In this light and uplifting episode, I’ll be celebrating spring and the themes of rebirth and renewal that come with it. I’ll be talking about simplicity when it comes to approaching creativity and inspiration, caring for ourselves and our homes, ideas for making and baking beautiful things and a daily ritual to begin this new season with a sense of optimism, hope and abundance.

In this episode  I venture into the forest to discover the marvels, magic and folklore of trees. Did you know they can speak to each other? They keep time and have their own memory. Trees protect one another and use their sense of touch, taste and smell to survive. Did you know they can heal us? Each tree symbolises meaning and magic that stretches back in time. So join me as I revel in the research, defer to the druids and fall further in love with our beautiful trees.
