Before I ever wrote about blended families, I spent years studying the thing that quietly shapes every family: the home itself. And this book is where that journey started for me. 🏡

The Principles of Feng Shui by Master Larry Sang is one of the most foundational texts in my library — a clear, principled guide to understanding how the energy and arrangement of a space affects the people who live inside it. Master Sang is one of the foremost Feng Shui teachers in the Western world, and this book takes the practice seriously in a way that is both accessible and genuinely transformative.

Here is what I want you to understand: Feng Shui and blended family life have never been separate topics in my world. The way a home is arranged, the energy it holds, the flow it creates or interrupts — all of it shapes how people feel inside that space. And how people feel in their home shapes how they treat each other. If you are intentionally building a blended family, you are also building an environment. This book will change how you see that responsibility.

Are you familiar with Feng Shui, or is this a new concept for you? I would love to hear where you are starting from.
