FAQ (Must Read)
1. What is a spatial expert? I think I know what it means, but wanted to be sure. Great question! I have very strong visual spatial skills, which means I can look at an area and advise you on space solutions and how to arrange items in a way that feels really great. When I combine my visual spatial skills with my organizational skills, you end up with a high functioning area that you really enjoy…Watch out! You’ll be oohing, ahhing, and staring at your newly organized area with a deep sense of pleasure and pride.
2. My home is presentable, decent, even immaculate, to those who come into my home, but there are areas that are shameful behind closed doors and cabinets. Are you going to be freaked out or appalled when I show you my stuff? Absolutely not. In fact, you don’t even have to explain yourself to me. Let’s just change things, so you can stop thinking about it, being embarrassed by it, or being held back by it. I can work with you and help you get incredible results.
3. How big a mess are you willing to deal with? Ever seen the show hoarders? If your living conditions are to that extreme, like you can’t open your front door, then I’ll be happy to refer you to another expert that specializes in hoarding. I can help you with pile-ups, areas in disarray, and areas that just aren’t functioning as well as they could be. Let’s talk.
4. I’m planning to clean out and update areas in my home. Do you do interior design? I design closet plans and help you figure out the best placement for items in your home and office. However, I do not actually help select tiles, floors, paint colors, etc. Sure, I can offer my opinion, but that’s not my area of expertise.
5. I am in the process of remodeling areas in my home, but as I’ve started emptying the rooms I have a big mess on my hands. There is stuff all over my house and I’m overwhelmed. Do you help people in this situation? Yes, I do help people in this situation. As a matter of fact, remodeling/updating/moving is a top reason my clients contact me. They have the desire to make changes for personal and professional reasons. This transition gives them the push they need to really pull their things out and take a look at what they have been holding onto. Often, the amount of items in their space shocks them. It’s an exciting, yet overwhelming process for many people.
6. I have clutter, but what’s the big deal if no one can see it? You have no idea how much clutter is affecting you. Depending on the amount of clutter in your home it can have small or huge energy drains on you. These drains add an unseen weight to your body. Clutter zaps your energy whether you are conscious of it or not. When you are in business, then to achieve higher success you’ll want to consistently feel your best, as well as, use your time wisely. Your environment can affect your ability to reel in clients with even more confidence and ease.
7. Can you do this for me while I do something else? I just don’t have time. That’s a big fat no. You have to be part of the process – and you’ll be glad that you were. I can guide you to make decisions, accomplish one task after another, and teach you organizing skills that you can use for a lifetime.
8. I barely have time to brush my teeth. How am I going to have time to organize my home? You have time to do the things that don’t overwhelm or scare you. You have time to check your email. You have time to talk on the phone. When we work together, we’ll make organizing tasks manageable, so you have time to do that, too.
9. Why hasn’t my life changed? I already spent a lot of money on life coaching and business coaching. Why will this be different? No matter how many self help books you read, self development or coaching programs you participate in, things are not going to miraculously change in really big ways if you aren’t making changes in your space to support your vision. Instead they pretty much stay the same. Your environment truly is a reflection of what’s been going on with you – possibly from being busy or maybe from not being really clear on what you want to happen in your life, or entertaining a fear of what life will be like once you can’t use the “after I get my home in order” excuse from holding you back. You can move your business and life forward by clearing out & streamlining your physical space. It’s very powerful stuff.
10. What will I get out of organizing my home besides it looking better? You probably already know the answer to this, but I’ll tell you anyway. It will be easier to clean, your self confidence will instantly be boosted, you’ll feel in control, calmer, inspired, healthier, and happier. Life will be simpler, easier, and you’ll think more clearly. You’ll be open to more possibilities. I really could go on and on. The visual results are just a bonus.
11. I can do it myself, why should I hire you? That’s easy. How long have you been saying you would get it done? I didn’t hear your answer. Say that louder. If you still think you’re gonna do it yourself without hiring someone, you may very well be fooling yourself. No one can see their own stuff. (I know, that may sound strange, but it’s soooo true.) Trust me, if we’re the right fit, then I’m your missing link. I can guide you to get it done yourself. This is one investment that has huge returns.
12. I would hire you in a split second if you lived locally. Is there a way to work with you besides in person? Yes! Get exclusive private phone coaching from me. Occasionally, I offer group programs – they get announced to everyone on my email list. If you prefer privacy and 1-on-1 attention, then exclusive phone coaching may be perfect for you. You are welcome to schedule a complimentary phone session and let’s talk. I’ll be happy to tell you which service is perfect for you based on your specific situation.
13. I know I can physically do it myself, but I get overwhelmed and feel like I’m just re-doing the same thing over and over again. I want someone to help me figure out what to do so I stop wasting my time and energy. Will private phone coaching be right for me? If you can physically do the work yourself, then YES, it’s for you. Don’t think this is a lesser solution. My phone consultations have tremendous results and are highly effective. If you have the flexibility to meet with me by phone during the weekday, and you can communicate via email in-between your private phone sessions, then phone coaching is perfect for you. I do require plenty of pictures of your space, so I can effectively & efficiently guide you through the process.
14. I need physical help de-cluttering my home, do you provide in-person services? For the past 8 years, I’ve worked in-person with people. (Actually way longer than that!) I’ve transitioned into providing coaching programs so I can help more women across the world step up & go after what they want. I rarely provide in-person services at this time. You are welcome to contact me and try to convince me to work in-person with you. You never know…I may just say yes! Contact me anytime.
15. How early or late do you schedule sessions? You’re gonna want me at my best. Warming up to the day is my style. I practice what I teach you in the “You First” method. It sets the tone for my entire day. You’ll get me when I’m raring to go by mid-morning.
16. Is my home just going to get back to the way it was? Is it going to be like getting a haircut? It grows back and I can’t cut it myself. We’ll be putting systems in place to make it much easier to keep up and maintain organization in your home and office. You can keep it up. It’s going to be so much easier!
17. Is your home spartan and spotless all the time? No. Daily “messes” appear. I’ve got kids and a husband! Plus, I love making messes. They don’t generally stay around for too long. I’ve created great habits, systems & routines that work amazingly for me. PLUS, it results in higher productivity & inspired focus which is crucial for running a profitable business while experiencing a happy, peaceful life with plenty of time to play and relax.
