EP 10: The Art of Saying Yes

In this episode of On the Move: The Art of Installation, Kelly and Caralee explore the deceptively simple phrase every designer, project manager, and installer knows too well: “Yes.” From the little asks (“Can you move that just a bit higher?”) to the big requests that push schedules and stretch resources, the art of saying yes can make or break a project.

With wit and hard-earned honesty, Kelly and Caralee share real stories from the field—times when saying yes created magic, and times when it nearly backfired.

You’ll hear:

• Why “yes” is both essential and dangerous in the white glove world.
• The balance between keeping clients happy and protecting your team’s sanity.
• How to turn unexpected challenges into opportunities for trust.
• Lessons learned from installs where saying yes went beautifully—and when it didn’t.

Whether you’re a designer managing client expectations or an installer navigating last-minute requests, this episode will give you a thoughtful, humorous, and practical look at why “yes” is never just one word in the world of interior installations.
