On this episode of The Reframing Design Podcast, Casey and Rainey sit down with the one and only Corey Damen Jenkins—renowned interior designer and CEO of his firm. Corey shares his bold leap from the automotive industry into the world of high-end design.
He opens up about the hustle, rejection, and grit it took to make his mark. From cold-calls to magazine covers, his story is equal parts inspiring and jaw-dropping.
We dive into his design philosophy, his love for storytelling through spaces, and why kindness in the creative world is non-negotiable. Corey also gets real about mentorship, confidence, and building a career rooted in purpose.
