Elizabeth Day: The Cigarette Case

In this episode of Sort Your Life Out Unpacked, organisational expert Dilly Carter is joined by the ‘queen of podcasting’, Elizabeth Day. Elizabeth brings three meaningful items for Dilly to unpack – literally and figuratively. Each one reveals a story from her life, from cherished childhood memories she still carries with her to the beautiful love story of her grandparents.

Elizabeth opens up about rebuilding a home after divorce, her relationship with partner Justin and whether she colour-codes her bookshelves. Things take an emotional turn when Dilly reflects on what Elizabeth’s words and books have meant to her personally. Elizabeth rates her organisation a confident 9.5/10 – but what will Dilly discover inside the boxes?

Sort Your Life Out Unpacked is a podcast hosted by tidying expert Dilly Carter. In each episode, Dilly chats to a celebrity guest and unboxes three mystery objects from their home that reveal what is really important to them. At the end, Dilly asks her guest whether they are going to keep, donate or recycle any of the items and, along the way, we learn how to organise and sort our own lives out.
