A Winning Team

  SUCCESS can found in so many areas! Set yourself up for SUCCESS every day, and reap the rewards!    I had an opportunity to hire a team using the Feng Shui Energy Elements again this past spring.  My client wanted to test a new venue to see if their footwear could sell in a casual, nonthreatening environment. I had restrictions with signage and advertising as we were part of a larger group. Therefore, I had to change my plan:…

A Family, Void of Clutter

    The dilemma:   How many hobbies can we start up at once? How many ‘collectibles’ can we display?How to find the balance of how much ‘stuff’ one can handle at one time? And, how much room we need to store memorabilia? Where is the line?  When we de-clutter to the extreme, we deprive ourselves of the memories, incentives and items that feed our soul. Hmmm… I consulted in a home recently that was void of any clutter, whatsoever! There…

  Did I read this right? Can you learn to manage chaos? Yes, if you can maintain a handle on your priorities!

As the Crow Caws…

Why do people get so upset when the crows come around? People often declare, ‘Darn crows; they make too much noise!’ Crow do have a remarkable voice range and can caw in many different tones. We don’t really know what they are cawing about, but we are all curious about mystical references to these birds. It is intriguing that crows and ravens are often mentioned in folklore and mythology for their power and compassion. Here are a few mentions: (notes…

Ask Kathryn: About Home Break-ins.

Ask Kathryn: About Home Break-ins. Q: Our house was broken into over Xmas. The culprits came in through the dinette window in the kitchen and took our laptops and tablets.

Busted in Malaysia!

Busted in Malaysia! Yep, I tripped my very first day in Malaysia! I caught my sandal in the crack between the stairs and the wheelchair/suitcase ramp. So, thankfully, Malaysia has a state-of-the-art International Hospital and I was given a complete tour of ER, X-ray, orthopedic and then physical therapy to pick out a pair of crutches. I cracked a small bone in my right foot and badly sprained my ankle. Busted! After only a day’s rest I was anxious to…

The Feng Shui Blue Mansion

The Feng Shui Blue Mansion I found a tour of an interesting property in Georgetown Malaysia, while on holiday. This amazing mansion built in the 1860’s for the Cheong Fatt Tze Legacy, had been sold in a dilapidated state in 1990, when the youngest son passed away. Winner of the ‘Most Excellent Project’ Award at the UNESCO Heritage Awards in 2000, the mansion has been returned to its perfect feng shui state in its original form. Every room is perfectly…

The $100.00 Challenge!

The $100. Challenge! In my workshop this past week we talked of the tales of years passed, and how money, and our relationship with money has changed tremendously.

It is so easy these days to just keep pouring money into parking meters, shopping at the expensive shops and overlooking…
