For Jeremiah Brent, one of the biggest lessons he's learned since launching his own design firm is knowing what you don't know. "I'm really strong in certain areas and there are certain things that I just was not good at and so I worked really hard to get people in place that could fill that void for me because I move 1000 miles a minute and I don't want to stop that," Brent said.

Since Brent launched his interior design firm Jeremiah Brent Design in 2012, he's gone on to collaborate with Crate & Barrel, became a published author, and recently joined the cast of Queer Eye.

For the latest episode of The Who What Wear Podcast, Brent shares how he got his start, his budget-friendly design tips, and more.

As I was watching the show, there was a line you said that stuck out to me and it was something along the lines of, "I'm never going to survive this show." I have to ask, how did you survive your first season of Queer Eye?

It was so intense. I did survive it. I've been on television, obviously doing various shows for a while now, and this is one of the most authentic things that I've ever actually participated in.

To actually feel the change that you were a part of for these people was just the wildest thing I've ever gone through. I definitely cried my way through it, but it was, hands down, one of the most beautiful experiences I've ever had.
