She Designed a Life She Loves

In today's episode I chat to Rose Guida about all things astrology and more importantly how we can use astrology as a compass for our purpose and business. Rose is a postpartum astrologer and rebirth guide for mothers navigating identity transformation after birth. Through astrology and embodiment, she helps women reconnect with their purpose, reclaim their voice, and remember who they are beyond motherhood. Her work reframes postpartum not as a loss of identity, but as a powerful initiation into deeper self-trust, clarity, and personal powerThis episode is jam packed with what astrology actually is and how you can lean into it to feel empowered in your direction and she also does a reading on me so you can see what it is like to have an astrology reading done for yourself. It's pretty cool.You can find Rose @the.rosefrequency and you can enquire and book your own reading via her instagram - send her a DM.

What does it really mean to design a life you love? In this episode, I’m taking you back to the moment everything shifted for me — when I stopped feeling like life was happening to me and started seeing it through a completely different lens. I share the simple but powerful mindset shift that created a ripple effect across my entire life, and how choosing gratitude, perspective, and intention changed everything from my daily experience of motherhood to the bigger opportunities that came my way.We also dive into the real, grounded side of manifestation — because it’s not just about thinking differently, it’s about becoming the woman who lives that life and taking aligned action to support it. I walk you through my 3-phase approach to moving from feeling stuck and disconnected to creating a life that feels full, intentional, and truly yours. If you’re ready to stop waiting and start living, this episode will show you where to begin.To join the VIP list for Abundant and Alive head over to this link:Abundant & AliveOr send me a message @she_designed.____If you enjoyed this episode, please hit the subscribe button and leave a 5 star review!You will find Katrina Lumsden on Instagram @she_designedYou will find links to all you need to know about working with Katrina HEREBOOK a Clarity CallJoin the Soul Led Stylist Waitlist

In today’s episode, we dive into one of the biggest foundations of a profitable interior styling business: your mindset around money. I share what really happens when you raise your prices without doing the inner work to back it, and a powerful client story that shows how shifting your beliefs around worth and value can completely change how confidently you quote, sell, and show up. This is the difference between charging more and actually believing you deserve it.I walk you through five key pricing mindset shifts that can instantly impact your profits — from seeing your business as a business (not a hobby), owning your fees with confidence, and never assuming what a client can or can’t afford, to understanding that you’re paid for your expertise, not your hours. If you’re ready to stop undercharging, attract aligned clients, and feel solid in your prices, this episode is for you.____If you enjoyed this episode, please hit the subscribe button and leave a 5 star review!You will find Katrina Lumsden on Instagram @she_designedYou will find links to all you need to know about working with Katrina HEREBOOK a Clarity CallJoin the Soul Led Stylist Waitlist

In today’s episode, I’m diving into a conversation that’s been coming up a lot with my clients—how to actually get new leads and clients when you’re starting out in your interiors business. It can feel really overwhelming in the early days when you don’t have a big portfolio, aren’t feeling confident yet, or simply don’t know how to put yourself out there. So, I wanted to share some practical and soulful ways to gain momentum, build confidence, and start booking the work you dream of.From doing free projects to gain experience, to networking with friends, family, and industry contacts, to getting creative with flyers, markets, and even school newsletters—there are so many ways to open doors. But here’s the key: strategy alone won’t cut it if you don’t believe in yourself. I’ll share why blending mindset with action is the secret sauce to growing your interiors business with confidence and alignment.______If you enjoyed this episode, please hit the subscribe button and leave a 5 star review!  You will find Katrina Lumsden on Instagram @_katrinalumsden_or at the podcast Instagram account @she_designedYou will find links to all you need to know about working with Katrina HEREBOOK a Discovery CallJoin the Soul Led Stylist MembershipGet your FREE Interior Styling Services Guide Template - HERE

For over two decades, I’ve dreamed of owning a home with water views — a place I could see my family gathered, my grandchildren running around, and me sitting back in a deck chair soaking it all in. This vision lived on my vision board for more than 10 years, written in my journals, and even visited in my dreams. But for a long time, I was stuck in the “how.” I thought I had to figure it all out myself, and in doing so, I believe I was blocking it from happening.When I finally leaned into manifestation, let go of the how, and trusted the timing, everything shifted. We sold our home in Gymea Bay with the goal to diversify our assets, renovate, and build equity. It’s not just about creating our dream home — it’s about creating opportunities for the future, including flipping homes with our boys. This is the story of believing it’s yours long before it arrives.If you enjoyed this episode, please hit the subscribe button and leave a 5 star review!  You will find Katrina Lumsden on Instagram @_katrinalumsden_or at the podcast Instagram account @she_designedYou will find links to all you need to know about working with Katrina HEREBOOK a Discovery CallJoin the Soul Led Stylist MembershipGet your FREE Interior Styling Services Guide Template - HERE

In this episode, I’m riffing from the heart about those quiet nudges we feel when something in our business or life is just… off. I open up about the signs and intuitive breadcrumbs that have guided me through every big decision—from opening my store to walking away from a thriving interiors business—and how I’ve learned to fully trust my inner guidance system, even when the path feels unclear.Right now, I’m in my own transition. I love what I do mentoring interior designers, but I know there's another layer calling me. I'm sharing the exact tools I use—journaling, meditation, oracle cards, spirit guides, and signs from the universe—to navigate change with clarity and confidence. This one's for the woman who feels the pull toward something more, even if she doesn’t know what “more” looks like yet.____If you enjoyed this episode, please hit the subscribe button and leave a 5 star review!  You will find Katrina Lumsden on Instagram @_katrinalumsden_or at the podcast Instagram account @she_designedYou will find links to all you need to know about working with Katrina HEREBOOK a Discovery CallJoin the Soul Led Stylist MembershipGet your FREE Interior Styling Services Guide Template - HERE

In this episode, we unpack why intentional stillness is one of the most powerful — and uncomfortable — shifts you can make as a woman in business. If you've ever filled your calendar to avoid the quiet or panicked when things slow down, this one’s for you. Stillness isn’t laziness. It’s the recalibration space your nervous system needs to stop chasing and start receiving.I share the patterns I see in women who are holding too much to hear their own clarity — and how the pause isn’t where momentum dies, but where it regrows. You’ll walk away with a simple practice to start trusting stillness now, before burnout makes it non-negotiable._____If you enjoyed this episode, please hit the subscribe button and leave a 5 star review!  You will find Katrina Lumsden on Instagram @_katrinalumsden_or at the podcast Instagram account @she_designedYou will find links to all you need to know about working with Katrina HEREBOOK a Discovery CallJoin the Soul Led Stylist MembershipGet your FREE Interior Styling Services Guide Template - HERE
