This week, I’m unpacking why that ‘dream home’ narrative we've all been sold might actually be wrecking your nervous system. Between rising living costs, the upcoming UK budget, and Rachel Reeves throwing shade on big property perks, now’s the time to rethink the “more is better” mindset.

I'm sharing my own experience of decluttering and selling my four-bed family home, moving in with my mum, and buying a small home as a single mum—and why, against all expectations, I’m genuinely buzzing about it.

We’ve been taught to believe that growing up means levelling up into bigger houses, more rooms, more stuff. But bigger doesn’t always mean better. And that pressure? It’s costing you time, peace, and let’s be honest—probably a whole Saturday morning in the garden you didn’t want.

Plus, I’m spilling the real tea on how you could save thousands by investing in proper storage and systems, rather than an extension or a move. Your square footage isn’t the problem—your clutter is.
