“I really appreciate Sara’s approach to organizing. She took into account what would work for our family’s lifestyle and then we made a plan of how to organize our things for real life, not a magazine. The most amazing part is that it has stayed organized because everything has a home! . . . If you want to get organized and STAY organized, Sara is the one for the job!”

Tips for creating space and time for things that really matter.
Dealing with Overwhelm
Professional organizers are in the business of dealing with overwhelm, so I know it when I see it. While the pandemic and summer have provided some means for slowing down a bit, there's a flip side as well. Kids will be starting school this month or next, but where...
