The Interior Design Process That Feels Like a Soul-Deep Reset (Before You Even Buy a Couch)
You walk into your home, expecting it to feel good, right? Like a deep exhale after a long day.
But instead, there’s this… ache.
Like something’s missing, but you can’t put your finger on it.
So you do what everyone else does: Scroll Pinterest. Buy new home decor. Maybe rearrange the furniture.
And yet, the discomfort lingers—because the problem was never the decor.
What you need isn’t another design hack.
You need a shift.
Because Here’s the Real Reason Your Home Still Feels “Off”
Your mind isn’t ready to design yet.
Most people start with stuff—picking furniture, choosing colors, copying trends.
Then they wonder why their home still doesn’t feel like them.
But we start somewhere else.
We start with you.
Our process isn’t about “making things pretty.” It’s about rewiring how you think about your space so that by the time we get to the design, every choice clicks. Every detail feels like home. Every inch of your space supports you.
This isn’t a formula.
It’s a guided, deep-dive transformation—where you let go of the noise, trust yourself, and finally create a home that feels like your favorite, lived-in hoodie.
How We Keep You Supported (So You Never Get Stuck in the Mess)
Transformation is messy. Change stirs up doubt. But you’re not in this alone. Here’s how we keep the momentum going so you stay clear, confident, and supported at every step.
✔ 1:1 Deep Dive (End-of-Phase Check-Ins) :
After each phase, we sit down for a big-picture clarity session. We untangle what’s shifted, what’s sticking, and what needs refining before moving forward.
✔ Guided Reflection Workbook:
Exercises that help you spot the sneaky patterns keeping you stuck.
✔ Notion HQ:
A space to track your insights, decisions, and lightbulb moments.
✔ Voxer Access:
Got a middle-of-the-night “Should I really get rid of this?” moment? I’m here. (Of course, I might look like Wonder Woman, but even she needs sleep. I’ll get back to you on weekdays, 8 am–6 pm—like a normal(ish) human.)
The M.I.N.D. Method™: Four Phases That Change Everything (Yes, before we even buy furniture.)
Phase 1: Mindset Detox
Clearing the Noise So You Can Hear Yourself Again
Right now, your home is full of things that don’t quite fit.
Not just furniture—expectations, old stories, and “shoulds” that don’t belong to you.
The couch you bought because it was “nice” for guests—but you secretly hate it.
The decor you copied from someone else’s “perfect home,” even though it doesn’t feel like you.
The guilt about getting rid of things, even when they drain you.
So before we design, we clear.
✔ Why You Don’t Trust Your Choices – We break down the root of your doubt so you can finally make decisions with confidence.
✔ Detoxing External Noise – No more Pinterest perfection. No more comparison traps. We’re designing for you, not an algorithm.
✔ Reframing Design as Self-Trust – Your home isn’t a showroom. It’s a reflection of you. We make sure it actually feels like it.
Why this matters: If you don’t clear out the mental clutter first, you’ll just keep recreating the same stuck feeling—even with new stuff.
PHASE 2: Intentional Space
Making Room for Your Real Life (Not Just a Pretty One)
This is where most designers ask, “What’s your style?”
I ask, “What does your life actually need?”
Your home isn’t a showroom. It’s where you spill coffee, take deep exhales, and live.
So we figure out what needs to stay, what needs to go, and how your space can hold you better.
✔ Emotional Mapping – We uncover what actually makes you feel safe, inspired, and at ease.
✔ The ‘Non-Negotiable’ List – What actually matters to you (so you stop buying things you regret).
✔ Space & Energy Flow – Because sometimes, the problem isn’t what you own—it’s how it’s arranged.
Why this matters: If your space doesn’t fit your life, you’ll always feel like a visitor in your own home.
PHASE 3: Needs Reset
Letting Go Without Apology
This is the hardest part. Because it’s not just about stuff—it’s about who you’re becoming.
That expensive rug you hate but feel guilty ditching?
The decor that reminds you of someone you used to be?
The hesitation to buy things that actually fit you now?
✔ Form vs. Function – The key to spaces that work for you, not just look good in photos.
✔ Eliminating ‘Just in Case’ Syndrome – Let go of clutter disguised as “what if” items.
