Are you feeling overwhelmed and defeated by the clutter in your home? Have you lost yourself in motherhood, putting everyone else’s needs ahead of your own? Is your home in a constant state of disarray leaving you feeling guilty and disappointed with all that’s still left to do at the end of the day? Are you so busy focusing on what others need and taking care of everyone else that you go days without showering? Do you feel like you never have the right things to wear, so you just wear whatever is easy and still fits even if you know it’s not flattering on your mom-bod? Do you have a closet full of clothes you never wear, because you don’t know how to dress yourself for mom life, so you let your kids dress better than you do? Are your kids (or your hubby) wearing clothes that are ripped, stained, or just don’t fit, because there’s no system for removing items that no longer work making it impossible to keep up with the laundry?
Well, I am here to help! As a mom of 4, I realize how quickly things can get out of control, and how important it is to have systems in place so that when life gets busy, we don’t let it overwhelm us. Let’s dig through the clutter and make space for the things that are really important! It’s time to let go of the things that are holding you back and keeping you from being the mom you’ve always wanted to be!
After conquering the clutter and finding freedom from the chaos in my own life, I started helping friends and family, and have since become a professional organizer and capsule wardrobe stylist, functional home designer, and clutter coach! And I am here to teach you everything I know about how to create beauty from the chaos in your mama life!
Inside this podcast, I teach you how to simplify, organize, and optimize your home, wardrobe and workload. I will teach you how to make simple changes that have a big impact on how your home functions and how it makes you feel! Share tips and tricks on how to style yourself and your home, get organized with simple systems, and manage the sometimes overwhelming stresses a mama has in her every day life. Getting organized is about decluttering the things that are inessential, finding ways to simplify the process, and making space for the things you really value. You can be stylish, your home environment can be serene, and you won’t have to scream. ❤️

Hey Friend!
I have to apologize to my children on a daily basis for mixing up my priorities. I can get so distracted with the things that I forget why I'm doing what I'm doing! So this year, I plan to get my priorities in order!!

Hey Friend!
I don't know about you, but I can really put things off around my house sometimes. You know, like cleaning under my bed, or going through the linen closet, or putting fuel in my car. Shhh! Don't tell my husband I parked it on empty again! LOL
Well, this last month, my kitchen has really been through a lot. I was out of town, so I prepped meals for the entire week so they would have something nutritious to eat while I was away. My children were home for weeks cooking and cleaning, and putting things in cabinets and drawers all willy-nilly. Stuff was spilled in the fridge I had just cleaned out, and the pantry was a mess too.
I knew I needed to take some time this week to put things back together, and I am so glad I changed up my morning routine, because this little change gave my the focus and motivation to take on this big task in just a few hours!
Having a well organized and clean kitchen makes me feel like cooking too! I just feel more in control of my home when the kitchen is clean and tidy. I feel more peaceful and accomplished at the end of the day. What about you?
HUGS,
Jenn

Hey Friend! Happy Holidays!!!
I just love this time of year. The gift giving, getting together with so many of the people I love, the cookies and delicious food, the relaxed schedule, the sparkly lights! It's just the best!!
But when all the Cele brating is done, it can feel like we just made a big mess of almost every room in our house! So by the time New Year's rolls around, I am sooo ready to pack it all up and get all the decor and mess put away. As I start putting things away, I always make a declutter box and pull out the things I no longer like/want/use. It is always better to let that stuff go to someone else than to keep it piled up in a closet somewhere. Bless someone else with your "mess"!!
I've only got a few spots left for the season, so book yours today!

Hey Friend!
I had so much fun helping this young lady makeover her room! I know kids spaces can feel really overwhelming sometimes, and I also know WHY they feel that way... It's because when we don't declutter consistently, they end up with so many different categories of toys and things that don't really fit in the storage areas we have designated for their things. In other words, they can quickly outgrow their space when we keep things that no longer fit, don't work, or they just aren't interested in anymore.
No matter what age we are, we still outgrow our things. Let's be mindful of that and when we are in a space that feels like it may need to be on our to-do list soon, just grab a few things we have outgrown, and let them go. Maybe they need to go in the trash, or maybe they need to just go to a new home. Either way, your space will feel better, and you will be thanking yourself for taking care of even just a little bit of it now rather than letting it pike up even more.
Don't let all the stuff keep you from your life! Book an SOS Call today! I'm here to help!!

Hey Friend!
This episode has been a long time coming! Every kitchen in every home is used differently, and in most homes, even the basics change seasonally, so we are constantly adjusting our pantries to make them work for the current season and how they are being used with our current groceries.
In this episode, I share how I make decisions about what to keep where in the pantry and when I find using containers or baskets to be the better way. I also share several of my favorite containers and how I use them. You can find photos of pantries I have organized as well as my own pantry in the Facebook group.

Hey Friend!
I see so many homes with pantries full of food and all the kitchen stuff, so when I get invited in to organize them, I get so excited!! This client had so much wasted space in the pantry, with the small wire shelves, so when we got the go ahead to replace them with wooden shelves, I knew this was going to make a huge difference for the family!

Hey Friend!
When I opened this book with my son this morning, I had no idea how much I needed to read that. It was so perfect for what I was already talking with my family about. Sometimes it's just the way we are looking at things that make them seem so awful. I challenge you to look for the good in every situation, and in every person you interact with and find a way to be a blessing in someone's life today!
As we go through each day, we can get so distracted by our never ending to-do lists, problems and challenges, or just the busyness of everyday and forget to check our thoughts. Did you know that even plants need to hear positive things? Our words and thoughts are so important!
When we look at the messes in our homes, many of us forget that others have children in the hospital that can't play with toys or dress themselves. We forget that our kitchens are messy because we have delicious food, and many around the world would love to have our problems! They would love to have a husband who works long hours and comes home exhausted at night, because theirs hasn't worked in years.
When we look for the bad things we are ALWAYS going to find plenty. We are human after all. None of us is perfect, myself included. BUT, when we start to look for the good, we start to see little, tiny things everywhere that we can be thankful for! Let's all work on looking for the best things in our homes and in those around us and saying out loud what it is we see.
We can all use a compliment and praise every day, right?

Jenn

Hey Friend!
I didn't cook for 10 years, but when I became a SAHM, had my 3rd child, and had another child diagnosed with ADHD the same year, I not only started to cook most of our meals, I started to remove the not so good for us ingredients too! It took years to perfect, and I still get in ruts where I only make the same few meals until we are all tired of them. But this system for grocery shopping and meal planning has made it completely stress free!
If you try this for your family, I would love to hear your staples and favorite meals! How do you keep your meals from becoming boring? And Friend, if you are stuck in a rut and just need some ideas, come join us in the Facebook group and ask your questions in there, OR book an SOS call so we can get you unstuck!
I'm here for you, friend!

Hey Friend!
As a mom, it often feels like there is always more to do than is humanly possible in a day. It can feel so defeating waking up day after day with piles of laundry and/or dishes waiting to be washed or put away. I have totally been there!! Here is how I stopped waking up with yesterday's dishes in the sink, and got rid of the mountains of laundry for good!!!
If you or someone you know is stuck in a cycle of mess, make sure to share this episode with them, and join the Facebook group. If you are ready for sos real change, book an SOS call today, and let's fix it!!
