My guest for today’s episode is Katie Woods, the force of nature behind hit interiors Instagram account @Comedowntothewoods, which has a mind-blowing 217,000 followers.

As well as being one of the UK’s most successful influencers with a stunning house and a real eye for pattern and design, Katie also happens to be a dentist. She and husband Chris live in Leeds with their 4 children, a dog and two kittens, and are doing up a holiday rental property in Devon! 

During our chat, Katie reveals the secret to home schooling four children while running two businesses and staying sane. She talks about her evolution from dentist to influencer, and how her family has reacted to this strange new career. We also discuss why she doesn’t care if people unfollow her and the importance of good manners on social media, plus why you shouldn’t bother tidying your house, and the book that saved her marriage. 

Play with Emily Murray is the podcast that’s all about finding the fun in our day-to-day lives. I’m your host Emily Murray, the author, blogger and trapeze owner behind Instagram’s @pinkhouseliving, and a strong proponent of playfulness. Each episode I’ll be asking my guest how they bring the joy into their lives, and how we can usher it into ours.
