debt

"Debt is never the real problem.  It is only symptomatic of the real problem:  greed, self-indulgence, impatience, fear, poor self-image, lack of self-worth, lack of self-discipline, or something else."  - Ron Blue, "Master Your Money" (c) professional organizer in Nashville professional organizer in Franklin organize house

compulsive hoarding

is the excessive acquisition of possessions (and failure to use or discard them) even if the items are worthless, hazardous or unsanitary.  It impairs mobility and interferes with basic activities, including cooking, cleaning, showering, and sleeping.

LIFE EVENTS & TRAUMA

such as divorce, loss of a job or loved one, changing homes, illness, just to name a few, can be very traumatizing leaving even the most organized person overwhelmed, stressed, or paralyzed.  It's not that you're sloppy, or lazy, or don't care, but quite the opposite.  That's why you may feel embarrassed to ask for help or let others see your environment.  So be kind to yourself...  Trauma is much more common than many realize but it can be temporary. You can find healing and have your life put back in order again so you can then start to thrive and blossom...  I've seen it over and over again.  So don't get discouraged, this too will pass... organize house in Nashville professional organizer in Nashville professional organizer in Franklin

WHY DISORGANIZED

The "t's"... we lack the time, tools, or techniques. Or we lack the thought processes or it's just not our thing.  We may want to get organized but lack the time, or get overwhelmed, or don't know where to start...  I hear it all the time, so be kind to yourself.  professional organizer in Nashville organize house professional organizer in Franklin

"retail therapy" organize house in nashville

shopping habits have changed a lot in the last 50 years and have greatly impacted our lifestyles and environments. Shopping can be very "therapeutic" and feel immensely pleasurable, but it's often short lived and can create more problems such as clutter, debt, and hoarding.  As a result, we need to rethink how we see and value items and be very intentional when making purchases...

credit & finances

have also changed a lot in the last 50 years.  As a result, our parents and teachers weren't equipped to prepare us for handling our credit and finances.   Years are spent in preparing us for occupations or professions, but generally less than a few hours in the use and planning of money, debt, investments, insurance, and estate  organization.  We need to rethink our finances in terms of how to strategically use our hard earned money, and how to get our financial houses in order with a "cradle to grave" approach and beyond... That way, your hard earned money and assets go to work for you in life and when you're gone after catching The Bus...

chronic disorganization

is having a past history of disorganization in which self-help efforts to change have failed, an undermining of current quality of life due to disorganization, and the expectation of future disorganization.

POSSESSIONS professional organizer in nashville

take time.  Too many, or the wrong types can demand a lot of time to care for and keep organized.  We need to rethink how we see and value items and be very intentional as to what we keep including gifts, finds, and memorabilia.  "Do you LOVE it or NEED it?"™ - Delia.   No really.   professional organizer in Nashville Professional organizer in Franklin organize house
