One of the best kept secrets in the interior design industry is designing for vacation homes. How do you do it? How do you get into it? What are the benefits? Today’s guests, Melinda Cahill and Suzanne Glavin of North Shore Nest, discuss the ins and outs of vacation home design. Stay tuned!
“We began North Shore Nest in 2004 from our basements in Glenview. Prior to launching, we were doing design projects on the side for family and friends while we worked our full time careers. When the market crashed, we made the decision to launch North Shore Nest full time, and we have spent the last seventeen years designing spaces for working professionals and young families along the North Shore. Our shared passion for great design paired with sensibility allows us to transform interiors into warm, livable spaces that stand the test of time. By taking a fresh updated approach to traditional styling and building rooms with layers, we are able to provide depth and individuality allowing our clients to live beautifully everyday. We are based in Glenview Illinois, serving the Chicago area and surrounding suburbs, as well as the Lake Geneva Wisconsin area. We enjoy the diversity and learning opportunities offered by working in communities other than our own.”

In this episode, Darla is joined by Katie McDonald to discuss the importance of self-care for business owners. Katie shares her personal journey from corporate burnout to wellness advocate and coach. The conversation delves into how self-neglect can impact both personal wellbeing and business success. Darla and Katie also explore actionable self-care strategies and the challenges high achievers face in balancing their drive with the need for self-compassion.
Decades ago, the demands of Katie McDonald’s corporate career occupied her every waking moment. She was left feeling depleted and depressed—suffering from spiraling mental and physical health crises that threatened her life. Left with no choice but to transform her body-mind relationship, Katie abandoned her corporate job and healed herself. Fully recovered from years of self-neglect, Katie now works with high achievers who are taking care of business at the expense of taking care of themselves.
