organizer interviews 2020

One of the most popular features on Your Organizing Business is when I interview a professional organizer or productivity consultant about their business. Everyone seems to love reading about the different paths others have taken towards starting and building a career in this field.

    You have ALWAYS been so supportive of the organizing community, Janet. I love these interviews, and I keep thinking I need to do something “interesting” to make it worth your while. 2021 will be my 20th year in business, so perhaps it’s the year to step up. 😉 In the meantime, thank you for sharing out colleagues’ great stories.

      And YOU have always been supportive of me! Julie, I would love to interview you, any time you’re ready.
