Before/After Sandy’s Office Transformation

Hello Beautiful!

Did you dress up for Halloween?

I wore this Cowgirl hat (and cowgirl boots) while I wrote today--kinda fun--and about as far I get in the “costume” department :)

I do have an inner cowgirl, though--I rode A LOT as a kid (my friend’s Grandpa had a farm in Virginia and we rode almost every day/all day each summer growing up). I loved it--such awesome memories!

Today I want to share an INCREDIBLE transformation…

Here’s Sandy Eichel…

I worked with Sandy and her wife on their entire home (they are a couple of go-getters!) and last winter she asked if I would advise her on a new high-rise office space. 

First, we took a tour of a few office space choices--if you have a choice, it’s important to have a Feng Shui consultation BEFORE deciding--so many times we are correcting for spaces that are not stable or have weird energy when simply choosing another space could’ve gotten you a better start in the first place.

BEFORE:
This was the space we chose:

Looks promising, doesn’t it? There’s soooooo much potential--AND, to make it even more challenging, this is a corporation with RULES about Not Painting or Wallpapering:) Oh, RLY?

The goal was to create a high vibing workspace that included:

~A desk area for Sandy--She’s a Wealth Management Advisor at Northwestern Mutual and, in addition, an International Speaker and Diversity and Inclusion Consultant.

~A space to meet with clients

~Curated photos and awards for inspiration

~ A space that feels energetically balanced

~A big dose of fun--’cuz, Sandy’s FUN!

AFTER:

The beautiful orange wall is NOT wallpaper (in case anyone from Northwestern Mutual wants to know…) This bold patterned fabric provides a backdrop to the entire office--Sandy (this woman’s got skillzzzzzzz) sewed, stretched and velcroed it right to the wall. Her photos and awards are on display and a fun cardboard wall trophy overlooks the whole scene!

We replaced the industrial office light with this dazzling light with red cords. We also added a round table to have collaborative conversations with clients--hung her Madison art, and added some finishing touches...

And here’s the best part...Sandy is attracting “Dream Clients”!!!
AND, Her Speaking Career (her biggest request) has TAKEN OFF!!!!

She posted this in March:

And then posted about her interview published in Forbes Magazine in May:

And she posted this yesterday--off to Paris next month(!):

I am so excited for her--and honored to have been able to support her rise to fame by working with the energy of her office spaces--both at home and in the high-rise.

If your space (and your life) could use a boost--please contact me--I would love to chat with you! 

Lots of Love,
XOXO
