Your home is your sanctuary

Your home, whether a sweet studio or a sprawling complex, is your own personal sanctuary away from the hustle bustle of the world. It's a place for you to feel nurtured, respected, inspired and loved. It's where you dream, plan and recharge. 

So how do you do create your own personal sanctuary?

By doing a little exploration into who you are. Creating your home oasis involves being honest about what makes you feel good. Just because you grew up with something doesn't mean it fits who you are now. But it might. We'll explore so you can know what really pleases and supports you.

Make room for your soul

It may sound extreme but decluttering makes room for your soul that's being squeezed out by the chaotic noise of clutter. Your home is where you regroup, think, chill, ponder, plan, socialize and live. If you can't find what you're looking for or have stopped using a closet, drawers or an entire room because it's jam-packed and scary to go in there, you're not just short-changing your space; you're short-changing your life. 

In music, it's the rest note that creates the sounds you love. This is not just poetic; it's a fact. The same is true for the space you live and work in. Empty space is a requirement to flourish.

I can help you make a plan for how to tackle that thing you've been ignoring, that monstrous pile where you don't know where to begin. I adore this work that some people dread — and I'm really good at it. I love clearing out what's in your way and then organizing what you use. You won't believe the freedom, joy and renewed energy you get as a result.

Honor what you've got

I love helping people recreate their spaces with what they've already got. One person said I made his place feel like his own Bed & Breakfast. Score! 

From paint colors to accessories and the things that really speak to your heart, besides basics like chairs and key furniture, having a home that welcomes you is one of life's fundamental experiences for fulfillment. 

What if you and your partner want different things?

Well, that's where negotiation comes in. It's part of being a team and it'll help you both get to know each other better to create a place that serves both of your needs. You might each create a getaway of your own while shared spaces are a bit different. Or you may find that you're ready to embrace something different. This experience is important for sharing a life together and it can be so much fun.

Creating your home sanctuary will support you through everything life will inevitably throw at you. I love helping you create that supportive home base you deserve. 

BTW, nothing will let you get to know a person deeply like going through decluttering with them. You'll learn their habits, hobbies, how they react to challenges, what lights them up, what they ignore and much more. It's an incredible experience.
