But, what’s it actually like working as a feng shui consultant? The day to day is pretty much like any other business. Working as a feng shui consultant means being an understanding, non-judgmental, and patient person. In the course of my consultation career, I’ve been asked about how to handle difficult love relationships, a major illness like cancer to mystery illnesses, infidelity, career problems, and money issues. You have to be ready for anything... and want to help.
