Love and Organise

🌻 Today’s the day…

I honestly can’t believe I’m typing those words.

A few weeks ago, this idea popped into my head and I couldn’t stop thinking about it. It felt exciting, terrifying, a little bit crazy… and for a while I wasn’t even sure if I’d actually go through with it.

So instead of blurting it all out, I decided to have a bit of fun.

This week you’ve seen clues about tickets, beanies, scarves, a hairbrush and a whole lot of random reels. 😂 Some of you have been completely confused, some of you have worked it out already, and quite a few of you have been sending me DMs to see if your guess was right.

I’ve absolutely loved every minute of it.

But something happened this week that meant I couldn’t quietly change my mind anymore.

I told the teachers at the schools I’ll be working at this term what I was about to do.

Then I stood up in front of a whole school assembly and shared my plan.

The moment I said it out loud, I realised…

Well… there’s no backing out now! 😅

It was scary, but it also made everything feel real.

If you’ve only just joined me, or you’ve missed a few clues along the way, head over to my Story Highlights and watch “The Big Reveal.” Everything from this week’s adventure is sitting there waiting for you.

Today’s reveal isn’t about chasing views or trying to go viral.

It’s about stepping outside my comfort zone, supporting a cause that’s close to my heart, and doing something I’ve never done before.

I honestly couldn’t have done this week without all of you.

Every follow, every comment, every message, every guess, every person who’s laughed along with me or quietly cheered me on… thank you. It means more than you’ll ever know.

This week alone, 9 new people joined the Love & Organise community. That might not sound like a huge number to some people, but to me it’s the biggest week of new followers I’ve ever had, and every single one of you matters.

💛 So… what’s your final guess before this afternoon?

Leave your guess in the comments, or send me a DM if you don’t want to spoil it for everyone else.

By this afternoon… you’ll finally know. 🌻

A few weeks ago, one of those ideas popped into my head.

At first, I laughed it off. Then I kept thinking about it… and thinking about it. Now, on one of the coldest winter days we’ve had, I’ve rebuilt the shelves, started putting everything into place, and somehow this crazy idea is becoming real.

The funny part?

I’m not sure how much longer I can keep this one to myself. 😂

I’m dropping little clues along the way, so if you’ve been wondering what all the tickets, shelves and mysterious posts are about… keep watching.

What do you think is going on? 👀

💛 Congratulations to my two amazing winners! 💛

A huge congratulations to Tashi Boyd and Carley Begg, who have each won a FREE 2-Hour Home Declutter Session! 🎉

Thank you both for being brave enough to put your hands up and share your stories. Asking for help isn’t always easy, and I hope this is the beginning of creating homes that feel a little calmer, lighter and easier to enjoy.

You’ll each also receive a copy of my Hot Mess Reset PDF guide to help keep the momentum going after your session. 🏡💛

A little behind-the-scenes moment… 😂

The winners were actually drawn last week, but thanks to school holidays and life getting busy, I completely forgot to create a winners announcement!

So today I asked Sage, my AI team member, to help me create this colourful graphic so I could finally celebrate these two wonderful women. 💻🌿

Normally you’ll see plenty of real photos across my page because that’s what Love & Organise is all about—real homes, real people and real life. But today, Sage definitely came to the rescue and helped me tick one more thing off my to-do list.

Thank you to everyone who entered, shared the giveaway and supported this little Pay It Forward project. Every comment, share and word of encouragement means so much as I continue growing Love & Organise.

💛 Sometimes all someone needs isn’t more storage… they just need someone to stand beside them, without judgement, and help them take the first step.

Here’s to creating calmer, more functional homes, one small step at a time. 🌼

💛 PAY IT FORWARD GIVEAWAY 💛

This is my lounge room.

Some days it looks tidy. Other days, life happens.

Work, kids, ADHD, washing, family, unexpected challenges… it all builds up sometimes. And that’s exactly why I believe nobody should feel embarrassed to ask for a helping hand.

I’d love to gift one local person a FREE 2-hour Home Declutter Session through Love & Organise.

