Today's special guest is Professional Organizer Holly Perez, owner of H.A.P. Organizing Solutions. Join us as we talk about how getting organized is a form of self-care. Holly also shares actionable tips and her own journey with getting organized. The term "self-care" has been a marketing buzzword lately, and it evokes mixed feelings for many, including myself. An article I found on Yahoo states that the term "self-care" has "become so big and amorphous that it can be difficult to suss out what...

Avalanche. Tsunami. Mountains. Oceans. Would these words accurately describe the amount of paper that we process throughout our lifetime? Let me share a statistic used by the book I am about to introduce to you: "The average American household processes a paper stack as high as a two-story house every year." Imagine that! So maybe it's not outlandish to describe our paper as an avalanche, tsunami, etc. Even with massive technological advances and a push for a paperless (or at least less paper)...

Do you find yourself distracted even after you've scheduled a time to declutter a particular area in your home? Something that you deem more important comes up. You receive a phone call or text message that "needs" your attention. Someone needs something from you. Mind you, this happens within the short 15 minutes that you try to declutter, even just a bedside table. My friend, you are definitely not alone on this. No one is immune to distractions (not even a professional organizer), especiall...

Just imagine looking inside your closet, smiling, and loving everything you had in it. Getting dressed for work or for an event is a breeze because you can find what you need and you no longer run late. Sounds amazing, right? Unfortunately, this is not (yet) the case for many of us. According to a survey from OnePoll, 47% of women struggle with deciding on which work outfit they should wear. The struggle is real! Help is on the way, my friend. My guest, Holly Moran, a Professional Organizer, w...

Receipts. Legal documents. Paper bills. Magazines. Work papers. Random notes you wrote on Post-Its. Grocery lists. To-do lists. All. The. Paper. With these ongoing incoming papers, it can really become frustrating when they pile up and you hardly know what to do with them. We then stash them away while we hope they would disappear on their own, except, they don't and they leave us frustrated and overwhelmed. Can you relate? I've been there too! Join me and my guest, friend, and fellow profes...
