Summary

You may remember Anjie from her several other appearances here over the years, most recently, the in-person feng shui consulting session she did for me in my apartment. This time, in her fifth appearance on this podcast, we give some updates from making the adjustments she suggested on our last episode, plus we talk about her new book, some factors she can pinpoint that impacted her career success, and I took some questions from others including space and home adjustments for relationships, and how to adjust and compromise when merging styles when moving in with a new partner. And the question she gets most often from couples: what to do when one person values consistency and familiarity and the other loves novelty and moving around furniture. Since 1999, Anjie has been designing spaces informed by the ancient practice of feng shui and tailored to each individual’s needs, which you’ll get a taste of in this. She’s been featured everywhere from The New York Times to Domino Magazine; she’s a New York State registered architect; co-founder of the Mindful Design Feng Shui School; and author of the book Holistic Spaces and the newly published Mindful Homes.

0:39.3	and
0:40.3	time
0:41.3	I
0:42.3	don't know
0:43.3	I'm on, but it's a bunch. And it's my dear friend Angie. She is a architect, interior designer. And she's come to every space I've ever lived in and helped me figure out how to set it up, how to use the ancient practice of feng shui to tailor my space to not only my individual needs, but also to improve different areas of my life, using something called the bagua map, which we go over in this episode.
1:26.6	And you can hear her live in
1:29.5	person at my apartment telling me exactly what to do and learning about what's going on with me
1:36.1	in a very long episode that we aired earlier this year. So this is a little bit of a follow-up from that.
1:42.5	We kind of go over how some of those adjustments
1:45.6	and moving my furniture played out and what that has been like for me in the month since. So
1:52.6	if you listen to that episode, you'll find this to be a compliment to that. And if you didn't,

2:06.6	friends of mine and friends of ours and goes over everything from how to adjust and compromise
2:13.4	when you're merging styles with a partner, as well as what to do when you're wanting a partner and how to set up your home and space more aptly to promote that and invite someone and more more people or friendship or community or whatever it is that you're wanting and one of the questions that I asked her that came from a friend of mine is apparently the question that she gets asked most often, which is some version of, what do I do when I move in with a partner and, you know, the contrast between familiarity and consistency to novelty and wanting frequent change.
2:51.5	And she goes into what to do in that situation, as well as so much more.
