Episode 26 - Bringing Peace Through Organization: Laura from Up Closets

Welcome to Episode 26 of the Good Neighbors of Texas Podcast! In this conversation, I sit down with Laura, owner of Up Closets in Bastrop, a custom closet and home-organization company transforming the way people live — both in their homes and in their minds. Laura shares how clutter affects mental health, why organization can create a sense of peace, and how her 40-year career in software project management surprisingly prepared her for designing personalized, functional spaces. From closets and pantries to garages and home offices, Laura brings clarity to the places that often hide our greatest chaos. We also explore her journey into entrepreneurship, the joy she finds in meeting neighbors, and the life lessons that shaped her business philosophy. Whether you’re craving more order in your home or inspiration for your own career pivot, this episode is packed with insight, warmth, and practical wisdom. Tune in and meet a neighbor who’s helping Bastrop breathe a little easier — one organized space at a time.
