Whether you’re renting, buying or renovating, this episode is for you and your happiness…at the place you call home.

I chat with Anita Yokota—licensed therapist turned interior designer, whose work blends psychology with interior design to create spaces that truly support you (you might recognize her work from the Drew Barrymore show.)

If you’ve ever felt stuck in the same old routines, drained by cluttered corners, or like your home just isn’t lifting you up—this might be why: your environment is running on autopilot, not in sync with your wellbeing.

Together, we unpack how home design creates happiness and wellbeing through four mini episodes.

This is part 1: 

  • 00:00 Creating Calm and Creativity at Home
  • 01:35 The Intersection of Therapy and Design
  • 07:11 Transforming Spaces: The Journey of Home Therapy
  • 10:13 The Science of Design and Wellbeing

Topics in this podcast:

  • Easiest ways to declutter so you FEEL calm at home
  • The 3 neuroscience hacks every home needs
  • How home loops conquer procrastination
  • Why your physical & emotional environments are intertwined
  • Creating healthy boundaries in your home


No sledgehammers required—just intention and a few small shifts to make your home feel better than “home.”

Share with anyone who you know deserves a more creative space to thrive.
