We offer FIVE UNIQUE ORGANIZING PROGRAMS based on our 17+ years of experience as detailed in our book, Beyond Tidy: Declutter Your Mind and Discover the Magic of Organized Living (which just celebrated its 5th “bookaversary!”). 

Our goal is to assure your audience that anyone can learn to become organized and THEN teach them tangible skills and strategies they can start using right away.

Presented virtually, in-person (if local) or as a hybrid format, each 1-hour program stands alone and complements the others. Combine two or more to create an engaging series! They are:

• 5 Basic Principles for Getting (& Staying!) Organized
• What Stays and What Goes? (An Organizer's Guide to Making Decisions)
• Where's My Stuff? The Ins and Outs of Managing Space
• How to Manage Your Paper (Without Losing Your Mind!)

A short Q&A follows each presentation, where we answer questions and provide solutions to common challenges that get people stuck. It's a lot of value in a short amount of time!

In this 60- or 90-minute program designed specifically for TEENS, we will teach our five basic organizing principles and practical techniques for creating a clutter-free, organized bedroom they will love spending time in!

Presented IN-PERSON only, this program includes hands-on demos, fun activities, and engaging visuals.

We take a break from presenting in July and August (but we still work on organizing projects with clients!). See you back in September (schedule below):

Our presentations are FREE to the public, so grab pen and paper and get ready to learn in a fun, engaging, and judgment-free zone!

NOTE: Registration info is listed with each event as it becomes available. We are constantly adding new dates to the schedule, so please bookmark this page and check back often!
