Have you ever wondered why some people can be haunted by a sink full of dirty dishes - and others walk right past it without even noticing it? Is it simply a matter of habits? Or does personal play a bigger part than we give it credit for? In this episode Laurie Palau from SimplyBOrganized.com shares how she uses the Enneagram personality test to help her clients find ways to get organized based on their unique personalities. With greater awareness of unconscious motivators and tendencies, we can know ahead of time how to set ourselves up for success - and give ourselves grace for the ways that organization might not exactly come naturally. And because I know you'll want this recap, I'm going to share the 9 Enneagram personality types here: Type 1: The Reformer (perfectionistic and self-controlled) Type 2: The Helper (Caring, people-pleasing) Type 3: The Achiever (Success-oriented, driven) Type 4: The Individualist (Creative, sensitive) Type 5: The Investigator (Intense, cerebral) Type 6: The Loyalist (Committed, responsible) Type 7: The Enthusiast (Fun-loving, spontaneous) Type 8: The Challenger (Decisive, confrontational) Type 9: The Peacemaker (Easygoing, agreeable) If you're anything like me, you're immediately starting to identify not only your own type, but the types you see in your family and other close relationships. But hold up - before you start trying to crack the code on everyone else, Laurie recommends we first learn more about how the enneagram personality test can help us understand ourselves. Consistent with our Life Organized membership strategy, we are in a much better position to help others when we have first organized our own clutter - including the unfair ways we might be judging ourselves. So what do we DO about all of this? Get to know your personality type. Read through the different Enneagram types and see what feels like a fit. (Laurie finds that this can be more effective than taking a test.) Get even more clarity by asking yourself if you make decisions based on thought, feeling, or action.

How can we be intentional in choosing engagement or entertainment to meet our needs and align with our values?Engagement requires thought, encourages intention, is purposeful, sparks creativity, creates memoriesEntertainment is often single-use, requires your passive attention, is done for you, and requires someone else's creativityThere is a season for both, today be encouraged to be intentional about when you need engagement and when you need entertainment.

Are you a neat freak or are you clutter-blind? Does a sink full of dishes ever bother you or do you just pass by it as if you didn't even see it? You see, there's a connection between people's motivation based on their Enneagram type and how they respond to clutter, whether they are super controlling and averse to clutter, or clutter blind. In this episode, I'm joined by Laurie Palau, the founder of Simply B Organized, and she can help you clear the clutter for good. Laurie is also the host of the top-rated podcast This Organized Life and the author of the book “Hot Mess.” Laurie has been studying the psychology of clutter for several years and has recently been diving into how she can use the knowledge from the Enneagram to help people clear their clutter. Today, we're going to do an overview of all nine Enneagram types, the common pitfalls, and the things that people can do when it comes to clutter and organizing their homes and their lives. Knowing your Enneagram type can be extremely useful when it comes to organizing stuff around your house and your life – whether we're talking about the material/physical clutter, emotional clutter, or calendar clutter. Laurie points out that it's not about labeling people or labeling things, but it's important to be able to provide language where you can articulate and communicate what you do. Because a lot of times, we get frustrated with things since we don't have the language to articulate them. In this episode, you will hear: What is an Enneagram? Looking at the psychology of clutter The Enneagram image and its Christian roots Developing grace and empathy for other people How the Enneagram impacts your life How it allows you to understand other people better An overview of the nine types Subscribe and Review Have you subscribed to our podcast?

Getting organized can be especially challenging for neurodiverse people. Sometimes it seems as if our environments fall in either one of two extremes—everything neatly in place or everything in total chaos. It's like a battle of the OCD versus the ADD. But one woman's clutter might be another woman's “I'm okay with this!” We all have a unique pain point when it comes to organization and time management. Can't we slide along the spectrum instead of living in the extremes? How do we create a functional environment for ourselves within all of our stuff—one that reduces stress and overwhelm, and fosters productivity? And can we teach our kids to do the same? This week on the podcast, my guest is a fellow podcaster, author, and clutter expert Laurie Palau. With neurodiversity in her own family, Laurie has figured out a way to meet adults and kids where they are, by giving them strategies to tackle their unique issues with all types of clutter—both tangible and intangible. Clutter is really a symptom of something bigger, Laurie says. If we determine “the why of clutter,” we can take actionable steps to make our lives simpler and easier. Warning: You may have to dive deep into some emotions, like guilt and fear. But I know you can do it. If just the idea of getting organized freaks you out, listen in to our conversation for practical, tactical advice on where to get started. And for ways to communicate with your kids to help them manage their clutter too. (You'll never tell your kid to “go clean your room” the same way again!)

Whether you have a cluttered desk with paper or a messy email inbox (guilty as charged over here), it can affect your productivity, your mindset, and your career success.

