Today's guests are Erin Banta and Kelsey Brown, founders of Pepper Home! The two thought of the concept for the popular brand while students at Colombia Business School.

The founders started out as two friends wishing they could make their cramped West Village rentals feel more like home. That’s why they founded Pepper—because they believe in owning your home, whether or not your name is on the deed. With their collection of custom pillows, curtains, table linens, wallpaper, and more, customers get to create original pieces no one else has but everyone will want.

Since Pepper is about bringing design to everyone, they're not charging an arm and a leg. Through reasonable prices, we can all enjoy!

In today's episode, you'll hear about the early days of Pepper and how the ladies decided to scale their business, how they handled the pandemic, and the greatest lessons they'd ever learned!
