Meghan Wallace James is an (intuitive) Feng Shui consultant, a momma to two beautiful boys, and a dear friend who has taught me so much about slowing down and appreciating the beauty that exists in every moment, in every place. She has also helped me clear out and activate my home, infusing principles of feng shui and intuition in order to create the foundation for the life I am calling in right now… aka, using Feng Shui as a manifestation tool. I am a total homebody who has been obsessed with design for almost a decade, but this new understanding of building home through energetics and desires has Changed. The. Game.
Having grown up in an active renovation site—witness to chaos in home and in life—Meghan quickly developed a keen understanding of spaces in movement, how energy shifts with active changes in the home, and how that energy co-creates our lives from. As such, she has been in this practice of using home as a co-creator long before she understood it as Feng Shui. Throw in a degree in engineering, a degree in fashion design, multiple certificates in Feng Shui, and her experience in creating/re-creating so many different homes… Meghan’s expertise is well rounded and is just as grounded in pragmatism as it is wildly intuitive. This episode is full of flowy, poetic nuggets of wisdom, as Meghan does all things. She is the real deal and I know y’all will love her just as much as I do!

QUOTES
(7:10) “It’s my mission to give people sacred space.”
(8:12) I am someone who is never ready to do anything, I’m a perfectionist, but I thought—
if that life experience to date isn’t enough to be ready to do this… oh and I’ll throw in a couple of certifications… but it was just like, duh.”
(18:31) “I just need to see it, to touch it and feel it, as spiritual as I am, for it to be real.”
(19:48) “Feng Shui is a way of manifesting in the world at large through what we do in the home. Ask me tomorrow and I will have a different definition. It’s for sure just a way of interacting with space. It’s therapy, it’s design, it’s everything. I keep it nebulous on purpose because what I do with you is different than what I would do with someone else.”
(34:00) “I was enjoying just the intuitive Feng Shui; I ordered a bunch of books—I didn’t find a lot that I really resonated with but I pieced it all together, which I think everyone should do anyways with anything, right? Take what works, don’t knock the rest, but you don’t have to adhere to it all.”
(35:36) “I talk a lot about space to feel because I wasn’t raised where it was safe to have my feelings. My feelings were an inconvenience.”
(39:55) “I’m so tired of everyone living for some magical future thing. Let’s love where we live right now. If that means investing in white paint for a rental apartment, so be it, it’s gonna make a world of difference. There is just something so powerful about owning a moment in time. Because as soon as you do, guess what happens? You get fast forwarded to wherever you need to be."
