'Never ever stop. Clarity comes when you're in motion; nothing grows in stagnant water, only mosquitoes. You have to give yourself the opportunity to flow—just flow. Keep doing, pick the next project in front of you, and pour yourself into it.' Torera George is a home expert, blogger, and educator who helps women create clean, organized, and stylish homes they always want to come back to. She didn’t grow up learning how to cook, clean, or organize efficiently, and only began cooking seriously at 21. Determined to improve, she spent the next decade mastering the skills to create a home she loves. Now, she’s sharing her expertise with others, offering resources like blog posts and videos to help people build clutter-free, welcoming spaces that reflect their unique style. Whether it’s tips on cleaning, organizing, or creating a cozy atmosphere, she provides reliable, tested advice and is always ready to answer questions on cleaning challenges. She invites others to join her on the journey to elevate their homes and lives.
In this conversation, Torera and I trace her personal journey from learning basic home skills to becoming an expert in homemaking. She shares valuable tips on how to maintain an organised, inviting home, insights on creating routines for managing household tasks, and her philosophy on how consistency leads to clarity and growth.