Kids and life come with a lot of stuff which more often than not leads to clutter. Laurie Palau talks about not only the physical clutter that affects moms, but the emotional clutter and calendar clutter. All of these things lead to overwhelm and burn out if not managed properly. According to Laurie, the first step in managing clutter is to stop beating yourself up about having things out of place! Organizing, decluttering, and keeping our homes tidying is hard and something all of us struggle with so identify if you’re holding yourself to unrealistic organizational expectations. The key to starting to tackle your overwhelm is to identify the type of clutter you have is situational (new baby) or chronic (always buried in mail and paper) and what clutter pitfall you are experiencing. Then start small when beginning your organizational journey - pantries and bathrooms are great places to start because you don’t have to make a lot of decisions. Many of us don’t organize because we experience decision fatigue. Laurie shares so many great tips about clutter and organization and you can learn more about her and her methods on her podcast This Organized Life.

Raise your hand if you've ever felt like a hot mess. Okay, we're not going to out you like that. But just know, we've all been there. It can be hard to get organized - and stay organized! Luckily, there's help available to you... starting with this here podcast! We spoke with organization expert Laurie Palau of Simply B Organized about how to overcome those roadblocks to keeping tidy. Laurie has always been an organized woman, and it naturally led to a career where she can help others. But not all clients are the same: We all have different types of clutter and reasons for the never-ending messes. To get to the root cause, Laurie looks at clients through an Enneagram perspective. Similar to the personality-revealing powers of the Meyers-Briggs test or even astrology, the Enneagram can be helpful in understanding what's motivating us or holding us back. Growing from this, we can see people as having three main types of clutter: physical, emotional, or calendar. You may even have some combination thereof. Take the clutter quiz here to find out what type of mess stress you're facing! Laurie uses this information to come up with an organization plan that will work best for you and address your particular hang-ups. She also works with people who face clutter issues due to an event - anything from throwing a party to overcoming the loss of a loved one. Our interview ends with a few more special tips Laurie has about keeping things clean. Time limits and turning cleaning into a fun experience are just some of her tricks. Be sure to listen to the full podcast above. It's full of insight and a few laughs, and you'll be inspired to finally tackle those messes and get organized! Learn more about Laurie Palau at her website, Simply B Organized.

This week on BeREAL, Diana and Ednesha are joined by Laurie Palau from the podcast This ORGANIZED Life to discuss emotional clutter and the importance of being organized. Laurie Palau is the author of the book HOT MESS: A PRACTICAL GUIDE TO GETTING ORGANIZED, host of the popular weekly podcast, This ORGANIZED Life, and founder of Simply B Organized-a lifestyle company helping people live simply and work smarter. Her advice has been featured in national publications including Real Simple & The New York Times. Laurie speaks on the topics of clutter, parenting, and entrepreneurship. Her CLUTTER CLINIC™ is a nationwide workshop providing strategies to help your team, group, or organization reduce clutter at home or in the workplace. The episode begins with Laurie explaining the multiple forms of clutter that create stress in our lives. She goes into detail about physical clutter, emotional clutter, and calendar clutter. Palau explains how all three can contribute to a feel of unfulfillment and make life seem static. She then explains her five clutter pitfalls: procrastination, indecision, guilt, overwhelm, and time. All five pose a risk to an organized life, and she goes over how to combat each potential obstacle. After a quick break, the episode resumes with Ednesha asking Laurie about the “Pintrest Syndrome.” Laurie discusses how, sure, Pintrest photos look nice and are good sources of inspiration for room design, but they often aren't practical or easy to maintain. Laurie highlights how aesthetic is important in organization, but also, preservation is key. Don't strive for a design that will just add more stress into your life because of its need for constant maintenance. The episode concludes with Ednesha taking a few tips from Laurie and brainstorming how she will use them to design the backyard of her new place for the summer!

Challenges with planning and organization are common among kids with ADHD. It shows up with messy bedrooms, lost items, missing or never turned in homework, not putting things away, etc. The consequences of disorganization aren't just frustrating for kids, they're frustrating for their parents, too. In this episode of the Parenting ADHD Podcast, I'm talking with organizing expert, Laurie Palau of Simply B Organized. Join us as we discuss how everyone learns and processes differently, how to communicate with your child so they are clear on expectations and processes and open to hearing your suggestions, implementing routines to improve organization, and Laurie's top five tools and strategies for anyone to get and stay organized.
Disorganization is a common problem for kids with ADHD, and often a frustration for parents. Learn the strategies and tools to teach & support organization.

