About this episode

In this episode, Rachel reflects on her business journey, emphasizing the importance of realignment and authenticity amidst astrological influences.

A Rebirth in Business: Realignment, Retrogrades & Raw Intention In this short and sweet solo episode, I’m reconnecting with you after a much-needed pause. I light a candle, pull a card from my Rider-Waite deck—the Nine of Wands —and reflect on its powerful message about burnout, boundaries, and being close to completion. With the Aries New Moon, a solar eclipse, and both Mercury and Venus in retrograde, it feels like the perfect time to slow down and realign. I share what’s been unfolding behind the scenes—from stepping away from projects that no longer felt aligned, to returning to my roots in holistic interior design. This episode is completely unedited and from the heart. I’m embracing simplicity and authenticity, and I want to encourage you to do the same in your business. I also share a little about my new 90-day one-on-one coaching offer, updates with Design Coven, and exciting ASID events coming up here in San Diego—especially the IP Expo happening on Earth Day (April 22nd), which I’ll be moderating.
