I'm Sara Morel, host of the Reclaimed Woman podcast. Whether you're dressing yourself or your home, this is your source for reuse. Here we get into the joy of vintage, antiques, salvage, and making the most of what's already out there.

I founded Reclaimed Woman to share the journey of my renovation with as much reuse of salvage and vintage pieces as possible. After restoring my home with reclaimed materials, I was encouraged to challenge myself and how I lived, worked, and even dressed to do things differently. I began researching brands and interviewing people who bring reuse into their work and lifestyle to learn from those genuinely doing it individually. I am addicted to storied antiques and reclaimed materials, and the people behind the independent shops, businesses and brands I meet often become a part of the story when you source this way – hence the podcast.

It is easy to forget that eight years ago, when I created Reclaimed Woman, finding sustainable ways to dress ourselves or our homes was much harder. On the surface, it seems like everything has advanced hugely, and the word "sustainable" is part of our mainstream language. But in fashion terms, it can be hard to separate the green from the washing, so I still seek out and share ideas and places to help you (and me) design and source more intentionally. Whether you’re dressing yourself or your home, join me on the journey into the reuse lifestyle.
