About Me
Hi, I’m Natalie!
I grew up in a cluttered household. Keeping the house tidy was difficult, but I learned as I got older. Grandma’s house was equally untidy, and held decades worth of collections, memorabilia, my uncles’ and mom’s old stuff, and my late Grandpa’s things.
My grandmother developed Alzheimer’s, and she wasn’t able to take care of herself or her home. My mom didn’t notice my grandmother’s mental decline in time to help grandma sort, prepare, and move to assisted living, so my uncles came to sell, auction and clear out grandma’s house.
I was devastated when I arrived at Grandma’s and everything was gone. All but a few of Grandma’s belongings were sold in the estate sale or donated, along with anything else that I may have wanted. I felt confused, guilty, angry and left out of these very important decisions. My family bickered about the whole process as many of them didn’t agree with what was done. These old wounds are still present today.
Through the years, my talent for organizing has grown into a passion and purpose. I help folks move through the process of letting go slowly, so they’re not left with the aftermath of devastation, and so they can do the best for themselves and their loved ones… before it’s too late. I, too find it immensely rewarding to share in this incredibly healing transition, where the after effects often yield more gain than anyone could imagine.
