Habits are a BIG topic with my coaching and organizing clients. Our habits are either going to help us reach our goals (and in many cases reach them faster), or they’re going to delay or prevent us altogether from reaching our goals.
What habits and goals have already come to mind for you?...
The relationship we hold with our belongings in our homes is fascinating to me. After working with my organizing clients for the past 16 years – I've seen it all. I think our stuff can speak volumes about our personalities, values, priorities and where we’ve been. It can even show...
Not too long ago, I was messaging with a friend, catching up on our days. I told him that I got a lot of work done that day, had worked out, and that I was getting ready to head off to meet with a client. His response was, “Nice! You are so busy. The day goes faster like that.”

In this blog series about boosting our energy, we've talked about clearing out the clutter, both physically and mentally. Now, let's shift gears and talk about something we often overlook but that plays a huge role in our energy levels – our SCHEDULES.

A few years ago, I attended a day-long event in San Diego that was hosted by my mentor Brendon Burchard. The whole day was filled with fantastic speakers, including Lewis Howes, Jamie Kern Lima, Trent Shelton, and more. Their messages were equal parts educational and inspirational. My kind of...

I worked with a client, let’s call her Nicole, over the course of a few years. We organized and coached together, and she even attended one of my retreats. She put a lot of effort into making some...
