We think you’ll love the brand new weekly chat series: ‘Best Friend Energy’ with hosts Clea Shearer and Joanna Teplin of The Home Edit.

On ‘Best Friend Energy’ you get to know Clea and Joanna even better than before—you become a part of their inner circle! Their friendship and business began with a single text and now has them organising celebrity homes, traveling the world and laughing every step of the way. You might know them from the hit Netflix series “Get Organized with The Home Edit” but they’ve got a lot more to talk about. They may be professional organisers, but their lives are pretty chaotic. And when life gets too crazy, they have each other to lean on and laugh with. That’s what best friends are for! 

Each week they’ll interview special guests—old friends and new friends—answer YOUR questions, and deep dive on all of the everyday annoyances that life has to offer. Join them every Tuesday as they talk about anything and everything. 

From Sony Music Entertainment, Hello Sunshine, The Home Edit and Somethin' Else, listen and follow Best Friend Energy wherever you get your podcasts.

After losing the sight in her right eye at age 11 and losing her eyesight entirely at age 17, Lucy Edwards lives in a world not constructed for her. Lucy has the very rare genetic condition incontinentia pigmenti, one that only about 1,200 people have in the world, and 97% of those people, are women.

Now, at 26 years old, and as a presenter, producer and content creator, Lucy has dedicated her social media and TikTok channel to educating her followers on her day to day, and in 2021, Lucy was announced as Pantene’s newest Ambassador, for a product line featuring trailblazing technology making packaging accessible for the blind and visually impaired.

Lucy Dawson is the epitome of the word extraordinary, and what this podcast is all about! At 20 years old, whilst in her final year of university, Lucy experienced head pain which quickly evolved into manic episodes, leading to her being sectioned by medical professionals for 3 months.
