Interested in having a clean and organized home, but you’re too busy or don’t know where to start?

You’ll feel right at home here.

Tidy Habits Busy Lives is all about helping you get your house in order in a simple manner.

Time is a premium and spending more time than you have, cleaning, or decluttering is no fun and is unrealistic.

Does any of this sound familiar?

About 20 years ago, I decided to declutter and organize my living room.  I started moving furniture, taking books and knick-knacks off the shelves, and piling items on the floor. I had no plan or clue about what to get rid of or where things were going to go.  As I sat in the pile looking around, my doorbell rang – a friend and her new beau had come by unannounced! I opened the door just a crack and refused to let them in because I felt embarrassed about my home. My friend asked to use the washroom and I pointed to the nearest gas station and quickly closed the door! Surprisingly enough, we’re still friends.

I didn’t want to feel embarrassed about my home and decided to do something about it.

So, I dove into books, took professional organizing courses, and over time, incorporated the information to create methods that work for me.  Is my home perfect? No. But, it is at a place where I feel better about it and drop-in guests are less stressful.

With 30 years of frontline experience in psychology and rehabilitation, I understand the importance of helping people work through their challenges and take action in their lives.

When your surroundings are in chaos, it can be difficult to focus on anything else.   This is the reason I want to help you create a sense of peace and order in your home.

If you are interested in implementing efficient home management tips that work, I invite you to stay tuned. Busy lives need effective solutions – let’s do this!
