Crispin is just a joy to work with. My business partner and I booked a discovery call with her awhile ago and she gave us so much value in that one free call that we just had to book a 2-hour business audit with her. We've had some struggles in our business over the past nine months and just really needed to get an interior design focussed, but outside opinion on our processes, pricing, and overall business practices. Our industry can be very secretive and Crispin is a breath of fresh air. She is an open book, friendly but straightforward, has a wealth of knowledge, and is brimming with never-ending encouragement and support. She was able to highlight a couple areas where change was needed and while it hasn't been that long since we made a few tweaks it already feels like it's making a difference. Thank you Crispin, for allowing us to ask questions that we had nowhere else to ask and for giving us the answers and guidance that we so desperately needed!
After purchasing several invaluable resources from Design Life Inc., booking a session with Crispin felt like a natural next step—and a Christmas gift to myself to close out 2025. I knew it would provide the mentorship I’ve been craving, and it absolutely delivered.
My session with Crispin was a powerful reminder that this is my business, and I’m allowed to run it in a way that works for me—even if that looks different from industry norms. My processes should support the types of clients I work with and are meant to evolve over time. No two projects follow the same path, and adjusting as a project progresses isn’t a failure—it’s part of good design practice.
Crispin reminded me why I started my own business in the first place: to do things differently and intentionally. I’m heading into the New Year with renewed clarity, confidence, and a clear game plan for continuing to refine and grow my business.
Crispin is one of the most genuine and open people I"ve worked with. She asked a few questions before we scheduled our meeting to better understand what I was wanting to focus our time on, and was super prepared on the day of our call. She dug right into some of the things I could change and gave so many helpful ideas and suggestions. But for me, it was the feeling that I was supported and encouraged that stood out the most. I clicked with her style and really appreciate what she shared with me on our call - thank you so much!
Crispin’s session was packed with actionable insights and industry expertise. Her approach to design and the business behind it was refreshingly clear and direct, making complex concepts feel manageable. I left the session with practical strategies I have been able to implement to improve my process. Highly recommend to any designer looking to elevate their practice.
My one-on-one session with Crispin was incredibly valuable and insightful. She answered all my questions and concerns with kindness and expertise. I truly appreciated her guidance in navigating the challenges of my plans to start a business. Our conversation was relaxed, and she provided professional advice that was both practical and encouraging.
I had a great session with Crispin - she really helped crystalize some of my current struggles and gave me the confidence boost to put things into action and to just dive in. Her insights and experience came through very clearly and she was super generous with her information, an open book. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her for coaching!
