Go Green!...A Professional Organizer's Environmental Impact Story

I live in Colorado and it should come as no surprise to anyone that this is a state that is extremely conscientious about the environment. We are surrounded by a natural landscape that deserves, dare I say, demands our respect. With over 17,000 trails there is no end to the ways we can be one with nature and every chance I get I am outdoors, usually hiking on one of those amazing trails. And we are also so lucky to be able to meet friends for a drink at a rooftop bar in Down

If A Picture Paints 1000 Words...A Decluttering Transformation Story

As a professional organizer I see a lot of degrees of clutter and chaos, but it is always the back stories of how people have gotten to where they are that can be the most challenging part to actually get a particular client to the point of a much more organized and calm existence. Such was the case with a large project that #TeamIJS worked on this past week. I was contacted by the sister of a woman who has Down's Syndrome looking to get the home she is living in with a careg

Smiling Faces...A Mother's Day 2021 Story

This past week was a tough one for me...emotionally and physically. Emotionally because I was thinking about the fact that tomorrow, May 10th, will be 16 years since my mother passed away and it changed the way I celebrate/honor Mother's Day ever since. Most importantly, I vowed to always be with my kids for every Mother's Day no matter where we all were in the world This year, though, will be the third year in a row that hasn't happened. In 2019, I was willing to let it slid

You Are Not Alone...A Mental Health Awareness Month Story

In case you aren't aware May is Mental Health Awareness Month. And while I have advocated for many years about what I think is a severely undertreated and ignored epidemic in the U.S., I am taking this virtual soapbox of my own creation and will continue to virtually stand on top of it to shout as loud as I possibly can until change finally happens. I've written far too many social media posts and blogs on this topic due to the ever-rising number of people truly suffering fro

The Story of Passover...Version 2021

It's Sunday morning and I should be getting ready to go on my annual Passover solo hike but instead, I am at my computer for what will probably end up being the better part of the day as I sit here trying to put together this blog. I have always gone on a hike by myself if not the first day of Passover then at some point during the 8 day holiday every year since moving to Colorado in 2016. And before that, I would find a way to be alone for at least a few hours every Passover
