Seasonal Planning Workshop this August

Jade Scott Design

In this soulful finale to our summer guest series, Sara is joined by Kaye Preston—Design Editor, Wellbeing Consultant, and Editor of WLLW (Willow)—for a deeply thoughtful conversation on the evolving role of home in our health, identity, and healing.

Kaye shares her winding journey from luxury workplace design to becoming a voice in the healthy home movement, and how moments of personal loss and global disruption led her to reimagine what it truly means to live well—at home. Together, we explore the emotional impact of losing a home, how to begin designing with intention, and why vintage pieces and natural materials hold more than just aesthetic value—they hold energy, longevity, and story.

We also dive into the power of vernacular architecture, the sustainability of slowness, and why your bedroom might just be the most transformative space to begin. Whether you’re ready for a full home reset or simply curious about mindful design, this conversation is filled with gentle insights to help you reconnect to your space—and to yourself.

What does it look like to leave a “dream career”—and discover something even more fulfilling?

In this episode, I’m joined by Robert Bean, co-founder of Impact, a cinematic storytelling studio that creates character-driven films for brands shaping the future of wellness, design, and hospitality—including luxury leaders like the Four Seasons.

We explore:

• Why following your inner guidance can feel like both a leap and a homecoming
• How storytelling builds trust, emotional connection, and authentic branding
• The importance of evolving your business to stay aligned with your purpose
• Robert’s personal journey from airline pilot to soulful brand filmmaker
• How to reframe purpose in a way that grounds you in service, not pressure

Whether you’re a creative entrepreneur or simply navigating your next chapter, this conversation is a powerful reminder: your story is your greatest asset—and the ripple it creates is your true purpose.

We all want a beautiful home—but what if beauty isn’t enough?

In this episode of the Mind Body Home Podcast, I’m joined by Kate Hamblet, wellness architect and founder of Balanced Architecture, to explore what truly makes a home healthy.

We discuss:

Why good design is about more than Pinterest-worthy finishes

The truth about materials, off-gassing, and air quality

What it means to design with all your senses (experiential + biophilic design)

How your kitchen layout affects your eating habits

Kate’s 10 Healthy Home Elements framework

Where to start if you’re building, renovating—or simply curious
