Do you remember the excitement of going back to school? That energy follows us into our adulthood because of the years of repetition AND the message of “get ready for back to school” is everywhere, in the stores, news, and social media. Now is the time to get your fall supplies ready. What are your fall supplies as an adult you may be asking? Well it's registering for Planning Day and preparing your mind to get a plan in place. You want to be productive this fall, right? Planning Day What is Planning Day? Thursday, August 21st, you'll spend 2 hours on a live webinar prepping for Planning day on August 23rd.  On Saturday, August 23rd, you'll spend 4 hours on a live webinar getting a solid plan in place. You'll look at your responsibilities, time constraints, any Golden Windows you may be anticipating, and goals you want to set for the next 120 days (4 months.) You'll look at week day time vs. Saturday time vs. Sunday time. Are there some new habits you've been wanting to implement? You'll look at your routines and slip those new habits into your day and try them out.  What to do first? You get a plan in place but where do you actually start? The Productive Home Solution will suggest what area of your home you will want to focus on based on the natural energy of this back to school/fall/holiday season upcoming. This is your 52 week guide to getting your whole house organized…but only 40 stations. You will spend more time at some stations that just one week.  Each station is a space in your home like your personal closet, bathrooms, bedrooms, storage and all the other spaces. However, if you have a space you are dying to attack, go nuts. Each space/ module is independent of the other modules. Tanya will be leading The Productive Home Solution™ club and there you will find a supportive community to do this with! We are also offering the Fall Productivity Enrollment Bundle! You will get your Planning Day, The Productive Home Solution™, AND the two year planner!! The Productive Home Solution™ is a lifetime membership.

This is what you need to know where you are going and over time that train of yours is going to pick up the pace and become productive.  Now, how dreamy would it be to get everything you will need for one whole year and not have to go back into the Organize 365® store to pick up something you are seeing in Planning Day or The Productive Home Solution™? That's why we have The Complete Home Organizing Bundle! You will get all three planning days, The Productive Home Solution™, The Paper Solution, Holiday Blitz Bundle, Organization is a learnable skill in paper back AND audio, the two year planner, and Embrace!!  You will save $700 and be set for the year.

Decide that you want to get organized and through Planning Day you'll find the time you need to get organized.  When you at least have a plan in place, when the unexpected happens, you won't be thrown off the tracks, you may just take a little longer getting to the next station. You will have systems in place! **Get signed up and then tune in, on August 15th, for a special webinar all about this Fall Enrollment or you can email customer service!

Is there anything I love more than planning? No! This was a fun set of questions to ask about planning, breaking down and attacking goals, and how to practice discipline that leads to organization getting completed so you can move on to productivity!  Integrating Home and Work Planning When I started Organize 365® I was focused on the energy of the home and trimesters made the most sense. When I started organization for work it made the most sense to plan quarterly since all businesses run quarterly to accommodate the tax schedule.  But in true Lisa fashion, I have listened to the masses and I agree, let's do all the planning at once. In December, Home and Work Planning Days will occur at the same time over a three day span. I suggested that you consider populating your slash pockets of focus, from both categories and include a few from home school if it applies. What do I mean? It will make more sense if you listen to the full episode. We are all trying to get #allthethings done and feeling like we are failing. I walked through a couple of solutions that could alleviate that feeling. At the end of the day make sure you are only focusing on those things that need to get done this week.  Be Portable As we are all trying to get it all done, consider these few things. What is the task and can it be portable? Is it in a bin? Throw it in the car. When you have idol time in your car, you can be productive. One favorite hack I shared was the Chromebook. There is a keyboard which I love and no need for wifi. It's always ready for you to check numbers, work on your side hustle, make updates on accounts, or pay some bills. One person who wrote in is just in a “weird phase” as she put it and I reminded her of the go bag. Make sure you are ready to be caught off guard. And in that bag you could have snacks and water for the unexpected event or the hunger you work up from working out of your car.  Good news, you can learn discipline too?  It's time for me to offer some tough love, “How bad do you want it?” Multiple people wrote in about “what if you aren't in the right energy”, “what if you plan but then you don't follow through”, and “unexpected events that throw you off.” Active parenting young kids is a whole other chapter to which I offered 6 valuable tips to you parents.  You have to do the work to get the results. You can't lose weight if you don't change anything and so you too can't get organized if you don't make a plan and then run that plan.  The Sunday Basket® will provide a plan for the week and Planning Day will provide a plan for the next 120 days. And The Productive Home Solution ™ makes your personal spaces work for you! Most of Planning Day is not about goal setting. Planning day is about looking at your time, how you are currently using it, and what do you want to accomplish? When you look at all aspects of your life you can see where you have time to get organized or complete a project. Remember to treat your spouse as a “nice to have.” I like being in charge and I like being “the flow.” I plan as though I have no one to help me. But when the opportunity presents itself for me to have help, I take it and delegate. I plan everything like it depends on me, but I pray like everything depends on God.

