Something that Drew does that I like, and wish you would do since I love your style, is to take some of your fan’s pictures of their difficult rooms and offer suggestions how you would style or decorate the space.

[@jeaninegimlin7746]

As A Mom. Don’t over fill your schedule. In the second half of the year. You wont be able to keep up. Enjoy being a Mom you have waited so long for this. Let go of some things. Give yourself grace in the next few months Your life is going to change So much you don’t Even Know. love to you all

[@Holly_at_gypsyhollergardens]

Much the same as I was going to say , on the podcast question . Wait a few years for anything new . The years fly by , and you will see some things must be set down for awhile and the podcast is an easy pick , it just wasn't your thing for this season of life , just be Mommy for now 💙.

[@Kaytreenz]

Yeah I love her content, but as a new mom to a 8 month old, reality hits hard when the little being makes it earthside. But already the time is FLYING.

[@magwed4120]

Sleep most definitely is going to be an issue in the beginning but this is her identity also. I don't think she'll take on much when he's born, but she should just do a visual podcast best. I would say do the business I've always been curious to hear what she has to say about that but I I think she could incorporate the last 5 minutes of the podcast to addressing design ideas of pictures of our living spaces❤ also you should get a few started before the baby's born to get you through a few weeks of content❤️ you know what just talk to us we have plenty to say 🤣 🤯 YOU COULD JUST DO LIVE VIDEO PODCAST 🤯

[@Minor-Cutie]

As much as I love her, I think being a mom is going to be a really big wake-up call. She loves going to her fancy lil LA sit down restaurants, multiple trips to Lowes a day, jumping on a plane whenever she wants....That doesn't happen when you're a mom, especially a new one. If you read this MaCenna, please take care of your postpartum mental health and take it slow. I know it's going to be hard for someone like you to not do "all the things" all the time, but your priorities are going to shift and it's okay. We'll be here when you adjust, just enjoy your baby ❤

[@heidil.4651]

I would NEVER miss an episode of your podcast if you did design dilemmas!!! I’d LIVE for it!

[@SamMEtravels]

Hi there! Prefer watching podcasts. Pod video ideas: 1.) Romeo's reselling business. How he got started, the evolution, how he's grown as a seller. 2.) design dilemmas, maybe grouped by room? 3.) top tools you've loved, worth the money. Also, tools not worth the money 4.) anything with your mom 5.)interview a contractor(maybe if you gain a good relationship with your kitchen contractor) ask them the biggest fixes they've had to do for diy homeowners. 6.) viewer write ins on the biggest diy mistakes that were costly or time consuming fixes.7.) topics like renovation timeline 8.) later balancing a baby and diy

[@AmandaATXo.o]

[going to add my ideas as a reply to yours so it won't disappear into the void] 9) how to improve the light in a space without busting thru the wall or ceiling 10) many people approach some things in a house as unchangeable (roof, walls, etc) what are the steps needed to take to put a window where there wasn't one? I doubt you just phone up a contractor and be all 'please put a window in my brick wall, or a skylight in my roof'

[@olivias4895]

love all of these! wanted to add: - fans submitting DIYs they did inspired by your content either just to show it off or to ask for help/tip to complete it if they're at a road block - budgeting for projects (how to know a good bid vs someone ripping you off) or how to find good contractors/subs!

I have a design dilemma, have a wall in my bedroom with a vaulted ceiling no window and just can’t figure out what to do with it to make it look warm besides putting a picture on it? It needs something?

[@Lucinda_Jackson]

@@deborahlehman8617 How about a large (tall) cathedral top mirror? It would help fill the space without being as visually "solid" as a piece of art. That would let you have something you feel is large enough for the space, too, which might be difficult with art. And there's the benefit of the light it reflects since you feel the loss of a window.

I agree with the idea of donating to a charity in honor of the new baby. There are so many children’s charities out there. Eg. Operation smile. The little I know about MaCenna and Romeo, from her channel, I think they would love that idea. Plus, MaCenna has very specific tastes and doesn’t have a lot of storage space.

