In this episode, Zoey sits down with Lauren, partner at All New Designs, to discuss her journey from corporate marketing at Frito Lay to building a multifaceted career in short term rentals through rental arbitrage, property management, and interior design. Lauren shares how taking risks, investing in mentorship, and staying resilient through early setbacks helped her grow a portfolio and expand into designing high performing spaces for both short term rentals and multifamily properties.

They explore the importance of community, choosing the right business partners, and creating scroll stopping design that drives higher nightly rates and occupancy. Lauren also shares practical insights on durability, ROI focused design decisions, and why investing in cohesive design early can dramatically impact long term profitability and the ability to scale.
