Let’s talk about housework—the real kind, not the picture-perfect version we see on social media. In this episode, I share my thoughts on the unrealistic pressure to keep a “perfect” home and why it’s time to ditch the guilt and embrace realistic, personalised goals for your space.

I’ve spent time in online cleaning forums (trust me, it’s a journey), and one thing became clear: there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to housework. From how often you change your bedding to whether your floors are spotless, what really matters is creating a home where you feel safe, happy, and content.

I’ll walk you through my own housework goals - keeping things reasonably clean and tidy, having a practical workspace, and creating a comfortable, guest-friendly environment. More importantly, I’ll encourage you to define what works for you, instead of letting staged social media posts set the standard.

If you’re ready to put your housework on autopilot and focus on what really matters, this episode is for you. Let’s let go of perfection and find a rhythm that fits your life.

About Nic:

I'm a home organisation and lifestyle mentor. I help business owners get life organised at home, so they can reclaim their headspace, time and energy needed to grow and run a successful business.

I've navigated through adverse times with hard-hitting curveballs that have forced me to re-assess the importance of self-care and having firm boundaries in place, as well as becoming more organised in the day-to-day running of home, business, and life in general.

My mission is to make sure that everyone has an equal opportunity to create a business they love, without feeling held back by household obligations, or adversity. Drawing upon a diverse range of life experience, I'm building an online community that supports anyone who is struggling to balance home life and business together.
