Designed for life with ‘Considered’ creator Helen James

Changing careers and locations is becoming the norm, when the guaranteed job for life is a thing of the past and increasingly the aim for many of us — or at least the dream — is to combine personal passions with earning a living.

Someone who seems to have achieved it is designer Helen James, creator of the enticing ‘Considered’ range of home wares and food products for Dunnes while being a prolific blogger, a judge on RTE’s Home of the Year, and raising three children, all of which she’s achieved after moving to New York not once, but twice. So is she one of those Titan women who is able to have and do it all?

She’s unassuming, accessible, and totally open about the challenges of juggling home and work, and admits to being as fearful as the rest of us when making change.