In this episode, I introduce you to Lisa P. who lives in Australia with one of her three daughters, her husband, 24 mini goats, 20 ducks, 20 chickens, 2 dogs, and 2 guinea fowl.  Lisa P. lives on a farm (could you tell) and has a cottage that she rents out like an Air BNB.  Lisa P. heard an interview with me and was attracted to my passion for systems and organization. When I started talking about jigsaw puzzles and then the Sunday Basket® Lisa P. thought, “You got me!”  Lisa started binging the podcast last year like 2 hours a day! Lisa had always been an organized person and had systems in place but she felt like they weren't working with each other. As a trailblazer among her peers starting a family first, she felt like she was always advising them. Now for the first time Lisa P had someone to look up to that had been down the road ahead of her and she could learn from the podcast, systems, and products.  We agreed that even though kids grow up and move out…the complexities of life don't go away.  It's like there's this significance of our active parenting years. So when her first flew out of the nest and the next followed very soon, she didn't know how to feel. But then, she claimed this next phase of life for herself! She got excited about making the spare room for her and her hobbies, she accepted cleaning isn't the most important thing, and she set a regular guilt free tea time to relax before the evening routine begins.  Lisa P. uses her daily routines like a flow chart. She has a list of priorities. When one gets by passed because maybe the cottage doesn't have guests checking in or it's a rainy day, she just continues down the list of daily responsibilities to be completed.  She explained her life as romantically chasing the energy of her year, her almanac.  Lisa P. has always had a passion for the seasons. After completing the Productive Home Solution™ she found the energies to match that of the Northern Hemisphere even though their seasons and school year is different. She loves how one energy pushes you into the next. It was so interesting to hear how the Australian year unfolds.  Lisa P. loves the Sunday Basket® because all the actionable papers don't go away each week. Sometimes you need to hold on to actionable paper for a month or two while it goes through whatever process. But it's nice to have the paper piles gone and a safe place that she knows where the papers are now. She also loves home Planning Day to figure out what projects will be top priority for her house in her flow chart. She has a Sunday Basket® for her “All Seasons Project” and a Friday Workbox® for the farm. She's learned the difference between clearing and organizing and that has quieted the negative self talk about her home management skills.  Lisa P.'s advice is, “The game changer is identifying what stage of life you are in, then start feeling ok about it.”  EPISODE RESOURCES: The Sunday Basket® Friday Workbox® The Productive Home Solution® Home Planning Day Sign Up for the Organize 365® Newsletter  On the Wednesday podcast, I get to talk with members of the Organize 365­® community as they share the challenges, progress, missteps and triumphs along their organizing journey.

I'm also embracing my "future self" vision - becoming a more present mother and business owner, allowing myself to be softer and more feminine in my approach.

