00:00Hi, I'm Angela Rockwood. Welcome to my sweet digs. I like to call it my goddess
00:04sanctuary. I live in the Los Angeles area. We call it Miracle Mile. I live in a
00:102200 square foot home. It's four bedroom, three bath, and I have a guest house and
00:15I love it. In my neighborhood the homes go for about 1.3 to 3 million dollars
00:21and when I first moved into this place it was about $525,000 and because I'm a
00:27discount diva I got it down to about $485,000 and it's worth a lot more now.
00:32Believe it or not when I first came into this house I actually walked into this
00:36house. It was 18 years ago and a month and a half later I got into a horrific car
00:40accident and that's what placed me into the wheelchair. I live with my honey, my
00:44roommate Raisa, my warrior brother Lucas, and my dear friend Daniel. This is my
00:51dining room. The favorite part about my kitchen is the breakfast nook because
00:56that's where all the action happens. We do the parties, we do the chatting, all my
01:01friends hang out there. It's like the heart of the house. So I have this Balinese
01:05table in my breakfast nook and because I'm a discount diva there used to be a
01:10store in LA called Eastern Cowboy and you can get all the Balinese furniture
01:14there for dirt cheap and I think it was like $150 with all the chairs. I love to cook.
01:20That's one thing that I miss. I used to cook all the time so my next thing is to try
01:25to
01:26get the kitchen to be accessible where the stove can go up and down and then I
01:30could be able to cook for my friends and my honey. I have this wooden statue in my
01:34dine room and basically it's the goddess Kuang Ying and I actually purchased it in
01:40Thailand like 21 years ago. It reminds me of myself because she's paralyzed in the
01:47wood but yet she has the many arms so she could do everything and she represents
01:51love and compassion. If you really look at it when you stand back it's crooked so
01:56it's imperfect which I love imperfection. My household pet peeve you can ask my
02:02honey. Toilet seats down! The other thing is closets. All the closets have to be
02:08closed because again feng shui I'm like Nicole Kidman in the others. And this is my
02:14bedroom. This is where the goddess sleeps. My bedroom is actually a work in progress so
02:21I'm gonna have an artist friend that comes in. He's gonna paint all of the
02:24walls like I'm out in a forest and another friend's gonna build this tree
02:28like a cherry blossom tree. Going over the bed and then I have all these
02:32butterflies and things that will be like dangling so you'll feel like you're
02:36sleeping outside in a forest. My favorite part of my bedroom is my goddess bed.
02:41The queen bed. Before I had my high bed I had a huge beyond California king bed that
02:48actually came all the way out but it was extremely low and all my caretakers were
02:54hurting their backs. And then I switched for this queen-size queen bed. I have three
02:59bathrooms in my house and one of the first bathrooms that's in the front is
03:03one of my favorite. And then there's this bathroom that I'm sitting in. Behind the
03:07door is a mermaid painting that I did with my BFF before he passed away and
03:12it's of a mermaid because they say that mermaids can't walk but they're still
03:16magical. And of course there's my master bathroom which is in my room where I do
03:21all the magic of my makeup. Believe it or not I wear makeup every day. It's
03:26actually very healing for me because I lost my dexterity and my fingers from
03:31the paralysis. Makeup is my way of painting again and I just enjoy the
03:36moment and I do it every single day. This is my office. This is where the magic
03:42happens. My office space is very important to me because this is where I
03:47spend a lot of my time. Behind me I have my vision board so I'm all about the law
03:52of attraction. Bringing forth what you believe and dream of into reality and so
03:58that is pretty much who I am. That is how I live my life. What do I not do for
04:03a
04:03living? I do everything. I'm a model, an actress, a TV producer, a TV host for World
04:09Poker Tour. I'm a life coach, a motivational speaker, I'm a board member for Global
04:15Mobility and I'm an ambassador for the Christopher and Dana Reeve Foundation and
04:19I'm just an overall rolling goddess. When I moved into this house all the walls
04:24were white and I do not like white walls. I was blessed enough to meet this
04:28wonderful artist and he helped me paint the house very much like an old castle. I
04:34used to have a chandelier that used to come down and the curtains that you see I
04:39picked like the royal velvety curtains because it kind of resembles like
04:42Renaissance and it's just it's a special room and it just has good energy. I love
04:48it. I have a little puppy dog. He's four years old and his name is Kenzo and I call
04:53him Baby Bear. We're very similar. I didn't know that I picked the disabled dog. He
04:57obviously picked me. He's hypoglycemic and he has seizures so we're exactly the
05:02same where we have to eat every four hours. My ultimate splurge when I bought the
05:06house was the fountain. I remember going into the store and looking at this
05:10fountain and I remember bargaining with the owner and saying uh-uh you better
05:14knock like a thousand or two thousand off of it and so now it is sitting on my
05:19porch that I get to enjoy every Sundays with my little baby bear when I get my
05:24zen on. The water trinkles and it just takes me away and it's so important
05:28because in the hustle bustle and in my lifestyle I need that moment to just zen.
05:34When I moved into my house I purposely planned a housewarming party so I had to
05:40get this house together within a month and a half. So the first week painted all
05:45the walls. Second week unboxed everything. Third week found the curtains basically the
05:50sheets you throw on the windows and then the fourth week you just get
05:53everything together make it look like it's livable and then of course I had the
05:57party and then I had my accident. 18 years ago I was in a distracted driving
06:02incident that paralyzed me from the neck down and the doctor said I had three to
06:06five percent chance of moving or feeling anything. The major changes that happened
06:11to this house after my accident number one is in the front. My ex actually knocked
06:17the wall down and he matched the tiles and created a ramp to go all the way down
06:22and into the driveway. In the living room there's just a little lip that goes up
06:26into the dining room I just threw down a metal ramp. A lot of my therapists that
06:30came in here during my injury in the beginning they came in there like and you
06:35like bought this house as if you knew you're gonna be in a wheelchair because
06:40all the doors are extremely wide I didn't have to change anything. In my
06:44bathroom I just ripped out the cabinet so I can roll underneath to get under the
06:48sink and the shower I just built a little like ramp just so I can go into the
06:53shower and then that's it. It's now this year 2019 that I'm finally putting my
07:00house together the way that I want to. I'm truly ecstatic about just decorating my
07:06house the way I want to and putting my love my energy the essence and everything
07:12that I've been wanting to do for a very very long time. I am a positive freak so I
07:17have to surround myself with positive energy all the time. I'm very particular
07:20about the people that I invite to my house who stays the night who lives in
07:24my house I only pick people that I trust and that are like family energy and so
07:30when people come here they always say like wow your house like feels really good. I
07:35just think it's very important because we're all frequency we're energy and it's
07:39important to have your haven on a good frequency high vibe.
