with Franceska McCaughan
You’ve spent years hustling from one wedding to the next, wondering if there’s a better way—there is. This podcast is for florists who are ready to stop depending on events and start reaching recurring revenue through luxury hotel partnerships. I’m sharing exactly what it takes to work with high-end hotels, create floral experiences that guests will never forget, and finally have the freedom and world stage you’ve been craving. If you’ve ever thought, "I’m over this grind—what’s next?" this is the place for you. Pull up a chair, let’s change your floral career forever.
With over a decade of international experience, I’ve partnered with iconic brands like JW Marriott, Four Seasons, Chanel, Tiffany & Co., and one of the royal families of the UAE—just to name a few. My bespoke floral designs have transformed luxury spaces across the globe, creating unforgettable guest experiences and setting new standards in hospitality floral design.
I didn’t just enter the floral industry—I redefined it by carving out the niche of Hospitality Floral Design, a space that blends creativity with strategy to deliver high-impact, long-term floral solutions. From building a multi-six-figure business with studios in Dubai, Houston, and Dallas, to empowering florists to lead in this lucrative field, my mission is simple: to elevate florists into sought-after specialists and to help hotels create floral partnerships that enhance their brand’s prestige.
