Eleanor Cording-Booth is an interiors writer and creative consultant whose work has appeared in House & Garden, British Vogue, Cabana Magazine and the Evening Standard. Shortly after turning forty and getting engaged, Eleanor found herself unexpectedly single, navigating the end of her eleven-year relationship. In this episode, we talk about heartbreak, starting over, and how losing the life you thought you'd have can sometimes be the beginning of something even better.

If you’ve been listening for a while, you’ll know I’m a little evangelical about their teas. Avantcha’s collection spans almost 170 varieties — from elevated classics like Majestic Earl Grey (my absolute favourite) to rare small-batch leaves sourced directly from producers around the world. And if you don't know where to start, may I suggest their Silk Teabag Explorer box, a selection of 16 of their best-selling flavours.

You can explore the full range on Avantcha's website and get 15% off your order with the code SPILLINGTEA15.
