Gentle Whispers in the Wind Giving a Nudge on Her Path with Lisa Kahn | The Enchanted Earth Podcast

 This episode of the Enchanted Earth Podcast features Lisa Kahn, a visionary interior designer who shares her transformative journey towards creating sanctuaries that promote well-being. Lisa discusses her personal challenges, including her daughter's health issues and her own emotional struggles, and how a moment of inspiration by a lake led her to embrace the concept of sanctuary. She explains how designing safe and peaceful spaces not only helped her family but also shaped her career, leading her to integrate sanctuary into her design philosophy, write a book, and start the Finding Sanctuary Institute. Additionally, Lisa and the host delve into the broader implications of creating such spaces, especially in the wake of COVID-19, and the importance of combining eco-psychology with interior design to enhance our connection to nature and improve overall well-being.
