Hello! This is Episode 373, and I’m kicking off a 4-part mini-series on how to make confident, clear decisions in your project.

SO MANY homeowners tell me they wish for the ability to make confident, clear decisions in their project. And that’s totally understandable when you’re investing this much time, money and effort, and creating something so long-term and impactful as your own home. 

The good news is that it IS possible to feel much more confident, and clearer about what are the right and most suitable choices for you and your home, whilst avoiding the costly and stressful mistakes along the way.

What’s important to understand is this: Confidence doesn’t just appear at the end when everything’s finished. It’s something you can build step by step, with the right guidance, tools, and support along the way.

Confidence in your project also isn’t about having all the answers on your own. It’s about being resourced with the frameworks, the questions, and the support that make the answers easier to find. 

When you have that, every step becomes clearer, calmer, and more rewarding. And in this mini-series, I’m going to take you through some tips on how to do this through each Phase of your project.

So, this episode is all about the Pre-Design Phase. This is the phase that sets up everything that follows, yet it is the most skipped. In this episode, I will show you three practical ways to build clarity from the start so you avoid costly detours later.

These are not dramatic horror-story moments. They are the quiet missteps that creep in when you do not have a plan for the early stage. Each can derail progress, add expense, and leave you second-guessing.

Whether you are just getting started or already feeling stuck, this episode will help you step back, reset, and move forward with much more confidence and clarity.
