#2: Design TV Secrets Alongside HGTV’s Sabrina Soto
Well, you’ve found ’em: the show notes for Episode #2 of Turbodizin Has A Podcast. On this week’s episode, designer and TV host Sabrina Soto opens up about what she loves, hates, and has cried over in her 9 years of making design television. Plus, we hear how motherhood has changed her style and what it is truly like behind the scenes of the Home Shopping Network. We will also share what is new with us, play another rousing round of “What is Not”, and shout out a surprisingly resilient plant that we use both inside and out.
You can find this week’s show on iTunes, Google Play, Stitcher and TuneIn Radio – or play it below! Then use this page to check out any links, notes, or photos that we referenced.
