  • I do love that about so many of the people in our industry, we just keep going. We got handed a curveball. Now let\'s pivot and let\'s figure something else out. Ceil\\xa0DiGuglielmo\\xa0(3:55)\\xa0

  • I think having the perseverance, the resilience, the tenacity, to hold on and to work through it. It is about making sure that that we are owning everything and that we\'re being intentional so that you don\'t get blindsided. Michele (5:04)\\xa0

  • I think that when we move back to more US based manufacturing, and we are really looking at the quality of what these craftspeople are creating, and the price that we\'re paying for it, I think it could shift us back to quality pieces that have longevity in the home versus such a throwaway mentality. Michele (13:31)\\xa0

  • I think there are so many wonderful things that came out of the pandemic that taught us how to be resilient and how to pivot. Ceil\\xa0DiGuglielmo\\xa0(19:25)\\xa0
