Episode 9:
The home is for living, not for staging with Sara Kelly of Your Aligned Home
The first time Sara and I spoke I knew immediately that we were on the same wavelength. The pursuit of meaningful simplicity, easing friction points, and living in alignment with ourselves (and not the social media feed) is her wheelhouse, and my happy place. We both recognized the same problem and went about trying to create solutions that, without knowing, have the same goals in mind. Her “big picture” approach is exactly the 30,000 foot view that can help many of us make swift and lasting change to be able to recharge at home- isn’t that the point?
Show Notes
This week we are talking with Sara Kelly from Your Aligned Home. Sara is originally from Nebraska but now lives in upstate New York. She is a wife, mom, and dog lover. She’s also had over 20 jobs throughout her life and does not consider herself a career woman. Sara is currently a business owner who is trying to, as cliché as it sounds, enjoy every moment life currently has to offer.
Your Aligned Home originated from Sara going into other people’s homes and asking them what they would have a second version of themselves do. She quickly realized that every woman felt like she was failing in some aspect of managing the home. What Sara also learned was that every woman had a superpower that she herself did not recognize. We all have strengths and weaknesses and the goal of Your Aligned Home is to put systems into place so that anyone under the same roof can follow steps that allow a home to function in a more efficient manner.
Sara also speaks on the importance of not judging other people’s homes when we walk into them and therefore, as a result, not feeling the societal pressure to clean our homes and apologize for “the mess” every time a guest comes over. She reminds us to ask ourselves, are we tidying up our homes because it will make us feel better or because someone is going to judge me if I don't?
