Episode 6: Dayna Isom Johnson

Since she was a little girl, Dayna Isom Johnson says she always knew she wanted to “do something big.” As one of the first fashion publicists I ever met in New York, Johnson is the epitome of effervescent joy and hard work. As a trend expert with over a decade of experience, she finds her passion in helping people around the world unveil their personal style through artfully curated pieces. Today, Johnson is an Etsy trend expert and judge on NBC’s hit prime time craft competition show ‘Making It.’ Johnson sat down with me in this episode to discuss her path as a small town girl chasing big city dreams, keeping your inner child alive, and how to make passion the focal point of your work.
