Home Organizing for Beginners: Organizing, cleaning and time management strategies
You’ve tried everything to get a clean and organized home, but nothing seems to work for you and you really feel like you’re failing at this whole mom and wife thing because of it! You’ve downloaded all the cleaning checklists, you’ve bought cute organizing bins and organizing baskets, you’ve spent so much time getting your home organized. But nothing has helped simplify your life or create the peaceful home you desire. Busy mom, I’m here to tell you that this is NOT your fault. The problem is that cookie cutter home organizing, cleaning and time management solutions don’t take you, your family or your current season of life into consideration. Not even a professional organizer coming into your home can do that! Hi! I’m Tammy. I’m a busy wife and mom with a household to manage and business to run along with coaching volleyball and being on staff at my church. For most of my kids infant to tween years I experienced debilitating self doubt in how I managed all the things at home and work because of the perfection our society seems to expect of us as moms. After recognizing that my home wasn’t the peaceful home I wanted it to be because I was pursuing perfection, I began to research and make changes. I learned that the true solution was to put myself, my family and my current season of life at the core of how I managed my home. We shifted our home organizing, cleaning and time management systems to reflect what would work best for us. I’m here to share with you how you can make this shift too. Welcome to the Home Organizing for Beginners podcast. In this podcast you’ll get tangible and simple instructions about home organizing, cleaning and time management. Instructions that keep you, your family and your current season of life at the core. Let’s shift the chaos into calm by working together.
