I love this quote! It reminds me to dream big! When I do, those dreams are fantastically beautiful. Do you have dreams of how you want things to be in the future?


I recently wrote a series of blogs on the stories we tell ourselves. The last blog in the series talks about wishful thinking. When we dream big and wish for things to be different in the future these dreams become nothing more than wishful thinking unless we act on them. Unless we believe (as Eleanor Roosevelt tells us to) in the beauty of these dreams and DO something about what we wish to see happen they will remain just that – beautiful dreams.


Many times, that is where people stop. Sometimes they must stop because the dream is too outlandish. There is no way and nothing they can do to change that beautiful dream into reality. Other times people stop because they don’t know what steps to take to make the dream happen.


This is where I can help.


If you dream of having a home that you love to walk into, where you can find the things, you need and use, and where you can totally relax and be comfortable, reach out to me. We can work together either virtually or in person.


What does that look like?


It begins with a free 30-minute phone call. We will talk about what is bothering you in your home and ways in which I can change that with you. I want you to know that everything you tell me remains between us. I abide by both the NAPO Code of Ethics and the ICD Code of Ethics.


If you’re dreaming about being more organized and in control in 2024 do something about it and schedule a free phone call with me.

Ways We Can Work Together

Organize Your Home 10 Minutes at a Time People talk about getting organized. The problem is that organized is NOT a destination, it is a way of being. It starts with creating organizing habits. Use this deck of cards to do 1 extra thing each day. Each card will only take 10 minutes. The more often you use the cards, the more organized your home will be.

My List Simplified Journal Resist the urge to buy a 2024 planner. Yes. They are lovely with all the months and weeks laid out so you can fill in all your to-do lists. The problem is that you will most likely use it for a short time. Instead, buy this planner/journal. It is UNDATED. You can use it when you feel the need to track your day. There will be NO WASTED PAGES.
