This is more than a design problem; it's identity on mute. Kadija Taylor is a holistic interior designer with roots in Sierra Leone and Liberia, and the founder of Home and Sanctuary. Her philosophy is simple: if someone walks into your home and can't tell you live there, something's wrong. In this episode, Kadija and Elleyne explore  why culturally fluid people erase themselves from their own spaces, how your design choices at home change how you show up in the world, and why chasing trends is the fastest way to lose yourself in your own house.
