Home Girls Podcast with Emily from @FurnishingFutures charity

In this episode, we’re joined by Emily, founder of @furnishingfutures, a charity creating beautifully designed, trauma-informed homes for women and children escaping domestic abuse. We talk about the reality of furniture poverty and what it means to start again with nothing, and how Emily has combined her background in social work and interiors to create spaces that offer safety, dignity and a true sense of home. This is a powerful conversation about purpose, design with meaning, and the life-changing impact of a thoughtfully created space.

Episode 7: Home Girls Podcast with Aimée @thehouseofwaffle

This week marks a special one for Home Girls - our first ever guest episode! We sat down with Aimée from @thehouseofwaffle to talk about the reality behind renovating, creating a home, and everything that comes with it that Instagram doesn’t always show. From buying a property that needed everything, to taking on a full HMO conversion, this is an honest conversation about vision, pressure, identity and the emotional side of building a home. We talk about what it really feels like when you’re in the middle of it, when the vision isn’t always clear, when things don’t go to plan, and when creating a beautiful home comes with a weight that no one prepares you for. This episode is for anyone in the middle of a renovation, dreaming about one, or simply trying to create a home while navigating real life alongside it. Honest, relatable and reassuring, you’re not the only one figuring it out as you go.

Home Girls Episode 6 - 🎙️ Have We All Lost Ourselves A Bit?

🎙️ Have We All Lost Ourselves A Bit? I don’t know if it’s age, motherhood, social media or just modern life…but lately it feels like so many of us have lost touch with who we are. In this episode, we go beyond interiors and talk about identity, burnout, comparison culture, and the quiet pressure to constantly evolve. From consuming instead of living, to homes becoming content, to the exhaustion so many women are carrying, this is an honest conversation about why we feel disconnected…and how we start finding ourselves again.

Episode 5: Designing for Real Life: Kids, Mess & the Cream Sofa Debate

Real homes aren’t spotless… they’re lived in. This episode is all about designing a home that actually works...kids, chaos, tight budgets and all. From the cream sofa debate (brave or stupid?) to smart storage that still looks good, we’re getting honest about creating spaces that balance style with real life. We chat through where to spend vs save, how to make your home feel pulled together without chasing perfection, and why the goal isn’t a show home it’s a home that works for you. Expect real talk, practical tips, and permission to let go of the Pinterest pressure.
