Kimberly has hundreds of thousands of followers online and this week people really resonated with something she was saying about the year of the horse and we talk all about it in part two of the podcast but in part one she explains what feng shui is how our homes could be working against us in terms of sleep relationships finances and she gives us simple things that we can do at home
to shift our energy. It's so interesting. Then we get into part two, the bigger picture. We're in the year of the horse. And if 2026 hasn't gone the way that you've expected so far, you're not alone. According to Kimberly, the first few months of this year have felt very heavy for a reason. But what's coming next could be incredibly powerful.
She gives us a few jobs to do this weekend and this week as we head into May before the horse starts to gallop. I was so interested in this conversation. And right at the end, I share something about my own bedroom and how I wake up in the middle of the night feeling very fearful. And Kimberly cracks the code straight away and gives me simple tools that I can do to
to shift the energy in my bedroom and move forward with my life. Absolutely loved it. I hope you enjoy it. So over to Kimberly. Kimberly Gallagher, welcome to The Good Glow. Tell us about you, like where in the world are you? I feel like this is the perfect time to have you as a guest on The Good Glow. So thank you for making the time for us. Oh, it's my absolute pleasure.
Thank you for having me. And it is the timing at the minute in this conversation is just perfect. So I'm from the UK. Originally, I live on the Gold Coast in Australia. So we moved over here about three years ago. And I am a Feng Shui expert and I'm here to try and blend astrology. Feng Shui is like astrology for the home. It's like acupuncture for the home.
It's all about energy in the home and how it impacts us. And so if we can understand what's happening, I just feel that we can prepare for this year a little bit better.

Chapter 2: What is Feng Shui and how can it impact our lives?
Because some homes, they've got a sense of humor. It's really light and it's fun. Or you might think, well, you know, in terms of personality, your home's stubborn. It's really stuck in the mud. It's really cold. Like, what does your house feel like? And does it feel like it's supporting you? So when you come home, do you sleep well? Do you feel comfortable?
Do you feel that you're supported, that there's good communication, there's not many arguments? Every home is going to have arguments. I can't stop rubbish stuff happening. I wish I could because that would be really easy. But what it feels like is that you can get through anything and your home will support you through that. homes where you're going round in circles.
So it might be financial circles, it might be relationship circles, argument circles, health circles, just going round and round. And that tells me that the energy is stuck. And so energy wants to move. Trapping energy is like trapping a toddler in a room, like it would just eventually have a meltdown. And that's what will happen with the energy in your home.
So we've got to be thinking like out with the old and in with the new. So I was reading all of this and I thought, why don't I know about it? Like I'm trying to do my best in lockdown, trying to get a business off the ground, trying to homeschool, all of that jazz. And it feels pretty sticky, putting it politely. And so I was like, right, I've got to get my home feng shui, like whatever that is.
I didn't even know what it was, but I was like, I'm in, you know, I'm in for this. And We use the five elements to balance the energy in the home. So if you've ever had acupuncture, you've got these different meridians, these different lines of energy. And sorry for any acupuncturists listening that I'm simplifying this to this extent.
But all of this energy is running around your body and it's powered by different elements and it's the same in the home. So we'll have earth energy in the home and that's really grounding. It's that toes in the sand sort of feeling. We have water energy, which is the flow, but it's also emotion as well. So then we have metal energy, which is really supportive, but also can feel quite cold.

