In 2008 Lucy took a leap of faith and started her own Design Blog. Starting from a background of Film TV Production and working in that industry at the time, Lucy took it upon herself to commit to something for herself, that was also something that she was passionate about. Fast forward to 2023 and Lucy's blog, is now Australia's most popular Design website - The Design Files. Whilst calving out her own career, and making a huge success of it, Lucy also admits in interviews, the world of being an online big business is 24/7, and her nature is to never switch off. So what has it been like to navigate growing a blog to a big business, then having her daughter, and trying to find a life balance between the many roles Lucy commits too, and the priorities she chooses for herself.   Rebecca Bull – Creator / Executive Producer / Co-Host Zoe Weir – Co-Creator / Co – Host Sophie Jackson – Producer Social Media – Naughty Nancy Social Media Agency Website / Brand Design – Foster Creative Video Editor – Luke MorganSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
