap System to other designers so they could enjoy the same feelings of freedom and calm that I had come to enjoy in my business.  

Just because your Interior Design business is incredibly complicated doesn't mean that you have to feel stressed.  There is a way to gain calm control over your business, and it's easier than you think.  It's as simple as creating a design process that works for you and learning how to follow it. 

Easy. 

It's so simple that I'm committed to teaching every designer I can about how they too can feel this calm control in their business so they can enjoy greater creativity and joy in their business.  

For real - it is possible for you to get a handle on your projects and show up feeling calm, confident, and in control of your work. I know it is, because I’m living it... and so are my clients.

Are you ready to see what's on the other side of the chaos?  Let's talk!
