124. Designing with Traction, Intention, and Compassion

In this episode I have the pleasure of introducing you to the dynamic duo behind Lima Stanley Design, a health and wellness-focused interior and landscape design company based in Dallas, Texas. Daniel and Rome share their journey into incorporating sustainability and wellness practices into their business, particularly in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. Daniel reflects on his original passion for sustainability back in Brazil, while Rome delves into his experience at the Parsons School of Design, where he acquired knowledge in health, materials, and sustainable practices. The duo discusses how they seamlessly merged their expertise in landscape and interior design to create a unique and sustainable approach to their projects. They emphasize the importance of education in their design process, guiding clients on materials, practices, and the overall goal of creating a healthy home. In this episode we explore the Entrepreneurial Operating System (EOS) and its impact on Lima Stanley Design's growth. Daniel, with a creative background, acknowledges the overwhelming nature of business operations but highlights how EOS, particularly the book "Traction" by Gino Wickman, simplified the process. Rome, with a business administration background, emphasizes the value of EOS in providing a roadmap for running a successful business. Thank you for listening to this episode. I hope it inspired you and gave you some insight as you build your interior design business.   Meet our guests  Daniel Stanley and Rome Lima-Stanley: Daniel Stanley and Rome Lima-Stanley are the principals and founders of Lima-Stanley Design.
