My Story
Organising has always been one of my favourite things to do, mainly because of the way it makes me feel - calm and in control, and like I'm actually staying on top of that never-ending list of 'things to do'.
It was, however, the arrival of my first child that made me want to set up some really effective organising systems to provide me with more quality family time. What really saved my sanity in that first busy year were things like monthly meal plans, an organised kitchen, a system for laundry and ways to deal with the piles of baby clothes!
The arrival of my second child reinforced that having a well-organised home could give me the extra time to focus on my children... even though I had to learn to embrace the hectic life that ultimately is parenthood!
I decided in 2014 that I wanted to follow my passion of home organisation and helping others create more balanced lives. I took a leap of faith, with the encouragement of my husband [who gets to experience my organisation first-hand every day!], and started The Organised You - a how-to blog and professional organising service.
As a [now part-time] primary school teacher, one of my main goals was always to teach children and parents how to be more organised in life - thinking about what wasn't working, finding solutions for their problems and implementing ways to be more in control. I wanted to pass these skills on to a wider community.
In the last 2 years, I have:
- Started The Organised You Blog and TV, which show the step-by-step process for creating organised systems, and share the best tools and strategies
- Created 4 signature products:
* The Productivity Pack - over 30 helpful printables designed to help you be more productive and efficient each and every day, and keep track of household tasks and family commitments.
* Chaos to Calm - a guided online course teaching you the step-by-step process for effectively decluttering your home and setting up organised systems.
* Making Your Paper Work - an 8-week training program teaching you how to tame your paper clutter with confidence using effective systems to reduce the overwhelm, and increase your levels of calm and productivity!
* Clever Kitchens - An in-depth, step-by-step guide [and behind-the-scenes Video Workshop] that shows you how to be more efficient and save time in your kitchen, by setting it up in a way that leaves you feeling calm and content
