Three hours later, after a powerful healing season with one of my coaches, it became the inspiration for the final episode of Season 4 of the In Her Eyes Podcast.

We have all heard "Home is where the heart is" but I love the definition that my guest, Author and Interior Designer-Carrie Leskowitz, gives of HOME on this week's podcast:
"Home is the combination of ourselves and our living space."
This conversation is an honest and insightful look at the transformative power of an energetically aligned home from 2 designers who have seen miracles happen, within our own lives and the lives of our clients.
Carrie shares with us how the insights and actions detailed in her book, OM for the Home, which was born from a personal medical crisis can be applied to your home to create an environment that supports sustainable joy.
She shares how she applies the skills she learned as a life coach to help clients and readers create more awareness around harmful thought patterns.
"How you do one thing, is how you do everything. It is all connected."
Finding the messages your home is giving you can guide you to deep insights + revelations that help you expand and grow into the life you desire.

Colors play a vital role in our children's growth and development.
Since colors are energetic wavelengths with different frequencies, they influence our bodies. Like all other energies, children are even more sensitive to them than we are. Using what we know about color to support our children's individual personalities and biological makeup is important.
When we design their space in a way that takes into consideration we can improve their overall health, physical, mental, and emotional. We can also bring more joy and stability to their daily lives.
This is a subject I am passionate about and could talk for days.
I tried to stick to the basics of how to get started.

Have you ever had to focus on the horizon to keep from getting seasick?
It works.
Take it from someone who has a super-sensitive stomach.
Our eyes naturally move to find the next similar thing. It's how we move through the world without constantly falling down.
Contrast provides drama but similarity creates a sense of safety, consciously and subconsciously.
With some practice with this technique, you will elevate how you feel constantly welcomed into each space as you move through your home.
In this episode of the In Her Eyes podcast, Interior Designer and color specialist, Lynne Niehaus shares how you can use a simple design strategy that makes adjoining spaces feel cohesive to create harmony in your home.
You will learn:
Your nervous system is both the director and producer in your experience of the story of your life. Creating a home that harmoniously supports its function will give you more peace and joy throughout your days and nights.

Do you remember the time when you were passionate about a color?
I love how toddlers proudly and confidently announce their favorite colors.
There is no denying that the color they love is one that they feel; all the way to their bones!
Color has a vibrational effect on all of us, even when we have stopped communicating our passion for it.
In this episode, I share with you the ways that you can use the colors that directly affect your mood during this time of decreased sunlight.
I teach you which colors work best and why.
How to identify the right color/s for you.
I share with you the ways to incorporate them in your decor and other areas of your life, as well as the visionary process for using them to alter your vibration and create an environment ripe for healing and relief to take place.
What does it mean to be trendy?
When clients announce to me that they are “not trendy” upon first consultation, I know that it means one or a combination of these 3 things:
“I have definitive opinions about what I do and don’t like.”
“I want the selections in my space to have staying power, i.e. I don’t want my space to feel dated in a couple of years.”
“I want to feel seen in my space.”
Many times they have invested in products or services that haven’t aged well.
Or conversely, they have made choices they loved in the past. And now what they see in the retail market isn’t their vibe, yet they feel the need to update.
I often get asked about the Colors promoted as “color of the year” by the different companies.
Specifically, I get asked what I think.
I have come to recognize that it is a loaded question.
In this episode, I tell you EXACTLY what I think. The muzzle’s off!
I have some pretty strong opinions:
They get cerebral: bringing in Rudolf Steiner’s writings on color energetics. His analysis of color he refers to as Peach Blossom in his 1921 lectures on color is relevant in this discussion of Pantone’s selection of Peach Fuzz for 2024 over 100 years later! The energetics of a color matter.
They get subjective: I was sailing the deep, history-laden parts of the Mediterranean when Benjamin Moore’s Blue Nova and it’s corresponding color palette was unveiled.
They get biased: a girl’s gotta have favorites!
I explain the difference between a “trend”- which is a forecast with underlying significance. And a “selection”- which is a marketing tactic designed to speak to a particular demographic.
We do live in a consumer-driven society, after all.
Your home should reflect your individuality, inspire you, and propel you forward.
You can understand yourself by understanding how you gravitate toward (or run from!) a color palette and unlock what’s right for YOU!
Every great feat, invention, or accomplishment began with someone believing in the possibility of its existence.
When you allow yourself to believe in the possibility of what you want in your life,
whether its more money
more joy
healthier body
more clarity
a bigger home;
the path to whatever that desire is begins to form.
What would your life look like if you leaned into the possibility of all of your dreams coming true?
The book that I referenced in this week's episode is The Power of the Subconscious Mind by Dr. Joseph Murphy.

Whatever you want to change or affect in 2024 starts with identifying the stories you tell.
What are you continuing to tell yourself that keeps you stuck; repeating the same patterns?
On a recent trip "home", the area where I grew up, I came face-to-face with a story I hadn't recognized. It is easier to blame others than to accept your responsibility for the situation you are in.
That doesn't make the actions of others okay.
But it does change how you get to experience your life.
This episode will help you move into 2024 with the clarity you need to get the results you desire.

