Kartar Diamond
When Kartar Diamond happened upon a Feng
Shui book 10 years ago, she couldn't help but be intrigued by
the concept of harnessing Chi, the positive life force, in order to
maximize the health benefits of living and working spaces. Under
the direction of Feng Shui authority Master Larry Sang, Diamond
completed her studies before launching her consulting practice,
Feng Shui Solutions.
What Diamond found, though, was that consumers weren't
necessarily as informed as she was. One of her biggest challenges
is educating the public about what exactly Feng Shui is. Says
Diamond, "There's a tremendous amount of misinformation
about it."

And after she gets the clients, getting to them is
another challenge. While she is located in Los Angeles, she often
visits the homes and offices of her clients all over Southern
California. "What I came to realize [in my first year] was
that one of my biggest unexpected expenses was car maintenance and
travel," says Diamond.
Diamond, who also teaches Feng Shui classes at the American Feng
Shui Institute in Los Angeles, cautions anyone who is interested in
practicing Feng Shui to get adequate training. "People get so
excited about Feng Shui, they want to do it after they've read
a book or two. Or after they've taken only six months of
classes," she says. "And you can end up damaging your
reputation and causing harm to people if you don't know what
you're doing."
Working with an average of seven to 10 clients per week and
grossing a six-figure income, Diamond knows what she's doing:
harnessing positive energy in her life and business.
