Q: I’m looking to remodel my home. What should the first step be?
A: Find an experienced design-build remodeling contractor—someone who is well-versed in design, construction, products, costs, and attention to detail. Excellent communication is crucial, too. Check their references, years of remodeling experience, and additional remodeling-specific certifications. Next, identify a realistic budget, which will allow the remodeling professional to develop an ideal design and help you select products that will deliver results within that budget.

Q: How do I know if wellness coaching is right for me?
A: If you find yourself struggling to reach your health goals, a wellness coach can help uncover what your obstacles are while helping you create a plan with the necessary tools to overcome them. What’s more, they can enable change by focusing on your needs, values, and vision while holding you accountable to your personal goals.
