- In this final episode of the series, young popstar extraordinaire turned wellness retreat host and sound healer Charlotte Church opens up creating a more intentional life and reveals her surprising morning routine.
Charlotte brings three items for Dilly to unpack, including a special performance and a dip into her spiritual side. They bond over R&B, tattoos and decluttering – but as someone who’d happily live outdoors, Charlotte can’t quite forgive Dilly’s track record with houseplants.
Charlotte may have left much of her past behind, but can Dilly uncover why she still can’t let go of her birthing pool?
Sort Your Life Out Unpacked is 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.

Alex brings in three items from home that represent his life for Dilly to unpack. They talk about why he has a hairdryer in every room of the house, his love for motorbiking and the best stomping companion of all.
He opens up to Dilly about how he has learnt to create an environment that calms his mind and how his ADHD, autism and OCD diagnoses have transformed his understanding of himself and the way he lives day to day. Plus – Dilly is impressed by Alex’s method of reducing impulse purchases!

An Optomen production for iPlayer and BBC Sounds. - Dilly is joined by content creator, model and ‘mumfluencer’ Louise Boyce, aka Mamastillgotit. She opens up about living in an ‘Instagram vs Reality’ house and embracing the chaos of home renovation when you’ve got young children.
Louise brings in three items from home for Dilly to unpack. They talk about the pair of helping hands that got Louise to where she is today, Dilly is confronted with her worst nightmare, and Louise reminisces about how she quite literally manifested her dream man.
Louise has documented it all, first in her diaries and then on social media; from teenage heartbreak through to self-love, motherhood and creating much-loved crazy fictional characters…
But can Dilly manifest a future where Louise’s ever-growing pile of odd socks is finally under control?
Dilly's conversation also includes a discussion of Louise's experiences with bulimia. Information and support for some of the issues covered in our programmes can be found at bbc.co.uk/actionline

An Optomen production for iPlayer and BBC Sounds. - Dily Carter is joined by, presenter Yinka Bokinni explains, how motherhood has reshaped her life, and why she never leaves home without an interdental stick (it involves Ed Sheeran)...
Yinka brings in three seemingly everyday items and Dilly unpacks the real meaning behind them. One represents motherhood and how she always needs to be ‘on’, one represents how Yinka’s family are the village that continues to raise her.
She and Dilly have more in common than they realised - they bond over Lazy Susans, boardgame storage and being the organised one in the relationship. Plus, Dilly attempts to get to the bottom of why Yinka keeps playing cards in the fridge…

An Optomen production for iPlayer and BBC Sounds. - In this episode Dilly is joined by Melvin Odoom for a cheeky and surprisingly revealing chat about the objects he just can’t let go of.
Melvin brings along three items that tell the story of his life so far – a stack of MiniDiscs packed with homemade radio demos from his early attempts to break into broadcasting, a treasured Olympic torch from the London 2012 Games, and a retro computer game from his childhood that still brings back memories of growing up.
As Dilly digs into the stories behind each item, Melvin opens up about why he gets emotionally attached to objects, the memories they hold, and why he struggles to throw anything away. From nostalgic childhood moments to the hustle of trying to make it in radio, the conversation is packed with laughs, honest reflections and plenty of cheeky back-and-forth between the pair.
Along the way, Dilly tries to work out whether Melvin is sentimental or simply incapable of having a clear-out – and Melvin does his best to defend the ever-growing collection of memories he keeps around him.
