The Speak Organized Podcast

Professional Organising in the UK - PART 1 - What it takes | How it’s different than the US

This episode is for all my Speaker Fam in the UK! I’ve connected with a healthy handful of you over the years and so I wanted to share more about the professional organising industry from your perspective. Since I am clearly about as American as it gets I’ll have my lovely podcast guest today do most of the talking. She is a UK based organiser and life coach who is going to be breaking down the main differences between the UK organising industry and others across the world, the difference in client expectations and preferred services, and lots of tips you can follow if you’d like to become an organiser in the UK. There’s even a separate association you can join there to learn more from other pros and network with them.

Can a Single Mom Successfully Start an Organizing Business?

Today’s episode is one that you all asked for so I am making it happen. My guest today has a pretty incredible story of how she overcame some seriously extreme obstacles with her health, being a single mom, and never having been a business owner before. She punched any fear that she rightfully had in the face and now runs a full time professional organizing business, doing what she loves every day, connecting with her community, and spending time with her son on her terms. If you’re in a similar situation or facing other fear factors when it comes to starting a professional organizing business, this episode of The Speak Organized Podcast is a MUST watch!

Downsizing & Getting Prepared for Retirement

Today’s podcast guest is Darlene Tripp of Hello Darlene based out of Ontario Canada. She specializes in life transitions, downsizing for seniors, as well as something called Legacy Planning - which is not only very interesting, but also super important for us to consider. 
 
If you are of retirement age or have parents who are, everyone needs support in organizing and planning for end of life care and preparing for the potential of assisted living, etc. It’s not always something we want to think about but Darlene really works hard to normalize and humanize these topics. 
 
Her services offer folks a way to take care of themselves and their families by putting the essentials in place. This is an important topic that can help us all, whether we are entering that phase of life or helping a family member or client going through these transitions. It never hurts to be armed with resources and understanding to support those clients so I encourage you to stick around!

Working with ADHD Clients

As someone who works almost exclusively with ADHD clients, I want to share strategies that I’ve learned that help these wonderful clients find success in getting organized. Traditional organizing methods don’t always cut it and you both can walk away from sessions feeling defeated unless you have the right strategies in place. That is what we’re going to talk about today to make working with ADHD clients more effective.
