Summary

Brad sits down with designer Emily Marek, known as Emmy Couture, to talk about building a luxury design firm around trust, process, and deeply personal client relationships. Emmy shares how she went from doing everything herself to leading a team, setting clearer expectations, and creating spaces that feel refined without becoming untouchable. For builders, designers, and residential construction professionals, this conversation is a reminder that the best projects are shaped by relationships, systems, and collaboration long before install day.
