1 How to Age in Place Safely: Seattle Expert Paul Kocharhook Shares Tips

Seattle homeowners are discovering that aging in place can be both sustainable and stylish. In this episode of Vivatude, host Tracy Cromwell sits down with Paul Kocharhook, president of Pathway Design-Construction, to discuss how thoughtful remodeling can help people stay safely and comfortably in their homes for decades to come. Paul shares his decades of expertise in eco-friendly, energy-efficient design — blending Universal Design principles with Seattle’s green living values to create spaces that truly evolve with their owners. From accessible bathroom remodels and open floor plans to smart lighting upgrades and sustainable materials, Paul explains how aging-in-place remodeling supports both physical safety and emotional wellness. He also opens up about the emotional side of this work — helping families navigate transitions when a spouse or parent becomes a caregiver, and designing homes that ease those challenges with empathy and practicality. Vivatude is more than just a podcast — it’s a wellness movement for women over 40 seeking strength, clarity, and balance in every area of life. Whether you’re planning for your own future, caring for aging parents, or simply passionate about sustainable living, this episode will inspire you to think differently about your home environment or that of someone you're caring for — and how the right design can support your independence, health, and peace of mind. ✨ Connect with Pathway Design 💠Pathway Design + Construction is a residential remodeling company that serves the Greater Seattle Puget Sound region in the state of Washington.
