Declutter Your Life: Make Space for What Matters

Kathi Burns definitely found her calling as a professional organizer. She has been helping others eliminate clutter for over 17 years, has written an entire book on the subject, hosts a weekly podcast called Organized and Energized, and is even more enthusiastic about eliminating clutter to create more freedom than she was when she started.  Once I learned that Kathi had been a travel writer who literally lived out of a suitcase and that she has also lived on a boat, I knew she was a bona fide expert in doing more with less.  This conversation was both informative and fun, because I know quite a bit about productivity, but learned so much from Kathi about the benefits of tackling our problems with paper.  Addressing our paper piles is an easy way to create more order in our environment and eliminating them frees up both space and energy, reduces distractions, and increases clarity. We all have better things to do than spend an average of 3 hours a week searching for things, which is one of the eye-opening facts Kathi shared in this lively conversation.  After implementing her Get It Gone system, Kathi promises her clients that they can find anything they need in 30 seconds. How’s that for a value proposition?  So, if you’re ready to listen and learn from this self-proclaimed Paper Wrangler, and go from piling to filing, let’s jump right in!  What you’ll learn: Kathi’s 5 category paper organization systemThe 3 main saboteurs of being organizedLetting go is a muscle that needs regular exerciseLess stuff = more clarity + fewer distractions Mic Drop Moment:  “Paper weighs more than anything else, both physically and psychologically.” Kathi Burns, CPO  If you’d like to connect with Kathi Burns, CPO Webinar: www.getitgoneformula.com/webinarBook: https://amzn.to/3v4svSMPodcast: https://apple.co/3Ey7gfwInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/organizedenergized/Is there a gap between where you are and where you want to be?  Do you know why?  Take the quiz and get your personalized result, and what to do about it! What’s Holding You Back?https://bit.ly/whyb-quiz Thinking about working with Diann? If you need the focused attention on your business & life that is only available through 1:1 coaching, click here to schedule a free 30-minute consultation with Diann to see if her 12-week private coaching program is right for you. Free Consultation for 1:1 Coaching Instagram: https://bit.ly/DWC-Instagram Before you bounce, don’t forget to leave a review of The Driven Woman Podcast, I’d love to read it on a future episode!    Apple: https://apple.co/2BZDFzcAndroid: https://bit.ly/TDWE-podchaser Don’t forget to join us next week for Episode #105 when I return with a solo episode called “Therapy or Coaching: What’s the Difference?” One of the questions I am asked most often in my interviews on other podcasts is how to know which type of professional to hire when you feel stuck and need help to move forward.   Because I was a licensed psychotherapist and also trained and supervised therapists before being certified as a coach, I have an opinion (or three)  on this topic.  Join me next week, on Tuesday, May 10th! If you haven’t already, please follow/subscribe to The Driven Woman Podcast so you won’t miss a single thing!
