The Awakening Spaces Podcast - Conscious Construction for a Healthy Home
Awakening Spaces explores the profound connection between our physical environments and our inner consciousness. We guide homeowners, designers, and wellness seekers beyond simply discussing "toxin-free" building methods to examine who we actually become on our "toxin-free" journey.
In this podcast we’re not only talking about windows, walls, and wiring. Through expert interviews, case studies, and actionable guidance, we will explore how mindful design choices affect our relationships, stress levels, and overall well-being. Drawing from my background in design, building biology, and building science I guide listeners through both the practical and philosophical aspects of creating homes that elevate our health and consciousness.
Each week, you’ll receive grounded guidance and actionable tips to help you eliminate the stress and overwhelm of finding, renovating, building, or maintaining your healthy home—so that you can create a space that truly supports who you are becoming.
Just by tuning in, you’re already stepping into what it means to be an Awakened Homeowner.
Together, we’re building a new way forward—one conscious choice at a time.

Episode 33: What Actually Happens During an EMF Assessment
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this solo episode of Awakening Spaces, Ashley walks you through exactly what a professional EMF assessment looks like from the moment she pulls up to a property to the moment she hands over her findings. She covers why consumer-grade meters miss huge portions of the frequency spectrum, what parallel neutral current is and why it is one of the most common and fixable sources of elevated magnetic fields in homes, how to interpret a nine-point bed map, and why the bedroom is always the highest priority room in any assessment.
Ashley also talks about electro-hypersensitivity, the precautionary principle that guides building biology practice, why there is no longer a control group for EMF health research, and what the process looks like when you are building new versus assessing an existing home.
If you have ever wondered what you are actually getting when you hire someone to assess your home for EMFs, or why professional assessments cost what they do, this episode answers all of it.
