What is a tidying festival?
Once you have made the commitment, we will embark on a once in a lifetime event in which you thoroughly tidy ALL of your personal belongings, in the right order, choosing to keep only what sparks joy for you. After the decisions are made, we will organize in a way that is functional for you.
Why does Marie Kondo encourage tidying festivals?
This is the best way to stop the cycle of clutter in one fell swoop. You have the opportunity to observe what you truly value and what types of items are no longer serving you. When you have completed all of your categories, you can focus on what brings you joy and enjoy the lifestyle you envisioned! The effects can extend into all aspects of your life.
How long does it take to complete a tidying festival?
It can vary depending upon multiple factors. It depends on the volume of your belongings, the pace that you feel comfortable, and the amount time you are willing to dedicate to tidying sessions. We can work weekly, biweekly, monthly, or on a compressed schedule if needed. We will work together to meet your goals or timelines.

-Accountability with scheduled session
-Physical help and emotional support, no judgment
-Resources and guidance on storage
-Improved efficiency for ADHD clients
Do I need to purchase organizing containers and supplies?
This really depends on each individual person. When we are significantly decluttering, the need for additional containers is minimal. We can reuse items you already own, as well as simple boxes you may already have. Ultimately, all storage is considered temporary until the end of the tidying festival, as more storage space may open up as you continue to work through each category. If you would like to purchase new storage items for a particular category, it is recommended to at least wait until you have fully decluttered that particular category. This helps you to know exactly what and how much you need to store.
