Working from home has been the norm for both of us for many years, but given the current state of the world it’s a working setup that many people are new to. We happened to record this episode just before lockdown was enforced in the UK, and now the timing for it could not feel more poignant.

We’re over the moon to welcome artist Nina Brooke to the show today! Nina is an artist whose work we’ve admired for a long time — indeed Ella owns one of her beautiful beach prints — and we were thrilled when Nina agreed to come onto the show to discuss her career journey, advice for fellow artists, as well as tips for exploring her home area of Cornwall.
info_outlineWe are so excited to welcome Monica’s Mama Eliana to the show today, to talk all things cleaning and household upkeep.
Anyone who knows Eliana knows that amongst her many talents, she is somewhat of a superhero when it comes to keeping a house tidy, clean and organised.
For fourteen years Eliana owned and ran a guesthouse in Southampton, and (as Monica knows first-hand) it was somewhat of a military operation cleanliness-wise.
Over the years Eliana has come to be the go-to authority for her immediate circle (and her circle’s circle!) for all things housekeeping.
Mama Eliana is truly a fountain of household knowledge, and we are over the moon to welcome her to the show today to talk us through all things household upkeep, cleaning hacks and more.
