Luxury isn’t just for vacations—it can be built right in your backyard. In this episode, Rodney breaks down how to design an outdoor space that feels like a resort, no matter the size of your yard. Listeners will learn how to use shade, water, fire, and creative layouts to create relaxing “rooms” outdoors, plus how to combine high-traffic entertainment zones with quiet spaces for unwinding. Whether you have a small patio or sprawling property, this episode is full of ideas to turn your yard into a personal oasis.
