It’s often said that the only sure thing in life is change. Whether it’s a new baby, a death in the family, or something in between, it frequently leads to the need for new ways of organizing the home, the workspace, or the schedule. This month’s Professional Organizer Blog Carnival is filled with insight and practical tips to help you and your clients manage the transition.

What makes this month’s Blog Carnival stand out is the number of participants who have shared their personal experiences with transition, including Janice Simon who is joining us for the first time this month with her post, Empowering Yourself. Please join me in welcoming Janice!

As you read the various posts, be sure to connect with the participating bloggers and let them know you found them through the Professional Organizers Blog Carnival.
