How much of your life is being shaped by the spaces you’re in… and the people you’re around?

In this episode of Untangling Life, we get into the real impact of environment and community - from messy rooms and what's in your backpack (yes, we went there) to the bigger stuff: how where you grow up can shape your beliefs about what’s possible.

Andy shares the moments that expanded his world beyond Tottenham - including the stories his dad brought home as a minicab driver, a work experience placement that shifted his view of wealth and belonging, travelling that widened his sense of connection, and the mentor who changed the trajectory of his career.

Hattie unpacks why physical space matters more than we realise (especially when life feels tangled), how small “environment tweaks” can make a huge mental difference, and why your village isn’t just something you’re lucky enough to have - it’s something you can build (and be).

You’ll leave with a few practical prompts to try this week:

• How to “play” with your environment so you can work and think better
• How to map your current village - and start building one if you don’t feel like you have it yet
• Better questions to ask when you meet new people (because “so what do you do?” is… not it)
