What is LifeStyle Design?

 

 I arrived at LifeStyle Design, through a series of projects in Graduate School after years of studying various therapuetic modalities personally and porfessionally. Over time it has developed into a comrehensive and specialized set of change-based facilitation approaches founded in artisitc processes. The personal and professional development that have occured in the process have been utterly transformative in every sphere of my life. My mission is to support the transmission of this process out of myself into the lives of others by helping them design objects, experiences, and systems of sustainable growth. 

 

As a concept and practice, LifeStyle Design, is a culmination of my passion for the arts and education coupled with my professional and personal development in the Behavioral Sciences, Psychology, and other therapuetic modalities. Essentially, it is the culmination of health, healing, purpose, and a desire to put this work in service to a greater good. My discovery of and identification with the term 'lifestyle designer' happened in my second year of Graduate studies in the Arts and Consciousness program at JFK University in Berkeley, CA (2014) and continues to evolve with each new client, project, and community collaboration. 

 

This unique approach is founded in conscious engagment in and commitiment to a cyclical rotation of key creative and mindfulness practices, coupled with the belief that every aspect of our lives is an art form filled with limitless potential for learning, beauty, and meaning-making. It is based in the idea that by aligning with the creative genius of our inner children, through supported access to symbolic, intentional, and communal activity, we can align with the natural cycles that compose our lives to find precious healing, learning, and relationship building in the process. A single moment can seed tremendous change. Through simple kindness to ourselves and others, guided mindfulness, and authentic creative inquiry, we can actively support essential and necessary life change. We can choose to boldly embody the creative, adaptive people we need to be to meet life's inevitable shifts with consciousness, creativity, and vitality. 

 

LifeStyle Design is the choice to live life as creatively, consciously, and resourcefully as possible. It is the belief that all living things, as part of a larger whole, are interconnected... that our choices are rooted in this knowing and the impact of our decisions matter. 

Let's make something unique, just for you. Whether celebrating a special day or looking for that special gift, I will work with you to create something that no one else has.
 
Many of the pieces featured here are based around an item that the client wanted incorported into the piece. This is one of my favorite ways to create, however not a requirement. 
 
Have a special memento sitting around? Broken jewelry? Looking for something that no one else has?  I'll work with you to translate the right intentions into a custom piece from any starting point.
 
How it works:
 
∞ Custom work starts at $60 and ranges to $400 depending on time, materials and number of pieces.
∞ The amount for your custom piece will be agreed upon upfront during a consultation call. If interested, just reach out with questions/ ideas.
∞ We'll discuss what you're looking to have made and determine whether I can help you. I will give you a quote.
∞ If you would like to proceed with the commission, I will adjust this listing to 50% of your total and email you a link to make your first purchase.
∞This will become a non-refundable deposit.
∞ Most projects take about two weeks for completion, more or less depending on your vision. If you would like it faster, we can place a rush on it for an extra charge, agreed upon up front. 
∞ Once I've completed your piece(s), I will email you pictures (and likely a short video) to make sure it is to your liking.
∞ Once you've approved it, I will ship it and send you confirmation along with the link to pay the remaining half of your order.
 
Curious? Have an idea, but not sure? Reach out :) I love exploratory conversations! If I can't help you, I will do my best to connect you to someone who can.