Chapter 3: Why has 2026 felt different than expected?
And we have fire energy. So this is the... Is your home, does it feel like it needs waking up or is it too much and it's just all a bit hectic in the home? So all of these elements have good sides and bad sides. And when they're out of balance, that's how we feel like too emotional. Things are too stuck, too heightened. There's no growth, like all of these things.
So my job is to come into your home, find out what's happening energetically and I balance it. If your home is too heavy and the energy isn't flowing, you're putting your intentions out there to the universe, but it's not reaching it. So it's a bit like having a mobile phone in the middle of the woods. Like you've got the tools to make the call, but you can't get the reception out there.
And that's what it's like in your home. So you're like, please help me with this. Stop the arguments. Please make me feel better. And you know,
Chapter 4: What practical tips can we use to shift energy in our homes?
Let me win the lotto. All of these things. But if it's not going anywhere, then nothing is helping you. And you're just getting more and more exhausted. Totally. Totally. And that's where the burnout, the overwhelmed, the not sleeping, the arguments, because it's like a pressure cooker in your home. The energy isn't going anywhere. And I am quite often people's last resort.
And so it's quite heavy sometimes. And, you know, I... And I shed many tears because of what people are going through, but I'm also so honoured and blessed that people feel that they can trust me with this. their problems, their issues, whatever it is, and turn their lives around for them. And, you know, this magic can happen in so many ways. Sometimes it's calm.
Sometimes it's a neurodiverse, a very neurodiverse household. And it just feels 10% better. But really the magic for me is people... Bringing a sense of calm and happiness and support into their home.
And it makes sense, right? Because say with manifesting and manifesting gets a bad rep because, you know, people who don't fully understand it will say, you can't just think things into existence. That's ridiculous. Whereas people who are actually manifesting know that you have to do the work yourself. You know, you've set your intention or what you want to manifest.
And then the most important thing is that you're showing up every day and setting that intention for yourself is going to make you want to do the work. So the same with the home, I suppose, in that you're saying that people's energy changes and things that they've been waiting on happen. Is it because their setup is...
working for them as opposed to against them so instead of working from maybe a depleted state they feel enriched they feel empowered and they have space to move forward yeah and I think it's a bit of both like because it's funny because my husband isn't spiritual at all we couldn't be more literally yin and yang if we tried like he works in construction and it's all you know very very set and here I am you know talking about energy in the home but
What I know is that when I look at somebody's energy in the home and I know it's heavy and I can clear it, then people, that energy is going to be cleared. People are going to be being more positive. And that is honestly why truly remarkable things happen because you've got the power and the energy of your home and you've got the mindset yourself as well. And if you've ever been to a house,
It might be family, it might be like elderly relatives where they never open the door and the windows are closed all the time and they've got all the trinkets everywhere, like all of these things. And you go and spend some time with them and you feel utterly drained when you come out. You feel really tired or there's homes where it is just pure chaos down to the animals as well.
Like everybody is just... there's no judgment here honestly like everyone is on that high level and children and animals are the ones that pick up on it first they are so open to this energy and so in homes if people come away feeling depleted like you know it because you've done what you can in your home to try and make it feel better but that depleted energy is really heavy and

Chapter 5: What are the signs that your home energy might be stuck?
Like all of this stuff.
this weekend let it go because you've got to build from these really strong foundations as to where you're going because if you don't get it right in May June's going to feel even worse and July's going to feel even more worse that's awful English but it's going to escalate August is for alignment so we've got three months before everything is going to feel aligned but you're only going to feel aligned if you've done all this before and so
Doing this scary stuff, like getting rid of things, there's a distinct difference between deep in my gut, I know this isn't right, person, situation, old version of yourself. Or there's a feeling of, I want to do this. It's aligned, but it's scary. There's a sliver of a difference between those two feelings. And putting yourself out there, you know, is scary.
In my 40s, like, putting myself out all of a sudden on Instagram, you think, oh...
what am I doing like I wear the same clothes all the time like you criticize yourself so much but you're only seeing you when other people see you they're seeing you in their own eyes and everybody will see you completely differently so don't let yourself get in your own way of what you want to do because the year of the fire horse it wants to put you in the place of
of fun, of safety, like the horses together galloping in a herd, like that's where you want to be. You don't want to be the horses bolting from something that you're too scared of. Oh, I love it.
So finally, this episode is going out on Sunday. So most people will listen to this episode either on Sunday or Monday, especially if I, a specific reason to listen as soon as it's released, which is we're in this period and there's certain things that we need to
get on and do so if someone's listening on Sunday or Monday what can we do I know that there's big work to be done as in letting go what other people think of us and there may be some rooms or drawers that need to be uncluttered but is there little tiny things that will just take a minute or two that we can free ourselves up
Definitely. And, you know, we've got until probably like the middle of next, like Wednesday, Thursday, before it really kicks in with the May energy from the fire horse. But just even just making the decision that you are going to let go of these things, the people, the situations, the emotions, you're going to try a little bit harder.
