Nothing wrong with being an HGTV addict, I’m one myself as are so many home stagers and interior redesigners I know. Many of us get into our home staging business after watching those shows and saying “I can do that!”
We were addicted to decorating even before HGTV.
So many aspiring home stagers write me about:
- Their frustrations with not being financially independent.
- Their lack of self confidence.
- Being stuck in boring jobs that don’t feed their creativity.
These stories make me sad because I see so much potential for change and I really do want to inspire others with new possibilities.
Why do I want to inspire others?
Because I spent 20 years feeling very unhappy with my own life and I found a way to completely reinvent myself. Now I want to share that knowledge with others. That’s a photo of me on my second appearance on HGTV. I never would have dreamed that could be me when I used to sit watching hour after hour of HGTV while I was stuck in my old business.
Many Staging Diva Graduates like Anne Gunson (Brisbane), Victoria Willits (Maryland), Debra Rowley (Washington), Gina Dougherty (California), Donna Dazzo (New York), and Caroline Carter (DC) who have also been on TV, never would have dreamed that was possible for them either!
Whenever I’m feeling unhappy with my situation or stuck, I ask myself:
“If I keep doing what I’m doing, how will my life be any different 3 months from now?”
Then I try to imagine how I’d like my life to look instead and ask:
“What will have to happen for me to get closer to that vision I have of my ideal future?”
You might want to try asking yourself these questions too.
We have more choices in life than we let ourselves believe or imagine.
If you’re an HGTV addict, there’s a good chance you were also born to be a home stager!
The past 2 months may have been packed with family activities and vacations, but you still have time to listen to courses that will help you have a whole new future this fall when the kids go back to school and everyone goes back to their “regular schedules”.
Do you want to go back to your regular schedule in September, or would you like to be filled with plans for a creative career that will give you more control over your time and pay you very well?
What would that new future be worth to you?
What’s standing in your way right now is a lack of information about how to make it happen.
I can change that and it’s not a big time commitment either. You can listen to all 5 courses of the Staging Diva Home Staging Business Training Program in only 10 hours, and you can listen whenever and wherever you like! Save them for a rainy day or quiet summer evening.
The Staging Diva course recordings and study notes, which are emailed to you right after you order, are professionally edited to keep only the best of the best of all my courses.
In these 5 courses, you’ll learn how I went from zero income to earning more in a month than most people earn in half a year. And I did it within my second year as a home stager while supporting my family on my own.
I tell you EXACTLY how I built my staging business from scratch on a shoe string so you can do it too! I want to share my success secrets with you and show you the awesome satisfaction that comes with doing what you love, getting paid well for it, and helping others at the same time.
What will your life look like 3 or even 6 months from now if you keep doing what you’re doing? Now imagine what your life could look like with the right tools to pursue YOUR dreams!

I also love the show! You get great ideas on what to do with the house they bought. Especially when it needs major upgrades.
