Jade Scott Design

In this soulful finale to our summer guest series, Sara is joined by Kaye Preston—Design Editor, Wellbeing Consultant, and Editor of WLLW (Willow)—for a deeply thoughtful conversation on the evolving role of home in our health, identity, and healing.

Kaye shares her winding journey from luxury workplace design to becoming a voice in the healthy home movement, and how moments of personal loss and global disruption led her to reimagine what it truly means to live well—at home. Together, we explore the emotional impact of losing a home, how to begin designing with intention, and why vintage pieces and natural materials hold more than just aesthetic value—they hold energy, longevity, and story.

We also dive into the power of vernacular architecture, the sustainability of slowness, and why your bedroom might just be the most transformative space to begin. Whether you’re ready for a full home reset or simply curious about mindful design, this conversation is filled with gentle insights to help you reconnect to your space—and to yourself.

What does it look like to leave a “dream career”—and discover something even more fulfilling?

In this episode, I’m joined by Robert Bean, co-founder of Impact, a cinematic storytelling studio that creates character-driven films for brands shaping the future of wellness, design, and hospitality—including luxury leaders like the Four Seasons.

We explore:

• Why following your inner guidance can feel like both a leap and a homecoming
• How storytelling builds trust, emotional connection, and authentic branding
• The importance of evolving your business to stay aligned with your purpose
• Robert’s personal journey from airline pilot to soulful brand filmmaker
• How to reframe purpose in a way that grounds you in service, not pressure

Whether you’re a creative entrepreneur or simply navigating your next chapter, this conversation is a powerful reminder: your story is your greatest asset—and the ripple it creates is your true purpose.

We all want a beautiful home—but what if beauty isn’t enough?

In this episode of the Mind Body Home Podcast, I’m joined by Kate Hamblet, wellness architect and founder of Balanced Architecture, to explore what truly makes a home healthy. From air quality and natural materials to sensory experience and sustainable design, Kate shares how our homes can either support our well-being, or quietly work against it.

We discuss:

Why good design is about more than Pinterest-worthy finishes

The truth about materials, off-gassing, and air quality

What it means to design with all your senses (experiential + biophilic design)

How your kitchen layout affects your eating habits

Kate’s 10 Healthy Home Elements framework

Where to start if you’re building, renovating—or simply curious

Whether you’re planning a remodel or just craving a deeper connection with your space, this episode will expand how you think about your home—and how it’s shaping your body, mind, and life.

What if your physical symptoms were rooted in emotional or spiritual imbalance—not just the body?

To kick off our Summer Guest Series, I’m joined by Dr. Monique G. Rodriguez, L. Ac., licensed acupuncture physician and founder of Five Element Wellness Center. We dive into the powerful world of Five Element Acupuncture—a unique approach within Traditional Chinese Medicine that treats the root cause of imbalance by understanding a person’s core elemental constitution: wood, fire, earth, metal, or water.

Dr. Monique shares:

• How Five Element Acupuncture differs from traditional methods
• Why the emotional body matters just as much as the physical
• The traits of each element (and how to spot your own)
• Her holistic advice for women in their 40s & 50s navigating hormone shifts, identity changes, and the desire for something more
• What happens when your element is out of balance—and how to support it

We also talk about nervous system regulation, emotional release, midlife clarity, and how lifestyle + environment influence your overall well-being.

If you’re craving a deeper, more aligned understanding of health—and yourself—this episode is a must.