✔ Investment vs. Filler – Spend smarter, not more. We create a framework for making choices that last.
We walk through it together—what stays, what goes, and how to design without guilt.
Why this matters: If you’re holding onto a past version of yourself, your home will always feel like someone else’s—not yours.
PHASE 4: Decide Without Doubt
The Part Where Everything Clicks
Now that you’ve cleared the noise, made room for your real life, and let go of what doesn’t serve you, this is where we bring it all together.
And the best part?
You already know what feels right.
Because this process wasn’t about me telling you what to do.
It was about teaching you how to trust yourself again.
So now, the design process moves fast. Effortless. Clear.
✔ Decision-Making Frameworks – Because decisiveness is a muscle—you’ll build it.
✔ Regret-Proofing – No buyer’s remorse. No second-guessing. Just certainty.
✔ Your Home, Your Rules – Forget the “right way.” We’re building your way.
Why this matters: The right choices don’t come from trends. They come from a clear, grounded, confident you.
This Isn’t Just Design. It’s a Shift.
If you’ve ever thought:
“I’ll get to it when I have time.”
“I just need the right inspiration.”
“I don’t trust myself to make the right choices.”
…this is what changes that.
This isn’t about adding more stuff to your home.
It’s about finally feeling at home in your own life.
And it starts here.
What You’re Probably Wondering (Because I’ve Been There Too)
“Why trust you when I’ve got Pinterest and a glue gun?”
Fair.
You’ve spent years DIY-ing, scrolling, second-guessing every lamp and rug.
Maybe you’re thinking, “I’ll figure it out—I always have.”
But let’s be real: that cycle’s a soul-crusher, and it’s not your fault. The design world’s rigged to keep you doubting—handing you trends and pretty rooms that don’t fit your life.
I’m not that designer.
I’m not here to put together a showroom.
I’m here to hand you back your instincts.
No more “safe” buys you hate in six months.
No more texting your bestie for a thumbs-up.
Just a home that’s a hell yes—messy Mondays and all.
You’ve burned enough time on maybe.
Let’s make it real together.
Why This Feels Right (And Works)
I’m not here to sell you trends or Instagram-worthy perfection. I’m here to talk about your life—your mess, your mismatched furniture, your space that should finally feel like yours.
That flea market chair you love? It stays.
That coffee table covered in memories (and maybe a few wine stains)? We make it work.
That gut feeling that something’s off? We fix that—not with more stuff, but with intention.
People I work with—92% of them—hit this moment where it all clicks. Where they see why their space felt wrong, why they kept rearranging but never feeling at home. The rest? They’re just a few pillows away from getting there.
And let’s talk numbers—because I know the math hurts. The average person burns through $14,700 on stuff that never even felt right. Not to mention the hours lost staring at a blank wall, hoping it’ll magically make sense.
Your home shouldn’t feel like a stranger. It should feel like you.
Your Burning Questions (The Ones That Come Up Over Coffee)
“What if I pick something and it’s wrong?”
There’s no “wrong”—just not quite you yet. We refine, adjust, and keep going until it feels right.
“My partner and I don’t agree on anything.”
Been there. Heard that. I have a knack for finding that middle ground between ‘it’s got to work’ and ‘it’s got to feel right’—where both of you walk away happy.
“I don’t know anything about design…”
Perfect. Someone I worked with thought “modern” meant “metal and cold.” Their home? Cozy, warm, theirs. No design degree required.
“Isn’t this too expensive?”
Think of it this way: $15k in impulse buys you regret vs. $3,500 to finally feel at home.
Your peace? It knows the real value.
“I don’t have time for this.”
You don’t need it. We do this in bite-sized, 20-minute pieces—it fits your life, not the other way around.
Staying Stuck Costs More Than You Think
Here’s the truth:
You’ve spent 11 hours this month staring at that wall, waiting for inspiration to strike.
That “I’ll get to it later” project? Three years of dust says otherwise.
Your time, your money, your peace—they’re leaking away.
Let’s stop that.
Let’s Get Started (No Pressure, Just Real Talk)
If you’re tired of walking into your space and feeling off—if you’re done treating your home like a puzzle you can’t solve—let’s talk.
No big commitments, no pressure. Just clarity on what will actually make your space feel like yours.
