Reinventing Home and Business: Abby Guild’s Inspiring Interior Design Journey Whether you’re an entrepreneur starting over or just looking for inspiration to make your own space feel more like you, this episode will open your eyes to the beauty—and the opportunity—of reinvention. We’re excited to introduce you to Abby Guild, the creative force behind Abby Guild Interior Design and Decorating. Having recently relocated from Los Angeles to Upper Arlington, Abby brings with her an impressive background: a professional certification from FIDM in Los Angeles, a bachelor’s degree from Boston University, accolades from the American Society of Interior Design, and projects ranging from boutique hotels to stylish residences showcased on Houzz and Vogue LA. In this conversation with hosts Brett Johnson and Katie Ellis, Abby shares her journey of relaunching her design business in Columbus, navigating big life changes, and finding professional purpose after a decade devoted to raising her kids. She opens up about battling imposter syndrome, building a sense of community from scratch, and why creating spaces that nurture wellbeing is at the heart of her design approach. Plus, she lets us in on her travels across six continents and how those global experiences shape her philosophy on what it means to make a house a home. Grandview Heights Here are three key takeaways from her conversation with Katie Ellis and Brett Johnson: Embrace New Beginnings: Abby reminds us that starting over professionally is an opportunity to recalibrate around your values and experience. It’s a chance to ask, "Who am I this time?" and shape your business to match the person you’ve become. Build Community Organically: Moving to Columbus from LA during COVID, Abby learned not to force connections. Authentic community forms naturally when you follow your interests and let the right people gravitate toward you. Design for Wellness: As an interior designer, Abby advocates for biophilic design—spaces that foster a connection to nature and prioritize the well-being of their inhabitants. Even a simple change like maximizing natural light can transform how a space feels.
