The Power of Scent - How it impacts our lives in amazing ways! My interview with Founder of UK-based Floral Street Fragrances - Michelle Feeney

It was quite a week last week in the studio. We released two great episodes of the show.

I was excited to have my interview with London-based Michelle Feeney - founder, CEO and creative mind behind Floral Street Fragrances (personal fragrances and home scents). It was a perfect conversation with someone following their passion for work and life!

Michelle Feeney - Founder of Floral Street

As you know, as a creative person that wears many hats - I like talking to other creative people that are living a life that they love and ones that are open to sharing their story and their journey.

Michelle was wonderful and honest about her career and following her intuition about what her journey has been all about. I found it inspiring and motivating personally. Since it’s release - you guys have responded in a big way as well! Very exciting.

I loved that her product line is all about being eco-friendly and sustainably-produced. What an inspiration! It was uplifting to talk to someone that is doing their part to make a difference in our world. My hat goes off to her and Floral Street!

Home is so personal to each of us. All our senses are affected when we come home or visit a place that we connect with. The power of scent is such a big part of that! I wanted to talk to someone that knows all about the power of scent and how it can affect us in a very powerful, deep, nostalgic way. A certain scent can instantly transport us back in time to a favorite place, a time or to a person. The power of scent is so unique to each of us and yet it’s so powerful as a tool to uplift us, motivate us, calm us or just bring us to a happy place for a moment.

The Science Behind Home Design

This episode of The Driven by Design Studio resonated with many of you. I heard from so many people after the release of this show.

As many of you know, I feel that changing things up in our home environments can affect us on so many levels - in ways we see and ways we do not see. This episode talked about the science behind changes and how it does impact our brains!

Simply - the science and research proves that changing up our home environments can truly change our mood, our attitude and our motivation.

Hence, CHANGE IS GOOD!

I know, because I have seen it in all my years of doing home design for real people - that change is hard, change is scary and change is stressful for many of you. I get it. However, I have seen how powerful and uplifting it can be for change to have taken place in a home space and how it can re-energize you in powerful ways!

I am glad this show made an impact on many of you. I heard from so many people telling me that they had put off making change happen (for years in some cases!) and they finally took the steps to set the changes in motion. Even little steps or small changes are good - you are doing things differently and that is how you begin! I love that!

In the end, I am happy to hear that the show is helping you and inspiring you.The Driven by Design Studio
