Hey friends! Today, we’re tackling a big one—how to create organizing systems that actually stick. You know the drill—you spend a weekend getting everything neat and tidy, but two weeks later, it’s chaos again. Why does this keep happening? Well, a lot of organizing systems fail because they’re too complicated, unrealistic, or don’t actually fit into our daily lives.In this episode, I’m breaking down how to design systems that work for you (not against you). We’re talking about keeping it simple, making it flexible, and creating habits that actually make sense. Because let’s be real—if it’s not easy to maintain, it’s not going to last.Oh! And if you’ve ever thought about starting your own professional organizing business, I’ve got a brand-new YouTube mini-series just for you. Plus, I’m sharing an amazing resource from The Digital Wrangler on legacy planning (because digital clutter is a thing too).

Why You Should Listen:
  • You’re tired of setting up organizing systems that don’t last.
  • You want easy, practical solutions that fit your real life.
  • You’re curious about how to make organizing work for you, not feel like another chore.
Key Takeaways:
  • Figure out what specific problem you’re solving before creating a system.
  • Design organizing solutions around your natural habits (not some Pinterest-perfect fantasy).
  • Keep steps minimal—if it’s too complicated, you won’t stick with it.
  • Build in flexibility—life changes, and your systems should adapt with you.
  • Accountability is key! Find ways to check in and tweak as needed.
So grab your coffee (or your favorite cozy drink), press play, and let’s get into it!
