How Our Spaces Help Us Thrive with Leidy Klotz

Are your spaces supporting you or stressing you?

If you have ever noticed that you feel calmer, clearer, or more like yourself in certain places, and more mentally cluttered in others, this conversation will explain why and help you become more intentional about your spaces and where you spend your time.

Kelly is joined for a second time by international bestselling author, scientist, and professor of engineering and architecture, Leidy Klotz, to discuss his new book, In a Good Place. Leidy shares how our environments can either support us or work against us, and breaks this down through three core psychological needs we all share: agency, competence, and connection.

Together, Kelly and Leidy explore what it looks like when a space supports these needs, and what happens when it does not. They also talk about practical ways to make your spaces feel more intentional without buying more, how to create a sense of agency in places that may feel out of your control, and how to think about spaces as containers of meaning, especially when decluttering, grieving, or renovating.

As you listen, you will be invited to reflect on your own surroundings and ask: are these spaces helping me feel grounded and supported, or are they weighing me down?

Be inspired to look at your spaces with fresh eyes, simplify what is no longer serving you, and make small, meaningful shifts that help you feel lighter, more capable, and more at home wherever you are.
