Discovering organizing ten years ago was a happy mistake. I thought I was destined to spend my career in international development, traveling the world and crafting communications for different audiences to explain why development programs make the world a better place. But when I found professional organizing, I recognized I had found another compelling life purpose. I could see how organization immediately helps people live fuller, healthier lives. I was also a brand-new mom and wife at the time, so finding professional organizing illuminated how I could make the balancing act of parent, spouse and professional a little saner. It didn't guarantee my daily sanity – but it has made life simpler!
I believe that organization in the home and the systems we use to keep our possessions in order preserves the finite stores of energy we have to use each day. We need that energy to be present, positive and able to take on daily challenges and opportunities. When places in our home or certain possessions make us feel stressed, it drains our energy.
Now organizing is my full-time job and my full-time mission. I find joy in making the world a better place, one client at a time. I’ve seen firsthand how clients breathe a sigh of relief to see their home more organized and feel empowered to get other areas of their life organized too. I love to help people find this relief and find more time to enjoy life and not be bogged down by disorganization.
My own organization is an ongoing journey. As my son goes to middle school next Fall and other life transitions happen, I know I need to reevaluate what parts of my home are working or not working for me and my family so that we can leave home and arrive home less stressed and with more time and energy to do the things we like to do.
Let me know how I can help you reclaim your energy and time to enjoy life!
