Interview with Ronda

Can you briefly walk us through your story – how you started and how you got to where you are today. You can include as little or as much detail as you’d like.

When my mom passed in 1997, I was already nurturing myself for vibrant health. After losing her, I became even more conscious of my health choices and my desire to empower others to do the same.

In 1998 I started my Happy Healthy Homes business. With a degree already in Interior Design, it was an obvious extension for me to also harmonize the home, thus the body, using Feng Shui principles. After searching out the most effective training I studied with Internationally acclaimed Feng Shui Master Larry Sang in LA, then joining his educational travel in China. My speaking engagements brought a large Feng Shui clientele to me while living on the Monterey Peninsula. I was excited to also work with a high-end furniture corporation and a custom drapery workroom where I had the opportunity to create unique décor, using Feng Shui principles. At the same time, I collaborated with high end clients, including actor Robert Redford in Santa Fe, NM. Currently I am consulting remotely for a large estate in Costa Rica, joining forces with the owner and architect using Classical Feng Shui principles.

In 2007 I opened VIBE ALIVE in Monterey, CA with a Quantum Pulse machine and ION Detox Footbath. I also taught meditation classes, yet in 2009 I chose to return to the Midwest to assist my aging father. I looked toward the Midwest for a community that would be an ideal fit. Within 20 minutes of arriving in Lawrence, I knew I had found my place… Kansas. I realized in Kansas, I’m just like Dorothy, there is no place like home.

In 2010, I became certified as a Quantum Biofeedback Specialist and focused primarily on utilizing this technology. I also tapped my skills as an Interior Designer for Nebraska Furniture Mart from 2013-2018. I was a top interior designer while still offering Quantum Biofeedback sessions.

Biofeedback involves communication and computer work. I consistently update my equipment to include the latest software and hardware. After 15 years of empowering and supporting clients, I still train 4 hours a week to keep up with the latest health issues and solutions. Virtual sessions have become practically as powerful as in-person. Since I live now in Ozawkie, 95% of my biofeedback clients live all over the country.

Has it been a smooth road? If not, what were some of the struggles along the way?

Moving back to the Midwest was a big challenge to my Feng Shui business, so I began teaching Classical 5- Element Feng Shui at JCCC. Classical Feng Shui is a science based on the date a structure was originally built and one of 24 compass directions that a structure is sitting. The exact energy that resides inside is determined by mathematical calculation. Ancient Chinese scholars created a science-based system founded on these mathematical calculations, not spiritual or religious by any means.

It’s challenging to convince some people of the power of Quantum Biofeedback. I believe Albert Einstein was correct when he said: “Future medicine will be the medicine of frequencies”, that is how Quantum Biofeedback works. 

Although I love the Quantum work, I choose to only work with one client a day. This gives me time to reawaken my personal creativity. In 2023 I started painting again after 25 years. I just completed an exhibition at the Lawrence Art in the Park event this year. In the summer of 2025, I had a one woman show at the Theater Lawrence. It focused on my pastel on sandpaper drawings depicting my patriotic “Amer-I-Can” and “Ameri-Can-Can” images. I am also a coop member of the Northland Artist Gallery in Weston MO where my work is rotated all year long.

We’d love to learn more about your work. What do you do, what do you specialize in, what are you known for, etc. What are you most proud of? What sets you apart from others?

What sets me apart from others is my uniqueness as an artist who can extend and transfer creative insights to others in all areas of my life and business. I’m blessed with these gifts and delighted to share them.

Do you have any advice for those who are just starting out? Anything you wish you knew when you were starting out?

Being an independent contractor of relatively unknown healing modalities is not an easy path. Yet this is my life and my work. For those who are just starting out with their life journey, be as patient with others as you must become with yourself.
