Joanne Hardcastle's unexpected midlife success as an interiors guru and content creator led to, amongst other things, her appearance on Interior Design Masters, interior design's answer to the Great British Bake-Off.
Joanne's current chapter, which she's calling "the fun chapter" of her life, only happened after the ups and downs of life, love, and loss.
CW: To let you know, Joanne and Kristin speak about her experience with miscarriage, which is an important part of her story and that of her family. But she also has so much joy and life wisdom to share.
You can find more about Joanne on Instagram @hardcastletowers and on her blog at hardcastletowers.com
