How do you pivot from catastrophic personal loss into building a thriving, full-time business?
Realtor and luxury fashion designer Chantel McKnight (founder of Denim Overdose) proves that rock-bottom moments—like losing her home in a fire—can become divine pivot points to leave a 9-to-5 and build a profitable, multi-business lifestyle.
In this episode of Dallas, Texas: What's Good, host Brianna Jovahn sits down with Chantel McKnight at the W Hotel during the What She Said showcase. Chantel shares how childhood inspirations (That's So Raven, True Jackson, VP, and Rugrats' Charlotte Pickles) sparked her passion for custom fashion, why knowing your numbers is key to bank approval, and her step-by-step process for custom design consultations.
