About this episode

Would you consider yourself an organized person? What about those with whom you live with?

In the hustle and bustle of life, households frequently face daily stress, financial hiccups, and time crunches which are often aggravated by a lack of organization in the home.

Professional organizer Nikki Boyd joins us to talk about communication as the ultimate organizing tool for households and well as hacks for keeping your home beautifully organized.

You will learn...

  • ways to communicate with those you live with to ensure a more harmonious household flow
  • 2 places in one’s home that tend to cause stress
  • hacks for organizing your house and making it feel like a sanctuary

Remember: your home should feel like a vacation from the outside world. Why wouldn’t you make it into a place that feels rejuvenating?
