Desiree Burch: Corsets and Crystals

Available for over a year

Moving away from the country you grew up in can be both tough and full of joy. In this episode, comedian Desiree Burch and professional organiser Dilly Carter reflect on where it truly feels like home. Taskmaster and Live at the Apollo star Desiree brings in three items for Dilly to unpack, which reveal Desiree’s previous career as a dominatrix(!), the thing that Desiree has far too much of and how her childhood home has affected how she lives now. And we hear why Desiree ranks herself a one out of ten when it comes to organisation! This episode is full of tips to help you sort our own life out including how to stop overbuying, how to honour treasured clothes, and how we can reflect on our relationship to stuff in order to change our habits. Desiree was ready to sort her life out, but can Dilly be the divine intervention that she wants? Sort Your Life Out Unpacked is hosted by tidying expert Dilly Carter. In each episode, Dilly chats to a celebrity guest and unboxes three mystery objects from their home that reveal what is really important to them. At the end, Dilly asks her guest whether they are going to keep, donate or recycle any of the items and, along the way, we learn how to organise and sort our own lives out.
