"Although Kate and I work together on organizing my home for just two hours per week -- with no…read moresmall portion of that time spent sharing aloud my current state of mind -- I never cease to be amazed by how much we accomplish! Whether it be organizing a drawer, a closet, or a cupboard; rearranging furniture; or transforming the purpose of a whole room, my time with Kate is always a joy for me, full of laughter and poignant moments alike. I love her gentle approach: her thoughtful questions about my goals always allow me to discover some possibility I'd never considered (as opposed to her telling me what to do); her simple suggestion of a tiny baby step I might take (which always leads to me feeling inspired to take even more steps); and never, ever, any pressure. The paradox in working with Kate is that her loving acceptance of failure has meant that failure is impossible."

Working with Rachel is a delight! We have referred her to many of our members at Pursuit Concierge…read morefor a variety of projects. From move-outs to move-ins, pantries to closets, small spaces to entire homes. She's very responsive and communicates really clearly and professionally. Recently, we worked closely with her on a huge project. Our mutual client was having their floors refinished while they were out of town. She helped move everything into boxes and ensured they were moved back to their original locations after the work was complete. One of the best things about Rachel is that she's able to work solo. Not everyone has the time or desire to do the organizing themselves - they'd rather have someone else just make the magic happen. With just a few thoughts on the desired end goal, Rachel can run with it and make sure your space is transformed. She's an incredible resource to have in our network and we'll continue to refer her to our members when the need for a space refresh comes up!

She is a superhero and an inspiration, for sure! Her coaching as we went along to de-clutter was invaluable. Her kindness and non-judgmental demeanor really set our anxieties at ease.

Brief overview:…read more Melinda is wonderful. She is thoughtful in her approach with great ideas about organization and a strong work ethic. My life has changed dramatically for the better after my time with her. Organization is well worth it and getting support makes it easier and quicker. We organized my entire apartment from Kitchen to my under the bed storage! My experience has continued past my time with Melinda and I've been able to use her expertise to start organizing my garage. If you're on the fence about getting an organizer to help you, get off the fence. I feel worlds better about my space and the organization is sustainable and will increase my home experience for years to come A bit longer of a review for those of you who want to understand the full experience I had with Melinda. Some facts, I live in less than 550 sq/ft with multiple cats. I'm not inclined to hoarding but definitely keep stuff. I'm handy and more than capable of doing organization. I am not capable of doing organization well, which became super apparent after my experience with Melinda. The process: - It starts with a phone call but I didn't know how long to book Melinda to complete the work. After a discussion and video call, she recommended 20 hours, which I scheduled. I'd be lying if I didn't look around after booking and think, "is 20 hours too much?? How could it take that long." But Melinda's pricing can account for this problem. More importantly, we didn't need to because it took just shy of that much time! She nailed it. - The first day we got everything out and purged...and purged...and sorted...and assessed. It was awesome. Melinda isn't pushy and presents the stuff you have in a neutral manner asking questions about it's use and need (or even emotional attachment). - Throughout the day, she sends stuff to purchase for organization. It's all optional and up to you. None of it was overly expensive though your space will likely determine the need for purchases. I went a bit all out and it cost me about $400 in shelves/cubbies and other items. Most were individually fairly priced and some I upgraded. I chose to spend another $200 on items after we were done. Ever single penny was worth it and there are ways to do it cheaper or more extravagant. - Day 2 was more purging while the organization starts. Her systems were discussed with me before anything started and Melinda geared the process towards what works For me! She quickly adapted to organizing different areas of the home - The final day finished up the organization followed by a discussion of what was left to do. At this point, I made the decision to stop at the agreed upon 20 hours but could have scheduled her for another 3 hours but I didn't have the things I needed to be productive. One last plug: Before booking Melinda, I found myself thinking that organizing my home and garage was something I could do myself. It seemed easy, something I would get to, something on the list for a rainy day. That attitude lasted for 3 years and the organization wasn't done. In 3 days, my world changed and I instantly wondered how different my life would have been in the previous years had I hired Melinda back when I moved in. The suggestion: If you're thinking about organization (you are because you've read this far) stop thinking about it and just do it. And if you do it, you won't be unsatisfied by Melinda.

Melinda is willing to dig in and work with you to make something overwhelming feel lighter. I highly recommend her.

Amelia encouraged recycling/upcycling/repurposing of our existing furniture whenever possible, which saved us loads of money. She even took me to consignment stores for pieces I simply couldn't find in home. She was able to envision a layout that I couldn't, and now we simply love our home. We hosted ~20 people in our 1000 sq ft. home on Saturday, and they all raved about it. She won't waste your time, doesn't beat around the bush, yet still hears all your needs/desires for the space.
