 The addiction they don’t talk about - Interior Doom Scrolling!

I know, I know, it’s all very nice and ‘inspirational’ to spend hours drooling over other people’s homes on Pinterest and Instagram, trying to imagine what your home renovation could one day become.
I’ve been there… you look up your from your phone and an hour and a half has passed…  I mean, who knew drug dealer Jesse Pinkman from Breaking Bad would grow up to have SUCH good taste!? 

But here's the truth: too many options, and too much inspiration can stall your renovation progress. In this episode I’ll chat about how overwhelm and design fatigue can creep in when faced with a sea of endless Pinterest images. The dreaded paralysis by analysis, where overthinking every choice can grind your project to a halt. 
And too many options can cause overwhelm, resulting in inconsistency and making it  difficult to communicate your design vision with your team.

Tune in and stay to the end for The Fix;  practical advice on narrowing your focus to a few key inspirations and empowering you to make confident decisions and move forward seamlessly with your home reno project
