She is a fun, friendly, and creative Productivity Coach & Organizing Consultant at Smartworks! who shows you easy ways to get yourself organized – one pile at a time. She is a Certified Professional Organizer® – one of less than 12 in Canada!
Her background includes over 28 years in various administrative and office management functions, which was a great training ground for becoming organized. But that’s not her ‘claim to fame’ – it’s that she has struggled with organizing and time management herself.
“I love the idea of being organized and on top of things. That doesn’t mean I’ve always been successful at it though.
For most of my life, I’ve struggled with managing my time, my space, and my paper/information. I can’t honestly tell you I’ve got this licked yet … but I do work at it most of the time.
I’ve come to learn this is an ongoing process of learning, doing, adjusting … sometimes forgetting everything I’ve learned … and most importantly, never ever giving up. My life today is so different and much more balanced because I’ve figured out some simple ways to simplify my life, stay organized and get stuff done. I want to share this information with you.
I get how difficult this can all seem. I know the pain of that inner dialogue that’s telling you to ‘just get your act together,’ or ‘this isn’t rocket science, why can’t you just do it?’
Let me assure you … there is nothing wrong with you. You just haven’t learned it yet.
I believe your current state is just a dilemma that needs to be solved … it is not a character flaw. With a little bit of knowledge and a whole lot of support from me, I know you can become an ‘expert’ at being organized.”
