For the people with the half-finished mood boards...

I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately.

The hardest part is not doing it, it’s doing it alone.

Most people come into Room Service thinking it’s just about creating a space.

Sometimes it’s large scale - reimagining an old motel.

Sometimes it’s smaller - renovating a spare room, redesigning a studio, or refurbing an old dairy into guest accommodation - something they want to rent out or turn into something beautiful.

And yes, it is that.

But it’s also something else.

A lot of the people I work with are doing this on their own.

They’ve had an idea sitting there for a while.

They’ve maybe started a mood board, picked out paint swatches… stopped… changed their mind… gone quiet on it.

Not because they’re not capable. Just because it’s actually quite hard to keep moving when it’s just you.

No one to run things past. No one to say “that works” or “maybe try this instead.”

No one to keep you accountable in a gentle way.

So things drift.

That’s a big part of why I run Room Service the way I do.

As well as video learning modules and intimate interviews with the pros - we meet every Tuesday for an hour. It’s not formal. You can bring whatever you’re working through, or nothing at all some weeks.

We’re creating space together.

To think things through out loud, make decisions a bit more easily and have a good giggle. And things start to move. Projects become unstuck and the “crazy ideas” become real.

People start backing themselves. I love witnessing that shift!

Alongside all of this, people start making smarter choices and through our Club Room Service partnerships, they often save far more than the cost of the course itself.

Including up to 30% off MicroCloud Bedding and 20% off Fisher & Paykel, Koala Eco and Tint Paint!
