Something about your home not quite right? Hi, I'm Suzanne Hanger and I'm here to help you have a home that feeds your soul. I believe that everyone has a purpose and that if we all lived our purpose, we'd have peace and harmony throughout the World. But in order to fully live that purpose our homes must feed our souls.
I hope you'll find Soul's Home® TV helpful in giving you the tools and inspiration you need to have a home that feeds your soul, so you can live your purpose. If this sounds like it's for you, please subscribe and I'll look forward to seeing you each Thursday morning. Either way, I wish you well on your journey.
Living with Purpose | Are You Confused About Whether to Sell or Stay?
Are you confused about whether to sell or stay in your home?
In my workshops and private sessions, I often attract people who are struggling with selling or staying in their home. Our homes have such a major impact on the quality of our lives that it makes sense how difficult this decision is.
As I’ve listened to people’s stories, I’ve found a common thread to the struggle. The ego points out all the reasons to sell when your soul calls you to stay. Or, your ego convinces you to stay when your soul is itching to leave. Unfortunately, it can be very difficult to distinguish between the voice of your ego versus your soul. When this happens, it’s important to tune into your soul’s purpose for this time in your life.
Look at your house from that lens and ask if your house supports you in living that purpose. If your home supports your purpose, stay until your purpose or something about your home changes. If your house doesn’t support your purpose, then it may be time go or it may be time to make changes to your home or decor, so it does feed your soul.
While figuring this out may sound easy, it rarely is. If you need help hearing if your soul is calling you to stay or go, I’d love to talk with you. Just click the link to schedule a free 30-minute call.
In future episodes, we’ll explore specific situations where the choice to stay or go can be difficult starting with when it’s time for adult children to leave their parent’s house.
Until next week, I wish you well on your journey.

Living with Purpose | Is the Declaration of Independence Soulful? A look from a Soul’s Home® Perspective.
Is the Declaration of Independence soulful?
In honor of Independence Day today, let’s look at the Declaration of Independence from a Soul’s Home® perspective. Community is an important Soul’s Home® ingredient and the Declaration of Independence is the foundation upon which this community of America was built. But does the Declaration of Independence have soul?
When it was written in 1776, the 13 American colonies were controlled by Britain’s King George III who imposed military rule, restricted trade, and collected taxes without representation or protection of life, liberty or property. One could say that the ego of King George III attempted to overrule the souls of the colonists.
The most famous line of the Declaration of Independence “…that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.” shows a refusal to allow a government to quash the souls of its people. It is this notion that our Creator gives us all the right to be free and live to pursue our happiness that is the essence of the Journey to Your Soul’s Home®.
Here in America, wherever you choose to live, you are free to connect with your soul because your right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is protected by your government. Okay, yes! I acknowledge that this is not always true and that when the founding fathers said, “all men are created equal’, they did not include women, native Americans or slaves. While these omissions were not soulful, the work that was done to create a government that was by the people and for the people allows for a course correction over time.
Most days, we take our rights for granted and give little thought to others in countries that inhibit their people from living their soul’s purpose. But today, let’s appreciate the opportunity we have to live soulful lives in our American community and register our wish for everyone around the world to be able to do the same.
If you feel moved, write about this below because sharing is good for your soul. Next time, we’ll ask, “What gives you the right to own land?”
Until next week, I wish you well on your journey.

Living with Purpose | Does Your Décor Reflect Your Spiritual Purpose or Is it Keeping You Stuck? How To Use Décorating To Get Un-stuck.
Does your décor reflect your spiritual purpose or is it keeping you stuck?
A couple of months ago, I was spinning the wheels on my business and problem solving was going nowhere. Then, I remembered my father’s advice about getting stuck in the snow, “Spinning your wheels digs you in deeper making it hard to get out. Instead rock back and forth until you can move forward.”
That’s the same way the Journey to Your Soul’s Home® works. You shift your focus back and forth between your purpose and your home to move forward. It was time to shift my focus to my home.
When we’d last decorated, the spiritual purpose of our home was to maintain a connection with Eric’s children through their college years, re-align our marriage to an empty nest and develop my Journey to Your Soul’s Home®. With three kids in college and my business just starting, we chose not to spend a lot of time or money decorating. I hung art from my single years even though Eric didn’t like it and put pictures of the kids everywhere so we’d feel connected to them. But now the spiritual purpose of our lives is different.
The kids are mostly independent but well connected to us, our marriage is stronger than ever and I’m confident in my Soul’s Home® approach. The new spiritual purpose of our home is to enjoy our strong marital union and use it to support each other in our work. But our home didn’t reflect that. It felt stuck in time and I felt like a fraud. How could I teach anyone how to have a Soul’s Home® if I didn’t?
In the coming weeks, I’ll share how we fixed that! In the meantime, if you need my help hearing if your soul is calling you to re-decorate or move, I’d love to talk with you. Just click Contact Me to get in touch.
Until next week, I wish you well on your journey.
