What if my house is too messy?
We have truly seen it all. We are here to help, not to judge. No matter how far behind you feel on tidying your home, the best time to start is now. Let’s chat.
What is your process?
Every home is unique, so we custom tailor each organizing project to your specific home and lifestyle.
Do I need to be there?
Generally, yes. We like to work directly with our clients so that we can maximally custom tailor everything to your preferences, lifestyle, etc.
That being said, there are situations where we can work on our own.
Or sometimes clients will be working from home, and we will put things in categories and then bring the client in from time to time to make a batch of decisions.
We are flexible. Let’s chat about your situation and see what we can work out.
What do you mean, digital organizing?
We can sit down with you and help you organize your phone and computer. Your inbox, files, passwords, backups, photos, etc. Whatever aspect of your digital life you have been feeling overwhelmed by, we are here to help.
Will you protect my privacy?
Absolutely 100% yes. We are happy to even sign an NDA if that helps.
Can you help me even though I have ADHD?
Absolutely. Many of our clients are challenged to stay organized because of neurodivergence and we can work with you to implement systems to help you stay organized over time.
What if I have a hard time making decisions?
We will ask you clarifying questions to help you move through many decisions quickly. People are often very pleasantly surprised by how decisive they are during their sessions.
I am experiencing some difficult emotions. Can you help me?
Absolutely. Many of our clients feel stuck. Most of them are experiencing feelings like shame, guilt, overwhelm, frustration, etc. We can talk you through all of it.
We bring compassion and understanding, and love helping people move through these difficulties to a new, clear state of being. (Both inner and outer.)
Will I need to buy organizing products?
Most of our clients don’t need to purchase anything beyond what they already have at home.
When we do have a recommendation for a bin or drawer dividers or something, we will send you a link to purchase it so it can be delivered right to your home.
What do you do with the stuff I let go of?
We are very eco-conscious, and so we do our best to give things directly to people who can use them. Priority goes to unhoused folks (bedding, tents, sleeping bags, toiletries, food, etc). And after that we give things away for free in Facebook groups, etc. We usually try to avoid donating to thrift stores because they can be quite wasteful. But if you want us to donate to a thrift store, we are open to honoring your preferences.
My elder parent(s) needs help. Can you help them?
Absolutely. We have worked with elders on many occasions, and we love to help them. We are patient, compassionate, and kind.
Do you work with kids?
Yes! We’ve worked with many children and families over the years. We approach every session with patience and kindness, helping kids learn age-appropriate organizing skills and gain confidence making choices about their belongings. Along the way, they learn to let go of items they no longer use so that other children can enjoy them.
Where do you work?
We are based in Los Angeles. We are somewhat flexible about how far we will travel. And can also potentially help you virtually. Feel free to contact us and we can discuss.
How do you charge?
We charge a flat hourly fee. Contact us for more info.
Can I get an estimate?
Because each project is so different, there is no way to know how long yours will take. We work as quickly as we can and charge a flat hourly rate.
How long will it take?
Because each job is unique, we are never quite sure how long an organizing project will take. We work as quickly and efficiently as we can until it’s finished.
Is sustainability / Eco-Consciousness part of your approach?
100%. We are very eco-conscious, and so we do our best to keep things out of landfills by giving them directly to people who can use them. Priority goes to unhoused folks (bedding, tents, sleeping bags, toiletries, food, etc). And after that we give things away for free in Facebook groups, etc.
We usually try to avoid donating to thrift stores because they can be quite wasteful. But if you want us to donate to a thrift store, we are open to honoring your preferences.
Do you have gift certificates?
We do! The gift of our organizing services is such a thoughtful, meaningful gift that people love to receive.