Together we’ll sort through your space without judgement, creating simple systems that work for your home and your life. At the end of the session, I’ll also take away your donation items and rubbish bags, so that’s one less thing on your to-do list.

✨ To enter:
💛 Nominate yourself or someone you’d love to pay it forward to.
💛 Tell me why this session would make a difference.
💛 If you’re nominating someone else, tag them in the comments so they know you’re thinking of them.

📍 Available within approximately 1 hour of Warragul, Victoria.

🗓️ Entries close Tuesday 30 June at 8:00pm, and I’ll announce the winner on Wednesday 1 July.

Good luck! I can’t wait to read your stories and help someone create a little more breathing room at home. 💛

Winter sunshine, fresh air and a slower pace. ☀️🌺

It’s almost 4 pm on the first day of the school holidays, and today has been one of those simple days.

The washing is on, Madi and I enjoyed a DIY workshop at Bunnings this morning, and now I’m soaking up the afternoon sunshine through the window.

These holidays aren’t about packing every minute with activities. They’re about making memories, enjoying the little moments, and reminding myself that not everything on the to-do list needs to happen today.

What did your family get up to on Day 1 of the school holidays? I’d love to hear what everyone has been doing. 💛

Today wasn’t a productive day.

There were no big business goals ticked off.
No decluttering projects completed.
No fancy meal prep.
No crossing things off endless to-do lists.

Instead, I spent most of the day in bed with a heat pack, trying to manage period pain that completely wiped me out.

By 4:31pm, I was finally eating lunch.

And it got me thinking…

Why don’t we talk about period pain more?

Not the cute social media version where we mention a cramp and move on.

The real version.

The days where you’re exhausted.
The days where you’re curled up with a heat pack.
The days where getting dressed feels like a major achievement.
The days where you cancel plans, lose motivation, and simply focus on getting through the next hour.

For something that affects so many women every month, we still don’t talk about it nearly enough.

So here’s your reminder that if today looks like survival mode instead of productivity mode, that’s okay.

Your body is working hard.

Sometimes the most important thing on your to-do list is rest, food, water, and being kind to yourself.

Today, my win was finally eating lunch and lighting a candle to make the room feel a little brighter.

I’d love to know — what helps you get through the rough period days? 💕🌺

👇 Let’s have the conversation more women need to hear.

🗂️ HOT MESS RESET #1

Today’s 5-minute task was tackling a pile of old cards.

You know the ones…

📚 Library cards from towns you’ve moved away from
🛍️ Loyalty cards from shops you never visit anymore
🎁 Empty gift cards
💳 Membership cards you’ve forgotten you even had

Some were worth keeping.

Some got cut up and binned.

It wasn’t a huge decluttering project, but it was one less pile taking up space in my home and one less thing rattling around in my brain.

💡 Quick tip: If you’ve moved away from a town and know your library account is clear, there’s probably no reason to keep hanging onto the card.

One thing I’ve learnt through my own ADHD chaos is that decluttering doesn’t have to mean spending an entire weekend organising your house.

Sometimes it’s just finding five minutes and tackling one small pile.

That’s exactly what The Hot Mess Reset is all about.

Small wins.
Less overwhelm.
More breathing room.

What’s one thing you’ve been putting off that would take less than five minutes to sort out today? 💕👇🏻

Little behind-the-scenes confession 😂💖

I wasn’t planning a launch.

I was meant to be resting for Mother’s Day.

Instead my ADHD brain opened Canva, started tweaking branding, updated parts of my website and somehow ended up creating and launching my Colourful Chaos Wallpapers.

Classic.

A month after launching my Hot Mess Reset guide, I’m quietly building little pieces behind the scenes — one idea, one product and one creative rabbit hole at a time.

Real businesses aren’t always built in fancy offices.

Sometimes they’re built:

✨ during school pickup waits
✨ in between work and family life
✨ under blankets in bed
✨ with seventeen tabs open at once 😂

And honestly? I wouldn’t have it any other way.

What does your brain accidentally do when you’re meant to be resting? 👇🏼