You Guys! I was so excited to answer these questions. I love my hobbies so much!!  Right now, travel is a hobby I want to focus on. Greg asked me why I am taking these adult fieldtrips alone? It feeds me. I encourage my family to follow their interests and develop their skills within their hobbies. I am starting to pour into myself like I always have for my family members and I think everyone should do the same, especially the household manager.  Scrapbooking & Photos Disclaimer: I am a hands on scrapbooker. If you are looking for digital suggestions, I am not your guru. Creative Memories was one of the first direct sales companies I worked for. Anna and I discovered that her mom, Donna, was THE creator of the power layouts for scrapbooking specific to Creative Memories. I taught this system to all my customers and little Anna was the one counting all the chipboards that were going into the boxes that I had ordered!! There were questions about sorting, storage, getting started, and product recommendations.  I learned a lot about storage of photos, how the containers matter, and the books you place those precious pictures in matter too. I stand by Creative Memories to this day because of their quality and I am actually still a consultant with them!  The first thing you need to identify is why you want to scrapbook and then you can make an action plan from there. One lady said there were pictures everywhere and how was she going to get them organized quickly because she needed her guest room to be functional soon. I recommend a bulk sort at this stage. Start sorting by decade and go from there because it will take awhile to get all those pictures in albums anyway!  There is a whole section on photo organization in the Saving Your Story Photo Organization Program. Make sure you are journaling to capture why those pictures are important. And then I suggested a few ways you could document pictures quicker and have completed albums.  Books, Audio, and Journaling I don't journal too much but what I may consider journaling is summer time when I think about future ideas. And this is where Embrace came from. I think about the future and who I currently am and where I am going in my personal life and professionally.  I've shared that there was that time when I decided “If it was to be it was up to me.” And that was the catalyst for being mindful of my attitude and what I consume. I make sure to always be consuming content about influential people, presidents, inventors, and the like; this helps me to stay future oriented. Anna also pointed out how one of Organize 365®'s core values is the Power of Positivity. It's a focus for me and my business.  I am a life long learner and I love my books. I am such a compulsive book buyer that even when I couldn't really afford books I would buy them anyway I just can't help myself. I let Marie Kondo talk me into tossing out a bunch of books and boy do I regret getting rid of those books. I've realized I am not a minimalist and I love revisiting my books.  The best way for me to suggest some great reads is through the podcast. I spent a whole year recommending books. And I guess those are my top 52 recommendations. Take the time to live in your hobbies and fill your hobby cup as you fill everyone else's.  EPISODE RESOURCES: The Sunday Basket® The Paper Solution® Saving Your Story Photo Organization Program The Productive Home Solution™ January 2020 Book Reviews (You Tube) (check out the following 11 months for additional book reviews) Sign Up for the Organize 365® Newsletter  Did you enjoy this episode?

Fire in Our Peace: The Power of Nonviolent Resistance

Gaslit Nation

They want us to believe that silence is strength. That if we keep our heads down, the storm will pass. But we are the storm. And our storm doesn't need fists. It needs strategy, courage, and the fire of militant nonviolence. In the latest episode of Gaslit Nation, Jamila Raqib, the executive director of the Albert Einstein Institution, delivers a masterclass in radical defiance without a single weapon raised. Raqib doesn't just talk resistance. She teaches the art of war, the nonviolent kind, built on discipline, planning, and unshakeable conviction. She carries forward the torch of Gene Sharp, the quiet revolutionary whose writings, like From Dictatorship to Democracy, which the Gaslit Nation Book Club read in March, have armed movements from Serbia to Syria. His ideas are dangerous, not because they incite chaos, but because they illuminate how to take power back without bloodshed. And dictators fear that more than any rifle. This is militant nonviolence. It's strategic. It's disruptive. And when practiced with precision, it brings regimes to their knees. Blueprint for the Battle Ahead Raqib outlines a crucial truth: power is not monolithic. It comes from the obedience of people, workers, civil servants, police, students. Withdraw that obedience, and even the strongest tyrant collapses. Take Serbia. Take Bangladesh. The world keeps giving us proof that nonviolent action isn't weak; it's lethal to authoritarianism when wielded with discipline. These movements succeeded not because they were polite, but because they were strategic. Organized. Defiant. This is how repression backfires. Every crackdown becomes fuel. Every jail cell, every bullet, every propaganda campaign becomes a rallying cry, if activists know how to use it. Weapons of the Peaceful Warrior Raqib reminds us that art is a weapon. Culture is armor. Community is infrastructure. And technology is a battlefield. Whether it empowers or undermines you depends on how well you understand it. Movements rise and fall on logistics, not just slogans. Fear will always be there. That's normal. But as Raqib insists, fear doesn't mean stop. It means go smart. Fear is a compass, if it scares the regime, you're probably doing something right. Nonviolence is Not Passive. It's Precision. This conversation isn't about kumbaya. It's about battle-readiness. It's about studying the terrain of power, exploiting the cracks, and toppling giants with the slow, grinding force of disciplined resistance. Nonviolence doesn't mean surrender. It means refusing to give your enemy the war they want. It means winning on your terms. And in a time of rising fascism, digital surveillance, and global despair, we must turn to the tools that have worked, again and again. So study Gene Sharp. Listen to Raqib. Organize like your life depends on it, because it does. This is not the time for feel-good hashtags. This is the time for public education, mass mobilization, and strategic action. Nonviolent resistance is not soft. It's the hardest fight there is. But it's the one that wins. EVENTS AT GASLIT NATION: NEW DATE!

