Today’s guest is stylist, curator and shop owner Carlie Oates. She says our homes are our cafes, our restaurants and our nightclubs - this is true for everyone right now during coronavirus times, but is also always true of people living in the country, away from the cities.

Carlie moved with her husband from Sydney to a farm at Jugiong on the NSW central tablelands. Her husband had no farming experience and is now a farmer and Carlie – makes masterpieces of people’s homes through her interior design company and homewares store Curators Collective.

Carlie is lovely and insightful and has adapted her business to cope with COVID 19 lockdown and whatsmore she’s having a wonderful time creating new family rituals and cooking up a storm in her kitchen whilst the world goes through a revolution of sorts.

You can find Carlie here on instagram and you can get a good dose of retail therapy at her website curatorscollective.com.au
