Ep 7 - DIYing from an interior designer’s perspective, how to win an official DIY Award, how to feel empowered as a woman DIYer w/ Liz Morrow (@liz.morrow)

On the show today, Liz and I discuss her insane path where she began her career journey in Alaska in commercial fishing as a teenager, to becoming a wedding photographer, to an interior designer, and now a full-time DIYer. Her unique journey gives her an amazing perspective on budget design & tackling huge DIY projects on her own. We talk about the DIY landscape and how the majority of people in construction-related activities tend to be men, and how she hopes to empower a new wave of women to pick up some power tools to transform their spaces on their own. My favorite thing Liz has done so far for the DIY community is her annual DIY Awards where the community nominates/votes on different categories to reward creators of all sizes for their projects/work. Liz has a retreat coming up in the fall in Alaska that you won’t want to miss if you’re a DIYer, so be sure to message her on Instagram if you’re interested (@liz.morrow)!
