Episode 22: Disney to Design: Schumetta’s Story (Part 2)

Описание: In Part Two of this two-part episode of The Real Pink Diaries, we continue Schumetta McLendon’s powerful journey — stepping fully into entrepreneurship, purpose-driven design, and community impact.

This chapter is about building something of your own.

Schumetta opens up about launching Schumetta, Inc., navigating the realities of running a residential design business, and learning how to trust her instincts as both a creative and a leader. She shares what it really takes to turn vision into execution — from client relationships and faith-led decision making to finding confidence in spaces where she once questioned herself.

The conversation then shifts into one of the most defining moments of her career: post-disaster rebuilding. Schumetta reflects on designing and restoring homes after devastating fires, the emotional responsibility that comes with rebuilding lives—not just structures—and how resilience and compassion shape her work at the deepest level.

We also explore her global design influence, how travel and culture inform her aesthetic, and why thoughtful design must always center people first. From mentorship and giving back to her local community, to redefining success on her own terms, Schumetta’s story is a reminder that purpose and creativity can — and should — coexist.

This is a conversation about faith, grit, reinvention, and designing a life that aligns with who you truly are.
