I love watching lifestyle programs and came across ‘The Living Room’ many years ago which I have grown to love … it was on one episode with Peter Walsh, internationally renowned declutter expert, that I clicked and said ‘I can do that’ … I can help, am organised, a good planner, have great eye for detail, can use space functionally BUT most IMPORTANTLY can communicate and innately relate to people … WITH a bit of courage, vulnerability, a need to bring in an income with a growing family and a focus on doing what I do best ‘helping people’ – The Declutter Project was born … over the years it has mostly been an educational platform on social media as I had a full-time career in education but it is time to put my energy into my passions and the TIME is now …
I am a mother of two, a stepmum of two, a wife of one (!), a sister, an aunty, a friend, a teacher of 21 years and have been on this planet for nearly 43 years … I have had immense personal growth over recent years and continue to work hard on myself to ensure I work to living my best life being my best self …
I get asked what I ACTUALLY do all the time or TOLD what is presumed I do all the time …
It used to bother me but now after helping clients and seeing their continued growth and clarity I am content with knowing I have helped …
If I was courageous enough I would call myself a life coach because I feel that I help in a wholistic manner that can positively impact my clients in many ways including minimising stress, reducing daily costs, understanding relationships, creating a home with function, purpose and beauty and to develop a better understanding of self and really define what the blocks, obstacles and/or triggers are for their cluttered living …
At the end of the day – I help create spaces and rooms for clients for their intended purposes that promote a more positive energy in the home or business. I assist clients to develop and maintain systems and habits to ensure the process in ongoing. I communicate in a way that digs that little deeper to ensure I have a good understanding on the WHY to ensure the process caters for where clients are at emotionally, mentally and physically…
My intention is to show clients what is truly possible and to provide the motivation, strategies and know how to get there…
No client or project is the same … some are more than ready to purge whilst others are deeply connected to their ‘stuff’ and need more patience, guidance and support …
I like to think I am very capable of reading people and communicating with them despite what walk of life … I have honed these effective communication skills in school environments over 20 years teaching and working with a diverse group of people …
My projects may involve decluttering, reorganising, cleaning, rezoning, rehoming, reusing, recycling, donating, selling, downsizing … the list really does go on. The project starts with YOU and what you WANT. We go from there …
