The Calm & Happy Home

Welcome back to The Calm & Happy Home Podcast!This week it’s just me, and I’m asking a question that came out of something that happened to me this week: have you left any room for something good to happen?We talk a lot about wanting change, new opportunities, more fun, more freedom. But when we look at our diaries and every hour is spoken for, and we look around our homes and every drawer, surface and wall is full, where exactly is that good thing meant to land? I left my Friday free on purpose, and by Monday evening an invitation to a brilliant event in Sydney had arrived. I can’t prove one led to the other, but I do know that having the space meant I could say yes.If you’re feeling the pressure of the final months of the year, this one is for you. Please don’t buy into the idea that 2026 is over. There’s still half of October, all of November and December, and if we lean into the feng shui calendar, we get January as a bonus too.Why wanting something and having room for it are two very different thingsWhy so many of us feel uncomfortable being available, and how every free half hour can turn into another jobWhat I’ve been reading in The Expectation Effect by David Robson, and how our expectations shape our weekThe study on expecting acceptance, and why walking in thinking “there might be someone here I get along with” changes what you do nextTaking action alongside your intention: letting people know, asking the question and following upTime affluence, and why a free afternoon might be worth more than a new outfitLooking at your home: the desk with no room for a notebook, the chair you can’t actually sit in and the entrance you have to climb over bags to get throughKeeping things from old versions of yourself (hello, beach tennis racket) and giving yourself permission to changeWhy you haven’t failed if you leave space and nothing dramatic happensYour 4 steps for this week: choose one thing you want more room for, protect a small amount of time, get one spot at home ready and choose an expectation that gives you room to moveYou don’t need to transform your whole house or clear your whole diary. Start with half an hour, one chair, one surface, and see what turns up.So much love, Kimberley xxSunshine & Transformation, our high vibrational artwork collaboration with John Lewis: https://www.thefengshuiflow.com/john-lewis-collaboration2026 Year of the Horse Energy Planner: https://www.thefengshuiflow.com/2026-plannerJoin the community at somuchlove.com and follow along @somuchlovekimberleyA bespoke analysis of your home to unlock the exact remedies your living space needs to support you in a life of more abundance and prosperity: https://www.thefengshuiflow.com/home-analysis-serviceWork with me 1 to 1 here!If you loved this episode don't forget to subscribe, leave a 5* review on Apple Podcasts and tag me in your stories on Instagram @thefengshuiflow! xx

Welcome back to The Calm & Happy Home Podcast!This week it's just me, and I'm talking about a message I received from a lovely listener. She's approaching 50, she's been in the same career for years and she knows she doesn't want to do it anymore, but she has no idea what she wants to do instead. I read it and knew straight away that it was today's episode.If you're ready for something different but haven't got a clue what that looks like yet, this one is for you. You don't need the five year plan. We take a tour of the home, compass direction by compass direction, to make space for whatever comes next.Why I don't sit on ideas anymore, and the "show me" intention I've had on repeatThe West: letting go of the evidence of your old identity (old notebooks, work folders, lanyards) and why an empty shelf is a good thingThe North: how to set a career intention when you don't know exactly what you wantThe South: visibility, the story you've told about yourself for years, and why October is your month for confidenceThe Southeast: growth that doesn't have to mean doing more, and what if your next chapter was actually easier?The East: when it's other people's fears that keep you stuckThe Northwest: helpful people, and why you should say yes to the coffee, the conversation and the podcast someone sends youThe Northeast: giving yourself permission to be curious again, without turning it into a businessThe Centre and the front door: looking after yourself, and being open to receive with "I'm available for something good"Why none of your experience is wasted, and how my teaching career led me to my feng shui courseYou don't need the whole plan. Start with your home, make some space, ask to be shown and see how good this next chapter can get.So much love, Kimberley xxSunshine & Transformation, our high vibrational artwork collaboration with John Lewis: https://www.thefengshuiflow.com/john-lewis-collaboration2026 Year of the Horse Energy Planner: https://www.thefengshuiflow.com/2026-plannerJoin the community at somuchlove.com and follow along @somuchlovekimberleyA bespoke analysis of your home to unlock the exact remedies your living space needs to support you in a life of more abundance and prosperity: https://www.thefengshuiflow.com/home-analysis-serviceWork with me 1 to 1 here!If you loved this episode don't forget to subscribe, leave a 5* review on Apple Podcasts and tag me in your stories on Instagram @thefengshuiflow! xx

