Who, What, Why?
Hello! Perhaps you follow me on Instagram? Or maybe you’ve found me via Interior Design Masters? Maybe you picked up my book: Happy Inside: How to Harness the Power of Home for Health and Happiness? Or it’s because of my 13-year tenure as Editor in Chief of ELLE Decoration magazine (my last issue was October 2017)?
However you found me, I’m super happy that you’re here, welcome! I want to inspire and help you harness the power of home as a pathway to health, healing and happiness.
So if being empowered, energised and excited for life sounds good to you, then let me help you stack the odds in your favour.
In my weekly newsletters I share what’s inspiring or surprising me in the home/health sphere but also anything else of note that I think you might like to know about. Usually these are topics in the realm of mind/body/environment, wellbeing and preventative health, after all, you are a vital part of the energy metric of your home — if you are feeling depleted, your home will reflect this.
Our habits and our habitats are intimately interwoven with how we feel. As such, caring about what surrounds you is absolutely fundamental to living/homing well and staying healthy. Your home should be a place that sustains and supports you to become your best self. Sadly, so often they do not, and we silently sabotage ourselves without realising.
So, let me help you, it’s time to make your home your superpower!
Why subscribe…
If you subscribe, you won’t have to worry about missing a thing. My free letters will go directly to your inbox. I also offer previews to most paid posts, so if something tickles your interest, you get a second chance to upgrade…
Why pay to subscribe?
I confess, I wasn't sure whether to go all in for free, just sharing the passion and the intel, or to offer a paid model alongside. I understand that times are tough for many people, and yet I want to create something that is sustainable, and allows for re-investment — Happy Inside courses are the dream, more books too, and maybe even a podcast! But these all come with costs.
My monthly Letter will always be in front of the paywall, and I try to post at least one free Bonus Letter a month as well. But the rest of the content (2 posts/week), the ability to comment, join Threads and Conversations alongside the downloads and workbooks I intend to create, and access to the entire archive (not just the last 3 months), is only for those with paid subscriptions (as little as £4.49/month). So if you can support Better Home: Better Health, please do. I will do my utmost to make it worth your while.
On a fundamental level too, a world in which we don’t think twice about paying £4 for a cup of coffee but baulk at buying a book or newspaper is a world in trouble. I love magazines, broadsheets and the printed word with a fervent passion. I devoted a huge chunk of my life to crafting ELLE Decoration alongside my amazing team into a thing of beauty with a strong voice and a unique enquiring stance. This is my online version of what I started there, and so much more.
