🔧 Useful Resources

🎬 Video: Integrating AI Into Your Interior Design Practice

Dropping next week! This 30-minute video (complete with an exercise sheet and example prompts), will walk you through practical ways to incorporate AI into your business.

From time management to business planning, AI can help you work smarter, not harder. The link to the video will be shared in the Facebook group in the middle of the coming week - don’t miss it!


🖋 Journaling: My Week 2 Progress

I have just uploaded my Week 2 journal entry to the group. Honestly, this practice promises to be a game-changer, it keeps my focus sharp and prevents me from drifting for weeks at a time.

It feels raw, and I often wonder how it looks from the outside (my starting numbers are very low) but it’s incredibly powerful for keeping my goals on track, and I have faith that the numbers will grow throughout the year. I highly recommend you try it, and if you do, please feel free to share to the group. 


✨ Final Thought

At Hothouse, we’re all about creating disciplined, focused progress. We follow nine key principles to help us stay consistent and motivated:

 


🤝 Let’s Grow the Group Together!

Everything’s better with a buddy, and Hothouse is no different. If you know an interior designer who’d love to be part of a free year of business coaching, share this newsletter or invite them to join the Facebook group!

2025 is full of potential—let’s make it extraordinary.

See you in Hothouse :-)
