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

Description

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.

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.

Episode 4: The Emotional Side of Our Homes

Disclaimer: there may be a little bit of swearing in this episode… because feelings were felt. This episode goes a little deeper. Join content creators Vicky from @houseoflittlewomen and Sophie from @sophie_pricey as they unpack the emotional side of our homes, because our spaces aren’t just about how things look, they’re about how we feel. In Episode 4, we’re exploring the emotional connection we have to our homes and why they often reflect what’s going on beneath the surface. We talk about the sense of control that decorating can give us, especially during uncertain or overwhelming times, and why even the smallest changes can feel grounding. We dive into the nesting instinct, not just in pregnancy, but during life shifts, fresh starts, and moments where we’re craving comfort, stability, or a reset. This episode is about tuning into that instinct, and understanding that creating a home isn’t just about design, it’s about emotion, identity, and where we are in life.
