What if our homes could heal us, nurture us, and tell the stories of who we are? In this captivating episode, we are joined by Valerie Andrews, author of Sanctuary: The Inner Life of Home, to delve into the profound connection between our living spaces and our inner lives. Drawing on her expertise in Jungian psychology and storytelling, Valerie helps us uncover the deeper layers of what makes a home more than just four walls.
Together, we explore the concept of home as a safe haven, its role in times of trauma, and the power of rewriting personal narratives to create a new story of belonging. Valerie also shares how to foster meaningful connections through "homely conversations" and how to transform our spaces into sanctuaries of healing and creativity.
With thanks and gratitude for all of our listeners.
