Yet ANOTHER Activerain SUCCESS Story
I have had more then a few clients find my posts on a Google search when looking for a Feng Shui Consultant in New York and this one was no exception. Some clients will oftentimes come across one post that strikes them-and they will call you. From the things you write and the pictures you show they believe you are the person they are looking for.
I know there is some controversy about posting the "before" shots of a home when staging....or when implements Feng Shui and doing a Redesign or "Makeover" and it's a point well taken. A while back I had done a New York City Apartment with Feng Shui and the specific purpose of having my client change her bedroom to attract some love into her life.
Some of you might remember it: Feng Shui A New York City Apartment--Working with Small Spaces by Feng Shui Long Island If you don't, you might enjoy the before and after shots of a New York City Feng Shui Apartment.
Recently, someone in New York City came across my Feng Shui post and as soon as she saw the pictures of just this one room she called me. She is looking for a change of Energy in her space and also wants some help with color choices and furniture placement to allow a good flow of Energy into her space which she feels may be lacking. That post convinced her it should be me. She said you can absolutely FEEL the Energy in there.
There is a value to posting the "Before" shots (with the client's permission) to show the actual changes that have been made. Our clients see things one way but Home Stagers, Feng Shui Consultants and Interior Designers see things another. And we can change the appearance of a place to make it warm and inviting.
In this case I have stayed in touch with this wonderful client (who is, by the way, currently on vacation with a very, very special person she met after the consultation) and I want to thank her for allowing me to show her pictures. And Activerain for giving us all a wonderful platform that is wonderful for Business, Friendships and a wealth of information! Thank you again, Activerain.

Carol, There certainly IS power in the rain...and some beautiful souls such as yourself. Thank you for your beautiful comment.
Lisa, It's wonderful when someone finds a post and connects for one reason or another. And to think some people still don't believe in blogging!
Julie, You are a dear friend to me as well...and to think I have always wanted to see the Red Rocks of Utah (it's on my list!)....I would love to one day meet you in person.
Sally, You have had wonderful success as well....people find your beautiful posts and see your breathtaking pictures and see your knowledge....and they only want YOU.
Betty, Thank you so much. I am glad so many misconceptions of Feng Shui are gone now and people are so open to you...it does help or I wouldn't do it.
Joan, I loved that room as well, it came out just beautiful. But my client was very open to what I had to say and that makes a huge difference.
Missy, I love to see the transformations if a client will allow it. Most of my clients don't so I am always very grateful when they do allow me to post.
Fernando, I'm glad I enjoy it...if blogging were work to me, I wouldn't be doing it! And it IS nice to know people are reading.
Grace, AR has been good to me--and MANY others :) You've got some wonderful things going on in your area!
I love the Active Rain success stories! Thanks for adding yours and demonstrating to those who may not have stories of their own yet, the reassurance that this is one of the best tools on the net!
Oh Rich, it comes...Persistance and writing often and you just sometimes strike a nerve with people.
Carole- The before and after photos are the greatest visual testimonial and endorsement you can get. I remember that post and that tiny apartment and I could also feel the energy change just in the photos! You are a blessed and talented Feng Shui consultant!
