About the host: Cheryl Kees Clendenon- 2021 KBB Person of the year 2022 Design Studio winner Dallas Arts Awards 2021 Changemaker Design Hounds 200 or so years ago a child came roaring into the world feet first ready to show up and argue a cause. Just because. Her mother still maintains the story is- she was screaming-“why”- from the minute she landed wrong side up and slapped the doctor for disturbing her afternoon nap And to this day does not give “it” a rest except when she is sleeping. Which is where you will find her only between the hours of 2am and 7:30am. A belligerent non-smoker (in case you were wondering) and a frequent challenger of anything that resembles “normal” or desired by the masses, Cheryl is a natural born contrarian who talks faster than 2x speed on a podcast She gravitates towards wanting to help clients and designers who are the square pegs in a world of round holes, lose earrings impossibly frequently, fall off of platform shoes and are unapologetically saucy. Relaxing is not in the skill set. Life begins and ends with family. Her sacred words are: Why, Percipient, Whizbang and Profit. But please do not say the words: Package, Blocks, Red Flag, Overwhelm or Picked. Hives break out and it gets ugly.

Season 4 Ep 81: The problem with being the one who knows everything
Published 29 Sept 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] The more competent the owner is, the easier it is for the business to become dependent on her or him. You're fast. You know the clients. You know the vendors. You understand the money. Boom, boom, boom. You can sell. You can design. You can usually tell when something is about to go sideways before anyone else sees it. You got the sixth sense. Right. So naturally, people hand things to you. They hand things to you. OK. And because you can solve them, you do. You do. And there might even be some ego involved there. There might be some ego involved there. And this might feel like leadership to you. […]
