Create the Space

Cody Maher | Feng Shui Consultant

Create the Space is a podcast about home energy and how the spaces we live in influence our clarity, health, wealth, relationships, motivation, and momentum. Hosted by Cody Maher, the show features thoughtful conversations with interesting people who are intentionally designing their lives. Through these conversations, listeners explore topics like creating supportive routines, decluttering, home energy, decision making, and how our environment influences clarity and momentum. From entrepreneurs and leaders to women navigating reinvention or life transition, each episode looks at how our homes quietly influence the way we think, feel, and move through life. Rather than teaching Feng Shui step-by-step, the conversations reveal how our environment shapes our daily experience. Through stories and reflections, listeners begin to see how decluttering, home routines, and small shifts in their space can create meaningful change. At the end of each episode, Cody offers a short Feng Shui reflection that connects the conversation back to the home. These insights may touch on Feng Shui basics, Feng Shui bedroom layout, Feng Shui living room flow, or simple ways to reset the energy of your home so it better supports your goals, creativity, and wellbeing. Create the Space is for the woman who is ready to stop living on autopilot and become more intentional about the life she is building. Whether you are navigating reinvention, leadership, entrepreneurship, or simply wondering how to feel motivated again, this podcast offers grounded conversations and practical perspective to help you create a home that supports your energy, clarity, and momentum.

    She Knew before the Mammogram did

    Cindy Ryan is a mom, daughter, energy teacher and spiritual guide. She works with large organizations and leadership teams, helping people read the energy dynamics inside a team and learn to regulate within it. She is a Usui Reiki Master who teaches all four levels, and she is in a two-year course of study to deepen her own practice. She is also a detachment therapist and divorce coach. Her life has been her greatest teacher. Divorce, chronic pain, leaving a career she spent nearly two decades building and, most recently, beating breast cancer taught her that wisdom comes from living. Her work rests on one belief: mindfulness lives in how we choose to show up, moment by moment. Her two nearly grown boys have taught her the most about resilience and love.Connect with Cindy   CHAPTER MARKERS 00:00 Welcome Cindy Ryan to Create the Space 01:43 Feng Shui Under the Bed: Clearing the History of Heaviness04:28 Who Is Cindy Ryan?

    Why " Cheat Day" is ruining your relationship with food with Nancy Sidnam

    In this episode, Cody sits down with registered dietitian Nancy, founder of Health and Home Long Island, for a conversation about simplifying nutrition in a world full of conflicting advice. Nancy shares her path from a decade in clinical dietetics and behavior-change coaching at Noom to running her own practice focused on women and families. Together, Cody and Nancy dig into why diet culture creates so much fear and shame around eating, why the word "cheat day" needs to go, and how stress and mindset affect digestion and nutrition just as much as the food itself. Nancy breaks down her real-world philosophy on balance, why the food pyramid still holds up, and how she helps clients build sustainable habits by starting small instead of chasing a "perfect" meal plan. The conversation also covers feeding kids without creating food anxiety, navigating picky eaters, and why families need clear personal values (not more social media noise) to guide their food choices. Cody and Nancy close by introducing The Kitchen Reset, their joint in-home service for Long Island families that combines Nancy's nutrition and kitchen-organization expertise with Cody's feng shui approach to create a kitchen environment that truly supports how a family eats and lives. Key Topics CoveredNancy's journey from clinical dietitian to behavior-change coach to private practiceWhy "cheat day" language damages your relationship with foodThe connection between stress, mindset, and digestionIs the food pyramid still relevant? Nancy's take on modern nutrition guidelinesHow to build sustainable eating habits without a "perfect" meal planFeeding kids: avoiding food-as-reward and reducing mealtime anxietyGetting clear on your personal food values (budget, time, convenience, organic or not)Why the kitchen is the emotional "heartbeat" of the homeIntroducing The Kitchen Reset: a joint nutrition + feng shui home service About NancyNancy is a registered dietitian with over ten years of experience, including early work at the digital health company Noom. She now runs Health and Home Long Island, a private practice helping women and families simplify nutrition, reduce food-related stress, and build healthier kitchen environments.

    From Intention to Reality Behind the Scenes of a Home Transformation

    Welcome back, friend, to Create the Space with Cody Maher. In this special episode, I’m inviting you behind the scenes to experience what it truly means to intentionally align your home—and your life—with your deepest purpose. Today, you’ll join me for a raw and inspiring six-month check-in with my beautiful client, Cathy, as we revisit the journey we began together through my Activated Home process. You’ll hear the moment Cathy opens her Silver Box ritual, revealing intentions she’d completely forgotten—only to discover just how much of her vision for connection, abundance, and authentic living has already come to life. We’ll dive into rituals, surprises, and the magic that happens when you stop forcing outcomes and start creating real space for your highest calling. If you’re craving proof that honoring your environment can become a catalyst for extraordinary change, this one is for you. I’m so glad you’re here—let’s create the space together. What You'll Learn: What it feels like when manifestations actually land in real life How the helpful people and travel area of your home supports what's coming in The 30/30/30 framework: earth luck, heaven luck, and human luck Why writing your intentions down and forgetting about them is part of the magic How feng shui blends intention with action to create real change Why the intentions we don't write down are often the ones still asking to be felt Thank you so much for being here.
