🎙 Episode 173 – Unfiltered & Intentional: The New Era of This Podcast

Hey there — welcome back to the Holistic Interior Design Podcast. It’s been a minute, and I’m so happy to be here with you again. This is episode 173, and it’s the beginning of a brand new chapter. A return to where this podcast first started: to serve you, my design clients, and to offer support for creating intentional, aligned spaces.

At the top of the episode, I light a candle to bring in clarity, presence, and connection — and I pull a card from the Rider Waite deck. The card I pulled came through, which feels so aligned with this moment and confirmation that I'm on the right track.

This episode is really about letting you in on what’s been going on behind the scenes — the shifts in my business, the evolution of the podcast, and why I’m choosing to show up now raw and unedited. Perfectionism has held me back, and I’m ready to let that go. This space is going to be real, honest, and supportive — just like the homes and spaces we’re all working to create.

In this episode, I share:

• Why I’m returning to my original intention for the podcast
• The journey I’ve been on with burnout, reevaluating, and getting back to basics
• A little love note to all my design mentees (you're still welcome here!)
• How this podcast will now speak directly to conscious homeowners, holistic business owners, and anyone creating intentional space
• What to expect from upcoming episodes — design tips, inspiration, Feng Shui insights, astrology lead design, space clearing practices, and aligning your space with your true essence
• How you can submit your design questions or book a design audit to be featured on the show

What’s next?

Starting Tuesday, May 6, I’ll be back releasing new episodes weekly — short, soulful, and packed with inspiration, practical tips, and rituals to help you create a space that truly reflects who you are. We’ll kick things off next week with a revamped version of “What Is Holistic Interior Design?”

Thanks for being here and for allowing me to shift, evolve, and come back to this space with more presence and purpose. I hope it resonates. I can’t wait to hear your questions and support you in designing the spaces of your dreams.

Talk soon,
