Episode 55 | Creativity in your Home
Tuesday Jan 05, 2021
Tuesday Jan 05, 2021
Walking through some condos recently with a buyer got me thinking about creativity and all the ways in which you can explore the creative side of yourself at home. Some think you have to be an artist to be creative, when in fact, that isn’t true at all. Music and cooking, candle making, and gardening - all are ways to explore creativity at home. This episode explores what it means to be creative within the walls of your home as well as using creative decision making to morph your home into a true expression of those living there.

Episode 51 | Creating wonderful Traditions
Tuesday Nov 17, 2020
Tuesday Nov 17, 2020
Change is constant and it tends to manifest nervous anticipation of what is to come. One of the best ways of coping is to focus on what is stable. This is where traditions come in. They bring meaning to our lives and give us a sense of belonging. This episode is about creating wonderful traditions NOT associated with gathering in groups. Share photos of your traditions with me by using the #HomeSpaceAndReason hashtag or tagging me @SpaceAndReason.
