from Profit Is A Choice · host Michele Williams

300: Upcycling with Purpose: How Sustainable Design Brings Peace to Your Space Joining us on the podcast today is Sarah Trop, owner of Fun Cycled in upstate New York. By day, Sarah transforms spaces and furniture through thoughtful, sustainable design, and by night, she shares her creative life as a lifestyle blogger—she's truly fun to follow and watch. In this episode, we're talking about upcycling—what Sarah lovingly calls Fun Cycling—and how intentional, sustainable design can bring a sense of peace into the spaces we live and work in. We'll also explore what it means to be good stewards of what we've been entrusted with, especially throughout the design process. This conversation is creative, meaningful, and uplifting—and I know you're going to enjoy it. Topics Mentioned: Repurposing Well-being Balancing home and health Key Thoughts:  There is value in merging old and new items in design. It is important to balance home-making with hospitality and stewardship. Design can promote emotional and physical well-being. New challenges keep us learning.