Do you blame or shame yourself when your New Year's resolutions fall flat?
Every gym owner knows that most people have abandoned their resolutions by the end of February.
I have found that creating a Word of the Year to guide me through the year and serve as a fundamental principle that I can take action from to be far more valuable than setting a New Year's resolution.
It allows me to:
2023 was a year of introspection, going inward, on a global, energetic scale.
When I chose my word of the year last winter, I didn't know that.
As a result, I was able to see blockages to my alignment that I didn't know existed.
Was it easy?
NO.
Was it necessary for who I desire to be + what I want to create?
100%!
In this episode, I walk you through the questions to ask yourself in reflection as well as the process for selecting a WORD OF THE YEAR for 2024 that helps you align with your dreams.

Did you know that the molecules that your body creates when you are happy or excited are lighter + softer than the ones created when you are feeling sad or angry?
In the alternative health and energetic healing world, you learn the path to feeling better is to release the heavy, dense emotions that you have stored in your body because you didn't fully experience it.
We are taught from a young age to suppress our emotions; particularly the negative ones.
So learning to feel our emotions can feel like an overwhelming task.
What if the path to learning to move through negative emotions can be found in spending more time, CONSIDERABLY MORE TIME, in our positive emotions?
When we luxuriate in positive emotions, we raise our vibration. We increase our energy level. We feel lighter (because we are!) and more capable. We can move through more challenging circumstances with less resistance.
Give yourself the gift of joy by relishing the positive.
I have to admit that when I first heard of numerology, I was skeptical. It felt like one more modality assigning meaning to something arbitrary.
Yet I know exactly where I am in this present moment thanks to numbers.
-The time
-The year
-The month
-The day, including the date
-My location, longitude + latitude
My guest interview this week demystifies the field of numerology and explains it from a practical, mom's point of view.
Cassandra Ares, the owner of CassandraFreya, is a tattooed corporate Queen by day, and a badass spirit intuitive by night. She is the Mama to a Fire Fairy and serves by installing the frequency of Faith into one freedom seeker at a time.
Just like her 17-month-old daughter, this conversation is FIRE!
She shares how she uses the insight gained from her daughter's numerology chart to align with her toddler's needs.
She walks us through the different energy bodies and explains our hidden challenges and strengths.
She explains how we can tap into the information held within our own birthdate, our numerology, to align our lives.
The 5 points:
reveal a lifetime (or more!) of information.
Not only does this episode help you unlock powerful information that is at your fingertips, it also illustrates the strength of the bonds built within communities of a like-minded sisterhood.
I share the significant role that Cass's daughter, Freya, has played in my own creative evolution.
It is a magical, mystical journey that will leave you thinking deep thoughts for sure!

Have you ever considered how many times you didn't say “yes” to what you truly wanted?
Saying yes is more than not saying no.
The past few weeks my husband and I shared an incredible vacation visiting the Greek Isles and parts of Italy.
I returned with electric energy within me, feeling whole and connected, while also dealing with ongoing turmoil in my business.
Deciding what to complete first, what actions to take with this energy, gave me the opportunity to discover what I was going to SAY YES to.
I had this opportunity during the time that I was reflecting on this on the time that I was reflecting on my trip to recognize all the time that I didn't say yes to what I really wanted.
You will learn:
How to tap into your inner discernment.
The art of making your 'yes' a sacred commitment to your truth.
How the principles of Human Design align your actions with your unique energy.
Reflection on missed opportunities and the importance of aligning your choices with your desires.
How to create a life that truly honors your desires, emotions, and authentic self.
When you are only saying yes to the things that set you on fire, you are moving into alignment with the life that you desire to be living.

Have you ever wondered if the color of your walls and the arrangement of your furniture could be the keys to unlocking your full potential?
In this episode, we're going to be talking about intentionally designing our spaces. Using our physical spaces and how we think about the design of them to support our habits.
There's some things in the standard idea of design, decorating, and interior decorating, that go against our natural ability to incorporate a new habit or to change a current habit.
Oftentimes we feel like we don't have enough space to do the things that we want to do and it's those excuses about the limitations that our homes have that we let creep in when we're trying to build a new set of healthy habits.
Today, I want to just really tell you some of the decorating and design do's and don'ts that can really help you support yourself in these healthy habits.
Systems and solutions that make your life easier.
How to think about things in new ways.
You will learn:

How intentional space design can positively impact your habits and lifestyle.
Recognizing design principles that align with or hinder habit formation.

Decor and design do's and don'ts to aid in healthy habit development.
Strategies for creating systems and solutions that simplify your life.
Shifting your perspective to find solutions within your existing space.
The magic of taking action on your vision before making purchases.
You can’t just go out and shop for your vision, your vision has to be inscribed on your heart in order for it to support you at a higher level.
That, my friend, is where the magic lies. You can do anything, you can bring anything into your life. Any habit, any lifestyle change, as long as you set the vision, commit to it, and begin to take action.

Sarah shares with us how, traditionally, we are born with a feeling of needing to serve a purpose, without even consciously knowing it.

Bridging the realms of shamanism, energy healing, and everyday life can hold the key to the transformation that your heart has been craving.
My friend, please remember that we are worthy of pure, whole health. Our illnesses and our struggles and our obstacles do not define us, but that beautiful light from which we emanate from is our worthiness, where we find strength and self-love and over encompassing love.
