Ten Steps to Creating your Own Personal Space

.
I recently had the pleasure of joining my friend and client Steven Shalowitz as a guest on his popular podcast, The One Way Ticket Show.
.
If you haven’t tuned in, Steven’s show has an interesting premise: He engages an extremely broad range of guests from journalist Charles Osgood, to politico Anthony Scaramucci, to fashion icon Tim Gunn, to entrepreneur India Hicks, religious leaders, writers, educators, and many others, typically ending the conversation with the question about where they would go with a one-way ticket to, any place in space or time. Destinations may be in the past, present, future, real, or imagined with no chance of coming back.
.
To mark the 10th anniversary of “The One Way Ticket Show” podcast, Steven is doing an entire themed series with the premise of a “One Way Ticket to Optimal Mental, Physical and Spiritual Well-Being.”

Having been through the process of creating Steven’s home in New York City, I was happy to discuss and share my thoughts on creating your own personal space. You can follow this link to tune into our conversation.

And while we are on the subject of personal spaces–here’s the dining room in my historic Brooklyn Heights duplex. I invite you to join me on a virtual tour of the rest of my home by clicking on the image, or by following this link.

Luxury In Full Effect Podcast

Luxury In Full Effect Podcast - Episode 5

I was interviewed by David Frangioni for his podcast LUXURY IN FULL EFFECT. During our spirited conversation I shared how I manifested my childhood wish to become an interior designer; about my working relationships with fashion design titans Michael Kors & Calvin Klein; about my approach to interior design; and perhaps most importantly about how technology has changed the design industry.

In this episode, David Frangioni sits down with Glenn Gissler, interior designer and president at Glenn Gissler Design, and discusses Glenn’s journey of manifesting his childhood dreams of being an interior designer. He tells us all about how he entered the field of Interior Design, the ups and downs he encountered along the way, and how he got to create designs of luxury for clients such as Micheal Kors and Calvin Klein. “What we do is to create what I call the context for [the clients’] future to take place,” Glenn says. How does this approach differ from others in his field? What attribute has made Glenn stand out? How has he created a career in the world of “luxury in full effect?”
