Hi Friends Wishing a very Merry Christmas to all who celebrate. If the season feels full, noisy, or you’re craving a little quiet space, this episode offers a gentle invitation to pause and reflect. As we stand on the threshold of a brand new year, this is Part One of a two-part series where we gently wrap up 2025. We reflect on the year behind us, the evolution of the podcast, and explore how numerology, the Chinese zodiac, and Western astrology shaped the collective energy we all moved...

Greetings! My goodness, it has been cold where I live in Indiana. I was grateful for the chance to slip away to Florida for a few days- soaking up sunshine and the vibrant colors of blooming flowers. It felt funny to see magenta and fuchsia petals flourishing beneath winter greenery, and big red bows, draped over neighborhood entrances. And yet, as tempting as it is to entirely escape the cold and gray of the northern hemisphere, there is a quiet medicine in this season. Winter carries its...

Hello! I’m writing to you from the warmth of my cozy kitchen on this gray December day. The sky is a fierce winter blue, while everything else is washed in that soft, quiet dormancy that only this season brings. Cub is at my feet, breathing slow and steady after a romp around the yard with his big red ball. The house is still… the perfect backdrop for writing to you. Winter is such a powerful time to recalibrate the inside of your home. With the natural world entering a period of rest, due to...

Hello! What have you been reading lately? As we approach the shortest day of the year, this is one of my favorite times to turn inward, turn off the TV, and pick up a book. Reading isn’t just a hobby... it’s nourishment. Studies show that reading reduces stress by 68%, slows mental decline, supports better sleep, and even helps reduce feelings of loneliness. I definitely read more than the average American (twelve books per year!), especially if we’re counting audiobooks, and lately I’ve been...

Happy Turkey Day! On a day devoted to gratitude, I’ve been reflecting on how gracefully our environments support (or sabotage) our ability to feel thankful. Gratitude flows so much more naturally when our minds feel clear, our bodies feel rested, and our spaces help us exhale. When we’re well-supported by our spaces the essence of the season becomes something we can genuinely experience, not just talk about. That’s why today’s episode feels like perfect timing! I’m answering your questions-...

Hello! You’ve probably heard the expression, “You’re only as strong as your weakest link.” It can sound a little harsh, but I invite you to sit with the idea without judgement for just a moment. In life, and in our homes, putting all of our energy into one area while neglecting the others can create imbalance before we even realize it’s happening. You might give everything to your business, for example, but if your relationships or well-being are neglected, the success might not feel as...

A Warm Hello I hope your week is off to a lovely start. The trees here are showing off their autumn colors- rust, crimson, deep gold. I've been taking an extra walk or two to appreciate the colorful display. It's such a simple pleasure and it always reminds me of how fast the season shifts. As we move toward the darker months, I’ve been thinking about small ways to support our energy through the change. In this week’s episode of Feng Shui Living, I share a few of my favorite tools that help...