Welcome back to The Calm & Happy Home Podcast!This week is a bit of a different one, I've handed the reins over to my daughter Immy for a very special interview. She wrote her own list of questions without me seeing them first, so this episode is as much a surprise for me as it is for you, some feng shui, some life, and a few properly embarrassing moments thrown in.If you've ever wondered what I was really like as a teenager, whether I secretly use ChatGPT, or what my daughter thinks of my "podcast voice", grab a cuppa, this one's a fun, honest one.What I was actually like at 14 (a floater, if we're honest, until one English essay changed everything)Why my "podcast voice" really is different from how I talk at home, and the reason behind itHaving lots of different friendship groups rather than one best friend, and why that's served me so wellThe great debate over what to name our next dogHow I really feel about AI and ChatGPT, where it helps me hugely in business and where I'll never let it near my feng shuiWhether I'd move to Sydney if Immy studies there one dayMy (very limited) artistic skills, that art GCSE, and the painting Ed still doesn't know the whereabouts ofWhy you don't have to be brilliant at everything, some things just aren't your strength, and that's okayNever picturing myself where I am now, and how I ended up here anyway by trusting things would work outWhat Immy wants to do when she's older, and the passion she's found that combines two things she lovesYou don't need to have it all figured out to end up exactly where you're meant to be.So much love, Kimberley and Immy xxSunshine & Transformation, our high vibrational artwork collaboration with John Lewis: https://www.thefengshuiflow.com/john-lewis-collaboration2026 Year of the Horse Energy Planner: https://www.thefengshuiflow.com/2026-plannerJoin the community at somuchlove.com and follow along @somuchlovekimberleyA bespoke analysis of your home to unlock the exact remedies your living space needs to support you in a life of more abundance and prosperity: https://www.thefengshuiflow.com/home-analysis-serviceWork with me 1 to 1 here!If you loved this episode don't forget to subscribe, leave a 5* review on Apple Podcasts and tag me in your stories on Instagram @thefengshuiflow! xx

Welcome back to The Calm & Happy Home Podcast!This week it's a proper catch up, no secrets left to keep now that the John Lewis artwork is finally out in the world, and I'm sharing everything that's been going on behind the scenes, the wobbles, the wins and how my home has been quietly holding it all together.If you've ever wondered whether investing before you have the money, taking a risk that doesn't pay off, or feeling like your business is a big old machine some days is just you, this episode is your reminder that none of it has to be perfect to be working.Why "everything is a prototype" has become my go to mindset for launching without waiting for perfectThe years long journey to seeing my artwork in John Lewis, and the lesson in every no that came before the yesHow my incredible team have allowed me to step back and trustThe truth about investing before you have the money, and why that leap never really stops feeling scaryWhy I've been working the south area of my home, fame, recognition and visibility, and how I built myself a little wall of fameA gentle reminder that if something isn't working out, it might just not be meant for you right nowThe spa day that turned into hot chips and a cocktail, and why I count that as one of my biggest winsSaying yes to more (but not everything), and staying open to the people who might be about to change everythingWatching my words around money with my daughter, and choosing "find a way" over "money doesn't grow on trees"Why October's energy is all about stability, and how September's alignment has been setting us up for itYou don't need everything to be sorted to keep moving forward. You just need to keep listening to what your home, and your gut, is telling you.So much love, Kimberley xxSunshine & Transformation, our high vibrational artwork collaboration with John Lewis: https://www.thefengshuiflow.com/john-lewis-collaboration2026 Year of the Horse Energy Planner: https://www.thefengshuiflow.com/2026-plannerJoin the community at somuchlove.com and follow along @somuchlovekimberleyA bespoke analysis of your home to unlock the exact remedies your living space needs to support you in a life of more abundance and prosperity: https://www.thefengshuiflow.com/home-analysis-serviceWork with me 1 to 1 here!If you loved this episode don't forget to subscribe, leave a 5* review on Apple Podcasts and tag me in your stories on Instagram @thefengshuiflow! xx
