At the release of this episode, many of you will be on week 2 of quarantine. How is everyone holding up? It’s crazy to think about how COVID-19 has affected the things we take for granted, like the freedom to work, play and socialize without restriction. But rather than focus on the negative, I invited SBO Partner, Mary Cornetta to chat about how we can all pivot with grace during these unprecedented times. To look at the brighter side of things, let’s take a moment to highlight some things that we now have permission to do as a result of self-quarantine. 1. PJ days 2. Sleep In 3. Take a Walk 4. Look up Recipes 5. Eat a meal together 6. Binge-watch something on Hulu or Netflix 7. Write a letter to someone If you are feeling anxious or stressed about being surrounded by clutter, Mary shares how to work with a virtual organizer while under quarantine. Virtual Organizing is proving to be a great alternative for people who crave the personal support, knowledge, and accountability of a professional organizer, by allowing you to work together via zoom, Goggle hangouts, or a good old fashioned phone call! Most, if not all of our SBO Partners are offering virtual sessions to their clients.  In an effort to continue to support local, I encourage you to visit our partner page to find an organizer near you. Stay healthy everyone!       xo - Laurie         Please support us!  SUBSCRIBE to TOL to have new episodes downloaded each week!   REVIEW.  Social influence is the most impactful way to help others find our show!  Struggling with Clutter?  Click HERE to take our FREE clutter quiz!    Stop feeling like a Hot Mess!  HOT MESS: A Practical Guide to Getting Organized is my witty little survival guide that helps you get to the root of your clutter.
