    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    In my previous post, on leaving a good marriage and starting again, I mentioned how my old self wouldn’t recognise the person I am today. I am so much more confident than I once was. I used to be nervous about talking to new people, going to events on my own, I’d turn down speaking events for work, avoid certain social situations, sometimes not go out if I could help it.

    How to make a calm home (opens the original)

    Excerpt

    Read excerpt

    One of the questions I get asked the most by interior clients is ‘how can I make my home calmer?’. The stuff of everyday life can easily make a space feel chaotic and overwhelming; the scuffs on the walls, the scattered shoes in the hallway, the stair piles that haven’t found a home yet. When you’re living in a space, it can be hard to know how to step back, look at it from afar and figure out how to bring that feeling of overall harmony and calm. What is calm?
