Welcome!

Hi, I’m Lucinda, founder of Enlivened Spaces and Enlivened Voices. I’m a Master-certified Feng Shui Consultant and Confident Communication Coach, and I help people transform their spaces and their lives.

Your space either backs you, or holds you back. My work is about turning your home into a pillar of support, a nurturing sanctuary that restores energy, unlocks flow, and helps you thrive in every area of life.

I’ve been fascinated by Feng Shui since first reading about it in 2007. A library of books later, and a career shift meant I had the opportunity to turn my passion into a profession and formally train as a consultant in 2020. I am professionally trained in both Western and Classical Feng Shui, certified through two Gold Standard Schools, the London School of Feng Shui and the International School of Feng Shui. My approach is a fusion of East meets West, rooted in ancient wisdom yet simple and practical enough to create immediate, tangible shifts.

I specialise in reading the energy of your space and identifying the patterns affecting your life. Then, I guide you to make simple, aligned shifts that support your vision, style, and goals, creating balance and harmony in both your home and your life, with care and compassion.

I’ve helped clients around the world: families who were constantly tired, entrepreneurs blocked in business growth, and individuals seeking clarity and energy after major life transitions or home renovations. The results often feel magical, but the process is refreshingly simple and deeply transformational.

From Burnout to Balance: My Turning Point

A few years ago, my life and career came to a screeching halt. I was diagnosed with chronic burnout and nervous system dysfunction. I was exhausted, in chronic pain, and barely functioning. My body and mind had completely shut down. I couldn’t move properly, hold a conversation, or think clearly.

Underneath the physical collapse was a deeper message: something had to change. That’s when I turned toward something I had long been curious about but never fully explored: Classical Feng Shui.

A home aligned, a life transformed

As I analysed my home through the lens of Flying Stars Feng Shui, which is essentially the astrology of space, or the birth chart for buildings, the patterns were clear and confronting. My home was classified as “Supportive for Money but Not for People”, what’s known as a Double Facing home. While that building type supports financial and career success, it can undermine relationships, health and wellbeing, and emotional balance.

Suddenly, everything made sense. The more I studied my environment, the more I saw my own story mirrored in the space around me. The writing was quite literally on the wall. My home wasn’t just reflecting my internal imbalance, it was reinforcing it.

Feng Shui in Action

This image of my living room is Feng Shui in action. My own home, my very first client, and the space where my healing began.

It didn’t always look like this. Before I applied Feng Shui, my space reflected my inner state: fragmented, burnt out (cue lightbulbs blowing everywhere!), and lacking any real cohesion or alignment. It didn’t feel like me but it reflected the version of me that was stuck in survival mode, severely depleted and just getting through each day, not the person I truly was, or wanted to become.

So I got to work transforming and aligning my home, applying Feng Shui: clearing out what no longer supported me, and intentionally bringing in things that did. I cleared, cleansed, remedied, refreshed and rebalanced my space with deep intention.

Sometimes it was as simple as moving a painting to a new wall, shifting a pair of lamps, or swapping cushions between rooms. Small, intentional shifts that changed the whole energy. Other times it meant adding an “upgrade” not a fortune spent, but a piece that felt right, that embodied my essence, as well as bringing balance to the energy of the space.

My Space was my mirror and my medicine

It wasn’t an overnight fix. It had taken years to reach that state of depletion, and it took time, patience, and commitment to return to health. But the journey was profound.  As my home shifted into harmony, so did I.

That experience reshaped my understanding of healing and the power our environment has over our life. My space was my mirror and my medicine, holding me as I returned to clarity, vitality, and purpose. This personal transformation now informs all the work I share with others, helping people align their inner and outer environments so they can heal, create, and live with greater freedom and flow.

If you’ve ever walked into a space and instantly felt calm, energised, or inspired, you’ve already experienced the power of Feng Shui. My work is about bringing that same sense of alignment into your own home, so it becomes a true sanctuary that supports the life you’re ready to live

The Power of Space

Your home is more than just where you live, it's a reflection of who you are. When a space feels “off,” it often mirrors an internal imbalance. But, when you realign your environment, the energy shifts and so do you. You will feel more balance, harmony, and energised. Opportunities start to appear and open. Life begins to flow again.

Your space can either support of sabotage your wellbeing and purpose. Within intention and alignment, it can become a powerful ally in your personal and professional growth.

My Approach

I integrate Classical & Contemporary Systems of Feng Shui into My Practice, blending ancient wisdom with modern insight to create environments that support your clarity, confidence and wellbeing, at home, at work and in life.

My approach is both practical and soulful, designed to support the realities of modern living while honoring timeless traditions.

Every consultation is personal and compassionate, rooted in ancient wisdom yet communicated with clarity. There are no gimmicks or quick fixes, just thoughtful, meaningful shifts designed to align your space with your life.

Whether you live in the city, the suburbs, or the countryside, whether you rent or own, Feng Shui can be applied to any home or workspace. My role is to offer practical, personalised guidance grounded in empathy, design, and connection so your environment becomes a true partner in your wellbeing and success.

Classical & Contemporary Feng Shui Systems I Work With

My Journey

From global newsrooms to sacred spaces. Before founding Enlivened Spaces and Enlivened Voices, I was an international athlete and ocean sailor and later built a career in media and communications in London.

Even as a child, I was deeply sensitive to the energy of space, constantly rearranging my room, swapping bedrooms with siblings, and making sure everything had its place. Feng Shui was within me from the beginning.

My career has been colourful. After university, I poured myself into rowing, and the commitment from me and my crew led to a Commonwealth Gold for England. From there, I circumnavigated the globe on an ocean racing yacht before settling into life in London as a journalist and broadcaster with Global Radio, Sky News, and the BBC.

That chapter led me into corporate communications and marketing, where I directed creative content and international event coverage as a global executive producer, until my health brought everything to a screeching halt.

These experiences shaped my resilience and adaptability, teaching me to perform under pressure while also listening deeply, communicating with intention, and holding space for transformation. I learned to see both the big picture and the fine details, skills I now bring to my work with clients.

Over time, my path evolved into speaker coaching, confident communication workshop facilitation, and media training, helping professionals find their voice and communicate with confidence and clarity. I find enormous joy and fulfilment in empowering others to flourish.

Alongside this, I was drawn deeper into the energetic work of Feng Shui. What began as personal curiosity grew into a calling, one I now pursue with gratitude and purpose.

I have always been drawn to the esoteric, alternative health, astrology, the greater cosmos, and the unseen energy that affects us on every level. I am highly sensitive to the weather and atmospheric pressure. I can sense when rain is coming, snow will fall, the scent in the air, or when a thunderstorm is brewing, as well as being attuned to the cycles of the moon.

I feel deeply connected to nature, the seasons, and the natural rhythm of life. I have embedded the Eastern principles of acupuncture and Ayurveda in my own self-care for decades, and these principles of working with the energy of the body align beautifully with my work in Feng Shui, which works with the energy of homes and buildings. Feng Shui is often described as ‘acupuncture for the home’.

I hold multiple certifications in Classical Feng Shui, energy clearing, intentional design, and space activation, and I bring both structure and soul to every space I work with.

When I’m not with clients, you’ll find me happiest in nature hiking, cycling, swimming, sailing, rowing, skiing, in meditation, at yoga or simply rearranging my space for the thousandth time!
