I received a gorgeous testimonial today from a client who has experienced what I can only describe as an amazing transformation in her life. Laura and I began our work together a year ago when she made the decision to step out from just "thinking about it" to actually organizing her home. I am so proud of her and the work she has done! It is humbling to read these words. I hope they inspire those of you who are blessed to read them.

"In January of 2009 I began renovations on my condo where I had lived for 3 years. My home was destroyed in Wilma and I live in a 1 bedroom condo in Deerfield FL. After everything was finished - New floors, painting, carpentry work, new light fixtures and a beautiful Entertainment Center - I was scanning Facebook and I noticed a picture posted of a before and after closet Selene had organized. Selene and I knew each other so I called her and asked her to come help me. She agreed and we began our work together.

And so in walks Selene with four blue bins and we began with the boxes on the patio that had been that way since I moved. KEEP, SELL, TRASH & DONATE - the three baskets got filled very quickly and at day’s end Selene would take everything away,

Little did I know the transformation that would occur during and since the completion of the de-cluttering of my home. Because I know where everything is I do not spend endless energy looking for the scissors, looking for my keys and pocketbook, my phone (most of the time it is around my neck), pens, paper, I think you get the picture. I grocery shop for only what I know will fit into the shelves and learned I did not need to stock up on sale items. Since everything has a place it is a quick job to get the house picked up before I go out so I always (or almost always) walk into a peaceful and beautiful room that welcomes me.

All this only and because of the talent and skill Selene has for this kind of work. It took many hours of being together to come up with the best solutions based on my living style and I could report back the next week whether or not what we accomplished the week before worked for me. Sometimes yes, sometimes no and Selene would help me find solutions that did work for me.

Selene was very firm sometimes and at others very compassionate about the feelings that go along with ridding oneself of things that probably someone else would throw away some day. As a result of the work she did for me three of my friends are her clients now and are in the process of de-cluttering. I have learned to appreciate all that I have tenfold over.