I think of organizational skills in a similar way to parenting skills. We are expected to “just know” how to do it! AND do it well! But how? How many of you were taught exactly how to organize your home? I just winged it and I’m sure you did too! It’s the same with parenting. We try our best to prepare but nothing can really prepare us for all that comes with raising another human being. My guest Laurie Palau is a master at organizing and at teaching PARENTS so we can teach our kids. She also teaches kids on how to be more organized (and there is no better time than right now!). You know when we say to our kids, “go clean your room!” Laurie explains that we need to be more specific so we can set our kids up for success. Does “clean your room” mean everything from vacuuming and dusting or does it just mean put your dirty clothes in the hamper? As you go about your day organizing and sorting, invite your kids to be a part of it and teach them how to do it. You can teach them that cleaning up is a part of playing! Let’s face it, most of us have so much stuff, and we can often get stuck because we don’t have a good process for organizing things. Laurie has so many simple and practical ways to get us organized. Listen in for some great tips to help you (and your kids) get more organized even during a global pandemic!

While the tactical sides of making our spaces more lovely and livable are important, there’s also a psychological side to why we have what we have and keep what we keep.

Clutter takes up space. Whether it is physical, emotional, or mental, clutter takes away the time and place that we would rather have to be more productive. Laurie Palau, the author of the book, Hot Mess: A Practical Guide to Getting Organized, sets us up for a more organized life as she motivates us to become more organized through her advice and tips. As a mother herself raising teenagers who also juggles being the host of the weekly podcast, This Organized Life, and the Founder of Simply B Organized, Laurie is very familiar with the struggles women have of trying to integrate multiple roles in their lives. She shares her own way of achieving work-life integration and keeping her time organized in the midst of it all. On the parenting side, Laurie lets us in on how she makes her kids stay organized – from parental controls to keeping their stuff. — Listen to the podcast here: A Mom's Practical Guide To Getting Organized with Laurie Palau I am going to be bringing you a very special guest, my organizing friend, Laurie Palau. She is going to come on and we're going to talk about everything from organization to raising teenagers. Welcome to the show, Laurie. Thank you so much for having me. Laurie is the author of the book, Hot Mess: A Practical Guide to Getting Organized. She also is the host of the weekly podcast called This Organized Life. She's the Founder of Simply B Organized where she speaks, teaches, and works one-on-one with clients to help them reduce clutter and increased productivity. Laurie's advice has been featured in the New York Times Parenting Section, Family Circle, and Home & Table Magazine. She can also be seen sharing tips on 6ABC and WFMZ in addition to other radio and podcast interviews. When she's not organizing the world, Laurie can be found at home in Bucks County, Pennsylvania with her husband, Josh, same as mine, two girls, two dogs. She loves coffee and Tito's Vodka. In her spare time, she is actively involved in St. Baldrick's Foundation, which raises funding for pediatric cancer research. We already knew that we had a lot in common, Laurie. I did not know that you have a husband named Josh like me and loved Tito's like me. Those are two things we did not discuss. I don't know which was the bigger shame. I think it's probably the Tito's. We met through another organizer, Jen Kilbourne I think the first time we talked on the phone and it's just one of those things when you meet somebody and you're like, “Where have you been my whole life?” I want to talk about your book. I want to talk about organizing. I love having other organizers on the show because although we are very similar, hopefully, there's another spin on something that the audience can know from you. I think you've been doing organizing for several years. As my day job, I'd be doing it for several years but like so many other people, it's something that you've been doing for a lot longer. I've had Simply B Organized. I started the end of 2008 and made it official. In 2009, a totally different landscape of the industry but I love it. Love the show?

This week we have our first international guest, Laurie Palau! She is our great friend and fellow Professional Organizer from the USA (yes we are using Z where we normally use S's today in homage to our guest today ;-)) Laurie is the author of the book HOT MESS: A Practical Guide to Getting Organized, host of the weekly podcast, This ORGANIZED Life, and the founder of simply B organized where she speaks, teaches and works one-on-one with clients to help them reduce clutter and increase productivity. We chat about the three categories she sees as causing clutter in our lives, her partner program and what she struggles within her home. We love that Laurie has the same philosophy as us that we want people to live in organised homes so that they can have the freedom to do the things they love to do and that brings them life.

Laurie Palau is an organization expert. She’s the author of the book Hot Mess: A Practical Guide to Getting Organized, the founder and CEO of Simply B Organized, and the host of the podcast This Organized Life. But she didn’t always know she’d become a clutter-cleansing guru. When Laurie was doing her undergrad at Rider college in Communication and Political Science, she thought she wanted to be a political speech writer in Washington. But late in her senior year, she took an internship with Rolling Stone Magazine in the Advertising department and fell in love with New York City. She decided to move to New York without much of a career plan, and worked odd jobs to make ends meet as she searched for her mystery dream job. Before finding it, Laurie began working as an Executive Recruiter, and stayed in the industry for about 15 years. Since then, she’s become a Board Member at Girls on the Run and discovered her passion for simplicity and organization. Today she works with clients and gives talks on overcoming the different types of clutter that hold people back. She also mentors and partners with other professional organizers to grow the Simply B Organized community. The post 102: How To Get Your Sh*t Organized w/ Laurie Palau, Simply B Organized appeared first on Time4Coffee.
