In this new video, I share real client examples of how simple cardboard boxes can become surprisingly effective organizing tools. You’ll see how we turn everyday materials into custom solutions—proving that you always have exactly what you need to get started, even before a single shopping trip.

Decluttering first isn’t always the best approach. Often, grouping items—especially papers—helps you see what you really need to keep. One client, after years of organizing, is now ready to let go of papers she once thought she couldn’t part with. Organizing doesn’t mean you have to keep everything forever. Sometimes, you need to let things “simmer” before confidently letting them go.

Letting go is easier when someone takes the time to listen. In this post, I share how one client’s stories helped him finally release years of sentimental clutter — and how you can use storytelling to make decluttering feel less overwhelming.

Decluttering isn’t always joyful—and that’s okay. Letting go can stir up guilt, sadness, and unexpected emotions. In this post, I share powerful client stories that show how emotional release and real progress often go hand in hand. If clutter weighs heavy on your heart, this read offers both insight and encouragement.

Struggling to work from your dining room? In my latest video, I share how I turned my dining table into a functional home office after 20 years of working from it. Learn space-saving tips like creating a micro desk, using dining room drawers for filing, and storing office essentials in a credenza. Even if you have a real home office, these ideas will help maximize your space!

What I love about the power of the pause is it's just that. A pause. My client didn't say, "Look at me taking a half hour to put something away!" It was just a moment. If you collect enough moments, your space and life start to change right before your eyes.