[@kerrilee1943]

For the podcast; love the idea of Macenna solving design dilemmas. Side note Aldax Silicone Putty is a great moulding medium for creating casts to repair old frames. I use it for the cast, air dry clay for the mould, paint and rub n buff to paint 👍 you’re so clever you’d have no troubles fixing your frame. Not sure about the chemicals in the putty while your pregnant tho

With My Two Hands sounds like not just about DIY's and experiences. There's a plethora of topics you could cover to include: -Your entrepreneurship experience -Best editing software you use, camera for car and moving about -Understanding your own personal style(s). You did a show discussing the different styles like MCM, French Country, English Cottage, Industrial, Modern Country, Modern, Transitional, Scandinavian , Art Deco etc., when you lived in the apartment (regarding art decor). I've visited so many people's homes and its a hodge-podge of styles, with no clear direction or how to even elevate or identify what they want their home to look and feel. Home is our safe haven, our space of peace, calm, joy and our mental break from the world's chaos. You have a real eye for design for complimenting colors for your walls and trim, art & home décor. We need your help and expertise talking about those really simple things. The platform is yours! I'm interested in Romeo's T-shirt business too!

Hi Macenna! It’s amazing you are continuing to work, and it’s obvious you have lots of energy and ideas in your constantly moving brain. I can tell! 😃 Here comes the unsolicited advice: It sounds to me like you and Romeo want to have more than one child. I just want to mention something I realized after second and third child came along for me. Please allow yourself to cherish and enjoy (relish really) that sweet, alone time with that first baby. It is so special! And when subsequent babies come along, that time is over. Only to say, the time with your first little boy will be so special-allow yourself that luxury. ~Cathy

Personally I like when I can watch podcasts in addition to listening. I can’t wait to see the nursery reveal on Sunday! I appreciate that you are discerning about what you buy for your home and that you don’t just buy things for the sake of buying. I enjoy thrift and flea market videos where you show what is there whether you buy the treasures or not.

[@lisadiamondstein4256]

I like to “watch” podcasts when I can. I love the content when it’s focused on empowerment of women. Whether as a mom to be, mom to a fur baby, corporate executive or content creator, retiree or stay at home mom, I think women need to lift each other up and support one another. I loved when you spoke of your two year plan to exit corporate life and how you achieved it. I watched you build a shack into a home, piece by piece, I watched you create and market Auden Lueur and I watched you purchase your dream house in California. I watched your pregnancy journey unfold and your honesty about how long conception took. I’ve been with you since the beginning of videos and the one common thread is empowerment and never saying no - or knowing your limitations. And it’s that empowerment which keeps me tuning into hear both you and your mom talk about the struggles of women in a man dominated field. For what it’s worth, I’m a retired 65yr old baby boomer who raised kids, stayed home to raise them, went back to work and started my own company before retiring to help care for my grand babies. Thank you for sharing those stories with us.

[@sassypuppyco9963]

Have you considered getting some air dry clay and a few rubber, or resin, moulds to make new trim for the picture frame that needs repair? Then you can glue the clay onto the parts that need to be repaired. You could also attempt to make your own mould directly from the frame, by using an area that is not damaged.

[@bonniesmith1179]

I love both of your channel's MaCenna very much, and I love all that you've done. While my home is not as formal as yours anymore, I truly love all that you've done. I absolutely love vintage and antique pieces, particularly the more rustic ones, and incorporate them in a more farmhouse/cottege design (or I'm trying to that is!). In response to your question about a podcast I definitely prefer one in video format because I am very much a visual learner. There are several things I'd love to see you address in these video podcasts are: how to best design a room, as well as how to address design issues; how to actually decide on the best paint colors for a room in the house,, as well as when you could paint a ceiling and/or the baseboards in a color other than white or cream; and finally, you have often shown projects where you have either made things and/or redone something, but I'd like to see. you explain exactly how to do them. You do amazing work and your confidence is inspiring.

[@KatiesLifeAdventure]

If you’re going to do design dilemmas you could have people fill out a Google form on your website to submit them with answering basic questions. The “What do you like?” “What do you want to change?” “What budget level can you invest?” “What style are you interested in?”. Then the questions can help you pull episodes based on budget/ style/ challenge… Can’t wait to see how it evolves! Just don’t over do it motherhood can feel like climbing a mountain in the dark without any help. Lean on your people ask for help and be willing to set things aside to not feel overwhelmed.

