Carrie's Story
You have to live it to give it.
This is a phrase used often in the life coach program. Having experienced my own personal and business transformations, pivots and reinventions over the years, practicing interior design and becoming a certified life coach gives me a unique perspective on how to help you transform: your life, your thoughts, your home. Everything is energy! Our home holds energy just as our thoughts hold energy. It is not enough to have a beautiful space anymore, we must be mindful of the energy we bring into that space.
After having my children, I left behind a career in fashion to join a growing interior design business. I brought to it the same passion and focus that I put into my days as a fashion show coordinator, producer and stylist for print and video work. I felt so fortunate to be able to help others create a home that reflects their unique aesthetic and as a coach, if I could be of service to bring clarity to a situation that someone is struggling with, all the better!
Through my studies in psychology in college, coupled with my own experience of feeling stuck or powerless over things beyond my control, I realized I needed tools to “retrain my brain” and maybe others did as well. Becoming a certified life coach resonated and intrigued me. As an interior designer, Feng Shui consultant, and now mixed media artist, I understand the deep connection our home, and what we pace within it, has on our overall wellbeing.
Building a new framework, opening the curtain on a new path to possibility and inner peace starts on the inside and reflects outward. I created Design from Within not just as an interior design but as an “interior” redesign business. I decided to pause the business as I became passionate about creating art. I now am a full time artist creating works inspired by nature and reflect a wabi'-sabi, (beauty in the perfectly imperfection) nature that is reflected all around us. I may take on art consulting and accessorizing projects if it aligns with my purpose. I never want to stop creating beauty. Beauty stirs the soul.
I tell it like it is. I am candid and authentic. I love being sociable. I love being solitary. I pride myself on being a good listener and a good communicator. I make conscious choices based on the mind-body connection and can help you do the same. I am curious and adventurous by nature. I try to make every experience the best it can be. I am passionate about exploring new ways to help empower others in creating an environment that fosters balance, harmony and wellbeing. To create a hOMe that perfectly expresses a client’s authenticity is crucial to our wellbeing and helps create sustainable joy.
