I moved to Calabasas proper. I moved to a townhouse in a gated community. It&#8217;s really close to my kid\u2019s school and my office with The Agency, Calabasas.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">I&#8217;m in a two-[bedroom], 2.5-[bathroom] and it&#8217;s about 1,450 [square feet]. I have a cute two-car [garage]. It\u2019s cute. It\u2019s great. It&#8217;s lovely. It&#8217;s very different. It feels like a steppingstone for this new chapter. And to be very personal and open, it was a choice that was kind of like when you break up with a boyfriend and your first date is like the polar opposite. It&#8217;s a Spanish white aesthetic [with] really high ceilings.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">I love the idea of moving because you do get into the habit of purging anything that shouldn&#8217;t be in your life. I love the idea of starting anew because when you have a new space, you do have to pick up every single thing that you own and decide if it&#8217;s coming with you.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">I was really decisive and specific about what I was gonna bring from my old house to the new house. If I picked up an object, it was really important that it wanted to come with me and should come with me. It had to be the same color palette of creamy whites, a lot of different textures and shades of off-whites. Not whites, though. Earth tones.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">It&#8217;s important every little thing, I strongly believe, if it doesn&#8217;t serve you, you just get in the habit of donating, or just get it out of your space.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">I&#8217;m really, really sentimental about keeping [specific belongings]. There are certain things from each house that I live in, I will hang right on my nightstand. Things that Shams made or the same photos. Certain things that travel together and it&#8217;s like that piece of home.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">A lot of my rooms always feel the same no matter where I live because it&#8217;s always creamy earth tones. Really, really light neutral tones.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">When you look at a beachscape, it&#8217;s always white sand, sky. That&#8217;s what I want to capture when I&#8217;m in my living space. It&#8217;s the opposite of masculine energy with the dark tones and the cigar rooms.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">My bed and my sofa [are my sanctuaries]. I love my Crate &amp; Barrel, 10-foot long [sofa]. It&#8217;s a [similar] texture of boucl\u00e9. It just makes me feel like I&#8217;m home. Wherever I go, the energy is so good that I take a piece of my heart, so it&#8217;s like I still know where I am.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">One of the most important things for my house is that people can spill and have fun in it and not worry. A house has to be cozy and it has to be comfortable for everyone there.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">For example, this one time I [visited] my girlfriend who had just newly gotten married. She was so proud of herself and she was so proud of her Restoration Hardware sofa that she would literally wipe under people&#8217;s drinks while they were taking a bite of a crumpet and it was so off-putting to me that somebody would be so rude.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">I was like, \u201cWhere&#8217;s your etiquette? Where&#8217;s your hospitality? This is not how you entertain and invite people into your home to make them feel uncomfortable.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">So, my first priority with all interiors is that it&#8217;s going to be the creamy Tulum vibes. It&#8217;s always the light-colored furniture and I will buy a rug that I can afford to replace twice a year because I know that I want people to live. I want people to come over and take a load off. My kid can have a spill, play with his trucks. My dog can scratch. <\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">Also, my mom and my husband, we&#8217;re all very rough around the edges so when somebody comes over, I just want to make sure that I&#8217;m hosting a comfortable space more than I want the house to feel like someone&#8217;s entering a museum.<\/p>\n<div class=\"Boxstyles__StyledBox-rui__sc-1p1qqov-0 cGIhfE sc-1d9c28t-0 dVWipe\">\n<figure><figcaption class=\"sc-1d9c28t-3 kUNXdc\"><span class=\"image-caption\">With her return to reality TV, Javid made sure the spotlight was on her journey as a working mom who\u2019s building her business at the global boutique real estate brokerage The Agency.<\/span><span class=\"sc-1d9c28t-2 nMMWW image-credit\">Bravo<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"Boxstyles__StyledBox-rui__sc-1p1qqov-0 cGIhfE sc-1d9c28t-0 dVWipe\">\n<figure><figcaption class=\"sc-1d9c28t-3 kUNXdc\"><span class=\"image-caption\">Because she works around the clock in real estate, Javid sets &#8220;a conscious boundary between professional and personal&#8221; time when she gets home.<\/span><span class=\"sc-1d9c28t-2 nMMWW image-credit\">Bravo<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"Boxstyles__StyledBox-rui__sc-1p1qqov-0 cGIhfE sc-1d9c28t-0 dVWipe\">\n<figure><figcaption class=\"sc-1d9c28t-3 kUNXdc\"><span class=\"image-caption\">As this new chapter begins, Javid admits feeling &#8220;brave in making the changes to start anew and set new goals.&#8221;<\/span><span class=\"sc-1d9c28t-2 nMMWW image-credit\">Casey Durkin\/Bravo<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">Sanctuary to me would be a place where the outside world is quiet and I can be fully relaxed. I can feel calm and safe, where laughter is the best medicine. I only want to hear my son and I laughing. We&#8217;re allowed to clunk around and be comfortable and we can just recharge.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">To me, sanctuary is where I can shut off everything that is outside of the walls of my home. It has to be peaceful, calm. It has to be light, which is, a lot of natural light. There has to be living plants. I am more of a plant person than [a] cut flowers person because those are still living and flowers are dead basically because you cut them.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">I consulted a feng shui expert to help me calibrate the direction of the sun and the direction of [my] bed. A lot of those things I believe in spiritually.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">When you work in real estate, in a way you have to be on call at all hours. You definitely don\u2019t get weekends off.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">As a mother, I don\u2019t want to miss pickup or drop-off for my kid. I want to be there at practice. I want to be there for the games, so I\u2019m really just determined to do everything to the best of my ability. I don\u2019t want anyone to feel like they\u2019re getting cheated.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">Dedicated is what I feel all the time. I feel so much passion about quality of life. That includes the way that I show up for my clients, and it\u2019s the same way that I want to make sure I show up for my son. It\u2019s like you want to make sure that every interaction is meaningful because we\u2019re so busy, but the last thing that we want to do is seem too busy for somebody in our lives.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">It\u2019s a boundary. When I get home from work, when I get home from the day, it&#8217;s a conscious boundary between professional and personal and it&#8217;s important to be present.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">When you do work so hard and you do everything for a client, there has to be a time when you stop and make sure your phone\u2019s away and your eyes are on your baby. They notice. They know the difference. When you have such a demanding career, home truly has to signal that family comes first. That separation is perfect for me because then he knows he&#8217;s got me.<\/p>\n<p class=\"base__StyledType-rui__sc-18muj27-0 IEPPf sc-7dicpk-0 ccZqsH core-paragraph\">Right now I am resetting.
