If you’ve ever bought a new rug, throw pillows, or wall art—hoping it would finally pull your space together—only to find your home still feels “off,” this episode is for you.

Before you pick up that paintbrush or shop another sale, there’s a crucial step that often gets skipped: organizing.

In today’s episode, I’m talking with professional organizer, Nicole Gabai, about why organizing isn’t just about putting things in bins or hiding the mess—it’s about creating the foundation for a beautiful, functional, and cohesive home.

You’ll learn:

• Why decorating before organizing leads to frustration and wasted money

• How organizing helps you make smarter design decisions (and fewer mistakes)

• The surprising impact your “stuff” has on how your home feels

• Simple ways to start organizing today—without buying a single new thing

This is the first step toward the cozy, confident home you’re dreaming about. Let’s do it right—and let’s do it together.
