Ever catch yourself staring at your walls, feeling a bit… meh? Like your home has lost its spark, but you’re not quite sure why?

That creeping sense of boredom doesn’t mean you need to start knocking down walls or scrolling Rightmove.
Sometimes, all it takes is a few small shifts to completely change how your home feels.

In this episode, I’m sharing six simple but impactful ways to fall back in love with your space.
We’ll talk about the magic of shopping your own home (yes, rearranging your stuff can work wonders), the subtle power of swapping out things like cabinet handles and light fittings, and why a fresh furniture layout can make a room feel brand new. I’ll also dive into the importance of weaving in pieces that mean something—travel mementos, artwork, textiles—those little touches that bring warmth and personality back into your space.

Inspired by Nigel Slater’s insights on how fragrance shapes memory and emotion, I also chat about how the small things, like filling your home with scent, can make a big difference.

This episode is about rediscovering the joy in your home, with a few small shifts.
What’s one easy change you could make today to fall back in love with your space?
