Favorite quotes:
10:35 video - “Decorating is just as much about what we remove from a room than what we add. It isn’t about adding expensive things. It is about adding the right things.”
11:19 video - “We underestimate the fact that small changes can make a huge impact.”
21:21 video - “When you get the right seating surfaces and storage in your room, which most of us already have, but when we add that homey trinity for most of us our rooms magically feel 80-90% done.”
28:02 video - “Find a way to not hate the biggest piece in your room and it will change the way you feel about the room.”
Coaching this week:
Keep It Simple & Take Action (39:57 video)
In coaching this week, I share that to succeed, keep it simple and take action. Overcoming the tendency to overthink and procrastinate is key; start with small steps, seek guidance if needed, and remember that progress comes from action, not endless planning.
