In this episode, we chat about Umbrella Pine, a living fossil dating back to when dinosaurs walked our world. The same is true of Ginkgo biloba, which we spoke about in episode 85.

There's a lesson in their endurance: The gentle outlasts the strong, referring to the wisdom of the Tao Te Ching, an ancient philosophy to live our true peaceful nature in the rhythm of nature.

More people in the U.S. have discovered Día de los Muertos. Unlike Halloween, it's celebrated over several days and lifts up the spirits of the dead instead of fearing them. Michelle Saenz, licensed professional clinician associate and mental health clinician in the TTUHSC School of Medicine is the guest for this episode. She explains how Día de los Muertos is celebrated, how different cultures and religions grieve and how to talk to your child about death.

Recorded March 6, 2021

Guest notes: 

Dara Segbefia, Interior Decorator (but we call her a House Whisperer)

Questions/Topics:

How did you get started in the decorating?

What's the difference Interior Design and Interior Decorating?

What's the process for engaging with you? 

How do you take a client from a magazine clipping  to a reality in their real space?

How do you deal with difficult clients? Have you ever had to fire a client?

Tell us about the pretty rocks (crystals) in many of your reveal pictures. 

What if I don't have a big budget? If I only have $500 can you still help me?

How is cost determined?
 

Guest Quotes:

I ask a lot of personal questions [of the clients] because every room has energy in it. I ask, "How do you want to feel in this space"?

I ask questions to dig into who you really are then I find the core pieces that an speak your love language.

Every time I put a crystal in someone's home, they love the feeling. It's my way of reminding them that there is peace within their home.

I love to put at least one DYI item within every client's home to give it that personal touch. I'm really big on it. That's what I believe really set me apart from other interior decorators.

Patience has to be one of the main things with getting your space together. You don't want to rush buying furniture and then not be completely invested in it by the end. That's a common mistake. Don't rush!

When I bought my current house I hired an interior decorator to help me.... It was the best money I'd spent. When I tell you I never ever regretted any of the money I spent on my decorator at all... I didn't.

"Smarter Entertainment for a Distracted Audience"

On this episode of Step Up Your Home Georgia speaks with Ben Robertson, the founder of Melbourne architecture firm Tecture. Ben studied at Deakin university before going on to gain experience at some of Melbourne’s most highly regarded architecture firms over the span of a decade. Unfortunately for Ben, he found these workplaces damaging his health and it was then that he decided that he wanted to be a kind, thoughtful architect, human and boss. Tecture was built on creating refined, simplistic and minimal spaces. Each project is tackled with a functionally considered and environmentally thoughtful material approach, that blends luxury with cost efficiency. Ben challenges his team to explore the psychology of the built form, keeping a keen eye on proportion and geometry.

On this episode Georgia talks about the desired home and how taking a good hard look at what you have will really change the way you look at your space. In this episode we work through simple steps to find solutions to the things that really bother you and how to appreciate the things that you do love. We cover moving your way through your house to shrink the things that cause visual noise and how that will ultimately turn your current space into an abode that you enjoy waking up in and love to come home to at night.

On this episode of Step Up Your Home Georgia is interviewing one of her dear friends, local Melbourne Mum of two and founder of the ever-growing online platform Engold, Steffanie Ball. Steff has been in the creative industry for 14 years. She had studied an undergrad in Interior Design at RMIT and what started as an internship position at Georgia's Interior Architecture practice then, blossomed into a long term and very good friendship. Since then Steff has launched her very own platform, Engold alongside her husband Matt Ball. Through Engold Steff aims to adorn homes with timeless pieces that will be cherished for life and provide a space for other creators to do so as well.

On this episode of Step Up Your Home we have the Director of BuildHer Collective, an Australian based company committed to empowering women with the right tools, advice and support to build their dream home. Rebekah Morgan founded Buildher Collective alongside her business partner just 4 years ago and has since helped thousands of women gain their confidence in building their own homes through their online course and newly released book, BuildHer. Rebekah is a registered builder with 14 years of experience. She tutors at Swinburne University, where she herself studied a Master’s degree in Entrepreneurship and Innovation. In addition to that, Rebekah Directs Beirin Projects, who redevelop existing residential properties in the Melbourne suburb of Northcote and its surrounds.

On this episode of Step Up Your Home we are bringing you a bite sized episode of questions that Georgia is frequently asked; from how to get your first design projects, to how you might charge your clients.

On today’s episode of Step Up Your Home we are speaking with none other than one of my good friends Melissa Port. Melissa has over 20 year’s experience in the food and tourism industry and has worked with alongside some highly influential people such as President Bill Clinton, Bob Hawke and John Symonds. In the past she has worked in roles that include lecturer, CEO, Program director and Event manager. Her work as a freelance food stylist and recipe developer has seen her service company’s such as Australian Gourmet Magazine, and Edgell Birds Eye. Melissa now runs private bespoke food tours Australia wide through her company Mia Cucina. Mia Cucina provides unique experiential dining tours that support a diverse range of cultures and communities. Melissa’s food tours are ranked in the Top 6 Food tours in Sydney. As a woman and a mum to 4 beautiful children Melissa believes ‘you have to be open to new ideas and explore new boundaries’ which is why she has led such a diverse career thus far.

On this episode of Step Up Your Home Georgia speaks with Karen Pereira, co owner of Allure Drapes Design & Decor. Karen has been working in the soft furnishing and decorating industry for 16 years. Previously an interior designer and decorator, Karen's knack for material selections and eye for detail has served both her and her clients over many years. Since 2004 Allure Drapes Design and Decor have prided themselves on exemplary customer service, quality and reliability. Here we touch on the biggest misconception in the window furnishings industry, the difference between all the window covering types, pricing points on all the options, how to choose your fabric, the absolute must knows when it comes to your window coverings and SO much more. 

On this episode of Step Up Your Home we have a guest from Brodware which is an Australian based tapware, fittings and accessories company. Lauren Serisier is here to go in depth and give us a run down of all the must know’s about tapware and plumbing when it comes to your home renovation. Lauren is a qualified interior designer who found her passion for bathroom and kitchen design during her studies. From here she worked as a showroom consultant assisting with design and fit out of bathrooms and kitchens, while making great industry connections resulting in her landing at Brodware. 

On this episode of Step Up Your Home, Georgia speaks with Bronwyn Riedel Bauwerk is an Australian born and bred lime paint supplier whose vision is underpinned by the idea that the spaces where we work and live should consider the materials in which they are constructed. Bronwyn has an innate ability to see colour in a different way than most of us. She uses her skills to help her clients create incredible emotive spaces. Bauwerk is now sold internationally and is a fitting solution for both modern and traditional spaces. Perhaps most importantly, Bronwyn has created her business on the foundations that her products should not cause harm to the natural environment or the end user and their health. The result is a stunning product that is low VOC and safe to use around family, pets and coworkers due to its natural mineral and pigment formulation. 

On this episode of Step Up Your Home we get up close and personal with Georgia, through the lense of one of her best friends Tami Sussman. Throughout this episode Tami makes Georgia feel very uncomfortable and opens up a side of her that you probably don't know or haven’t seen before. Tami asks Georgia questions about her youth, tying a few dots together about why she is inspired by certain areas of the world and what led her to having certain aesthetics.
