Interior Designer Chloe Matters on Burning Out, Starting Over and Rebuilding a Life on Her Own Terms

Chloe Matters is the founder and creative director of Matters and Made, one of Sydney's most distinctive interior design studios.Chloe came into the world with an innate confidence - a willingness to back herself and simply go for it. Which is exactly what makes her honesty in this conversation so compelling. She's remarkably candid about what it felt like to lose that confidence.She launched Matters and Made when her second child was just six months old and her first had only recently turned one. What followed wasn't the version of success she'd imagined. There was burnout, the end of her marriage, and a period where her confidence was completely shaken.So she rebuilt. Learning to trust herself again, to work differently, and to define success on her own terms.In this conversation, we explore the role our homes play in regulating the nervous system, how her relationship with work has evolved, and the non-negotiables that now shape the way she lives, leads and designs.Follow Chloe: @mattersandmade_ | Find her at mattersandmade.com Hosted on Acast.
