Chelsea Fuss was obsessed with flowers when she was growing up. When other kids were at the mall or playing sports, she had grown her own cottage garden at the age of 14. She studied art history at college but would draw flowers in the margins of her class notes. She decided to make flowers her career — going from internships to renowned floral designer and influencer.

In this episode, Chelsea and I talk openly about when she realized in college she could live off a career in flower, why gardening is so much more respected as a career in the UK than America, how she used social media to launch and develop her brand, what it was like to design floral arrangements for magazine photo shoots, and why she gave that all up to move to Portugal.
