If you’re ready for more freedom, purpose and possibility in your life, you’re in the right place.

Maybe life is good, but you know it could fit you better. Maybe you’re considering a second act, trying to take better care of yourself or wondering how to create income by design so work stops running the whole show. Perhaps you just want to make more room for joy and playfulness!

I’m Kimberly Henrie. I’ve spent most of my life behind a microphone and I’m also a wellness educator, entrepreneur and full-time RVer. I don’t believe there’s one right way to live a good life. In fact, some of the best lives begin when we stop following the expected route.

On Living the Good Life, I talk with people who have made intentional choices about purpose, wellness, creativity, adventure, entrepreneurship and freedom. We talk about what changed, what was hard, what surprised them and what they’ve learned along the way.

My hope is that every episode gives you one idea worth carrying with you. Maybe it helps you see a new possibility. Maybe it gives you the nudge to make your own next move toward a life—and an income—that works for you.2025

    .

  • 2618 Does Your Home Help You Thrive or Hold You Back? with Kim Costa
    Aug 26 2026
    How do you feel when you walk into your home each day? Is it possible that you could create a haven that supports your personality, dreams and goals vs creating feelings of overwhelm, drain and responsibility?

    Maybe your home once fit your life and no longer does. Maybe it never really worked for you in the first place. Either way, you may find yourself wondering: Is it time to stay, go or renovate?

    In this episode of Living the Good Life, I’m talking with Kim Costa, a REALTOR®, author, speaker, podcast host and creator of Lifestyle Foundations and the Wheel House Assessment. With more than 30 years of experience in residential construction, design and real estate, Kim helps people look beyond bedrooms, budgets and square footage to consider a bigger question: Does your home—and the environment around it—help you thrive, or quietly hold you back?

    Kim explains how our surroundings can affect everything from our health, relationships and work to the ways we rest, create and connect. She also shares how her own home supported her through a major season of reinvention—and the wonderfully serendipitous story of eventually living in the kind of cottage she had imagined years earlier.

    We talk about:
    • Recognizing the everyday friction your environment may be creating
    • Why “familiar” doesn’t necessarily mean “right”
    • Looking at your needs before deciding whether to stay, move or renovate
    • Creating space for the parts of yourself that need to refuel
    • Kim’s simple “front door feeling” exercise
    • Making one meaningful change instead of trying to fix everything at once
    You don’t have to be buying, selling or remodeling a home to get something from this conversation. Sometimes the first step is simply noticing how your surroundings make you feel—and asking what might help life work a little better.

    Kim is the author of Live in Your Wheel House: An Empowering Guide to Stay, Go, or Reno.

  • 2617 Sixteen Conversations, Three Questions
    Aug 5 2026
    What does living the good life actually require?

    After sixteen conversations with seventeen guests, Kimberly Henrie steps behind the microphone alone to revisit the ideas that kept surfacing—whether the conversation began with RV travel, wellness, entrepreneurship, creativity, identity or community.

    The first lesson is to choose it. Patrick Smith, Sarah Jones and Greg Gunter showed how freedom can be designed through travel, work and place. Meghan DeFord, Jeffrey Eisen, Mia Dins and Mari Wuellner took the question inward: Are we living a life that fits, or performing the version of success we inherited?

    The second lesson is to build it. Brett Jensen, Kelly Freeman, Dane Mulligan, Patty Scallan, Veronica Munoz and Andrea Maxim each demonstrated that reinvention rarely comes with a complete blueprint. It grows through experiments, pauses, unexpected opportunities and small actions taken before certainty arrives.

    The third lesson is to share it. Jennifer Schillaci, Lynn Harris, Sebastien Samuel and Georgette Beck reminded us that freedom without connection can become lonely. The good life becomes richer through friendship, creativity, encouragement, service and contribution.

    In this solo recap, Kimberly offers three questions:
    • Am I building the life I genuinely want—or performing the one I was handed?
    • What small, imperfect move could I make before I feel completely ready?
    • Who could I reach toward, encourage or contribute to from the life I am building?
    The good life is not one destination, lifestyle or final achievement. It is something we choose, build and share.
