Working with a Home Organizer: Our Simple & Enjoyable Process Explained

Feeling like the clutter in your home is contributing to your stress? After a hard day at work, it's no fun coming home to a space where you can't exhale and relax.

As a professional organizer, I can help with that, and I promise working with me is a judgment-free zone.

Step #1: The Initial Consultation

The first thing we'll do is schedule a complimentary Zoom consultation. We'll talk about what's going on with your home and how I can help. Then we'll go ahead and schedule your first organizing session.

Step #2: Reviewing Your Space, Defining Your Vision, & Decluttering

As a Certified KonMari Consultant®, I'm going to help you do a tidying festival. We'll start by reviewing your space and defining your vision. And then we’ll get started decluttering and organizing. Rather than going room to room, we'll use Marie Kondo’s process of working through your home category by category (clothes, books, papers, miscellaneous items, and sentimental items) to identify what sparks joy and what you want to discard (that decision is totally yours), leaving you with a tidy home.

Step #3: Organizing Your Belongings & What’s Next

The key to keeping things tidy is to identify a place for each of the categories mentioned above. Once we've decluttered, we'll work together to organize items in each category. There's no need to buy any organizing products up front; in fact, I recommend you don't do that. We won't know what you'll need (if anything) until we've decluttered and decided where things should go. But the beauty of a tidying festival is that once you've completed it, your home will remain clutter-free going forward.

Surrounded only by things that spark joy for you, now you get to live out that vision you created for yourself at the beginning of our time together. You have a home that's a welcoming, nurturing space for your dreams. And a place you feel comfortable and confident inviting others over to visit too!

Until next time,