Coming from a new mom of a 4 month old and just buying a house and moving a week before she was due, I was like you with all these plans and visions for our home. However, since she’s been here it’s been hard to just keep up with things I enjoy. Granted my husband and I do work full time outside of the home, but on my days off it’s 100% attention on the little one wether I wanted to do something that day or not. You do get used to doing stuff while they’re awake and they will get to a point where they entertain themselves better, but you still have to stop in the middle of things to go take care of them. So just give yourself grace to not get it all done because that will happen. And rest! I know you hear that a lot and I did too, but I didn’t actually understand the need until I was just burnt out and exhausted, even now at 4 months. Just learn motherhood and do stuff a little at a time. I thought I would still be able to get everything done/decorated how I wanted while having a newborn but that was definitely not the case and we are blessed with a healthy baby so that isn’t even the issue.

Hi Macenna! I really enjoyed when you did price breakdowns on your podcasts, and dissected what was worth DIYing and contracting out - that info reaaally has helped me out. I also think design dilemmas would be so much fun, I would definitely write in! Maybe you also can include a segment where you talk about what design elements you can have in your home if you’re trying to achieve a certain aesthetic. For example, if someone loves cottage core but they’re having trouble knowing how to incorporate that in their home, you would educate us on buying specific things, like wood, lace, knit blankets, etc.

I personally prefer more how-tos/tips and tricks/educational content. Especially when it comes to interior design and how to get started with it. Scrolling through your current podcasts, I skipped a lot of them as they didn’t seem to really fall into the above categories, so would definitely love to see a little more of that. I think it would also be fun to comment on our spaces and give suggestions.

I love a good podcast. Keep them to 30 minutes and I watch them. Yes design issues are fun and helpful. Plus your mental process of how you think through the design process. And how you create mood boards and why you put things together.

[@landrasiegfried170]

Yes to design dilemmas and mood boards to show ideas/process.

[@lorimcaleavy9910]

Love the idea of a platform where you could help us with our own design issues! I always watched your podcasts- I liked the visual.

Hi MaCenna! When is part 2 of the nursery makeover coming out? 🥹

[@roscaines-prentice3888]

On Sunday.

I like the idea of design dilema for a topic. I much prefer videos to podcasts, but find in the car or doing dishes they are welcome. You look beautiful, so glad you feel good!

I want that castle painting u picked up😮😭😭😭😭

[@themainer1267]

Love the easel. Could your Mum do an unfinished piece to place on it and then work on it a little each time she visits. It could be a reminder of each visit thus marking time and be visually symbolic of one of the many reasons you're waiting for her return. Begun at the beginning of this monumental chapter of your lives and meant to never be finished. Like love, never ending.

[@gemmapetersen4027]

That's a sweet idea! I stopped oil painting when I found out I was expecting bc of all the harsh chemicals used to clean the brushes but hope to get back into it after baby arrives!😊 Maybe during his nap times... I like the idea of the slow progress and the memories attached. 😊

Clicked super quick. Love your videos ✨❤️

[@victoriamartinotti7364]

Answering the design dilemmas would be the most fun!

[@bethjackson6358]

Video podcast please…

[@kristinking3725]

23:42 I just want to see you sell tiny framed art. A collab with your mom's paintings and mini frames designed by Macenna would be everything.

[@the_Fat_Catz_Farm]

I may be wrong, but most art on an easel is not framed...

For me, podcasts are my daily dose of inspiration and positivity during walks and commutes. I seek out content that uplifts and motivates, boosting my serotonin levels and setting the tone for the day/afternoon ahead. Your perspective on challenging topics has been of comfort, teaching me valuable lessons and showing me how to overcome obstacles. For example, as a first time homebuyer, I constantly think back to your point that a "house is a living, breathing thing that needs constant attention". I was struggling hard with home issues and that help me feel not so alone and helped me change perspective. I think sharing some more of those challenges and lessons would be amazing! Thank you for sharing your wisdom and light with the world!

I pretty much only listen to podcast when I'm driving and they are almost exclusively true crime or music related. I think your podcasts, although very well done were pretty much covered by your video content so it wasn't as intriguing to me.

[@Nicole_Riviere]

For the podcast: I would like two things: 1) conversations or interviews with other people in the field and 2) if someone wanted to build a similar platform/business as yours: how to. Exiting times! But: as a new mom you will have little time and please don’t stress yourself out! Especially in the beginning ❤️