In this eye-opening conversation, Ukrainian historian and religious scholar Vladislav Haverlov reveals the shocking scope and calculated nature of Russia's deportation campaign targeting Ukrainian youth.His research with the Institute of World History at Ukraine's National Academy of Sciences and his work documenting war crimes with multiple humanitarian organizations exposes the brutal reality behind Russia's euphemistically labeled "evacuations." Since February 2022, Russian authorities have forcibly transferred thousands of Ukrainian children from occupied territories to Russia, with official counts identifying 19,546 deported children. Most alarmingly, only 1,366 have been successfully returned after three years of war.Children are taken by bus or train, processed through filtration camps & dispersed across a network of "temporary accommodation centers" throughout Russia. Many are deliberately sent to remote regions like Siberia. In these facilities, Ukrainian children undergo systematic indoctrination, losing their documents, language, and cultural identity. They are funneled into paramilitary organizations like "Young Army" where children as young as eight receive military training. Read more________Travel on International Mission, meet local leadership and work alongside them.

In this episode, I introduce you to Lindsey G. who has a blended family with three children with her current husband and 5 cats.  Lindsey found Organize 365® when she was searching for organizational podcasts. The Organize 365® message resonated with Lindsey so she started to binge the podcast.  After being a single mom for over a decade, it was a lot to all of the sudden have extra people in the house as their families came together. In Dec. of ‘23 Lindsey had decided to leave her job as a band teacher at a charter school and open her own music school. She also thought to herself “I don't have to be this busy. I want a new normal.” And that's when she went searching for podcasts to support her getting organized. Lindsey shared how much empowerment she feels from doing the Sunday Basket®. I was curious how she thought single parent life would have been if she had known about the Sunday Basket® then.  That led to a more in depth conversation about single women who are the parent, provider, and house manager.  I let out a little secret about a project we are working on in this vein, gotta listen to get the scoop! She wishes she'd learned then that she was worth the money and time investment. She also initially squirmed at the idea of routine structure. Now that she's made the investment, she has since realized routinely doing her Sunday Basket® frees up time and helps her to plan for creative time. She wishes she'd found the Sunday Basket® because as a single mom so she could have been much more efficient with her time.  Lindsey was vulnerable enough to share that she has bipolar. It is managed but she still has the high and low energy swings. The Sunday Basket® helps her to take care of necessary tasks during low energy and do extra tasks when she has extra energy.  Lindsey got the Launch Program to send her son off to college, and the Holiday Blitz to better plan November and December which she now sees as “one month.”  She plans for the things that happen each season, they aren't new things and they aren't surprising Lindsey anymore. It wasn't so much that she had an ah hah moment that something was organized as much as she notices her ability to maximize time. She has maxed out efficiency when running errands, planning her week, and even looking at her time in the pie wheels during Planning Day. Now instead of thinking “maybe I can make it all work” on a weekly basis, she plans her time, Mon- Fri and then Sat separately from Sunday, in Planning Day. With her understanding of the invisible load she can be much more intentional. She's thankful that she has ditched the “you gotta be busy to be important” belief. Lindsey has more peace, confidence, and surety that tasks will get done.  Lindsey's advice is, “Binge the podcast. Find the ones that resonate with you. Then get the Sunday Basket® and when you feel ready add on other products and systems.”  EPISODE RESOURCES: The Sunday Basket® The Launch Program Home Planning Day Sign Up for the Organize 365® Newsletter  On the Wednesday podcast, I get to talk with members of the Organize 365­® community as they share the challenges, progress, missteps and triumphs along their organizing journey. I am grateful that you are reaching out to share with me and with this community. You can see and hear transformation in action.

Then, identify the Interpretation Layer (what the facts mean).You'll get more clarity as to how you're viewing the situation and how you're defining the problem -- and possible solutions.

This is a common belief, but the truth is that you can organize your business in a way that is both simple and sustainable. You just have to find a place to start. It's easy to get overwhelmed when you're building a coaching business. You start with passion and purpose, but quickly get lost in courses and resources that just create clutter instead of building actual business skills.

In this episode, I dive into the importance of planning, even when uncertainty looms. Drawing from my experience coaching a client and working in retail, I emphasize that having a plan provides direction and makes adapting easier than starting from scratch. I break down three calendar blocking techniques: Specific time blocks (precise task scheduling)Large time blocks (broader time slots with detailed task descriptions)Flexible time blocks (adaptable scheduling around available time)The key is to avoid leaving your calendar blank just because you're waiting on potential commitments. Instead, I recommend proactively mapping out your day, considering potential client meetings or unknown variables. By planning around these uncertainties, you can maintain productivity and feel more in control. I share a practical example of how to approach a day with potential client scheduling, suggesting ways to allocate time effectively. This episode underscores that planning isn't about creating a rigid schedule, but about giving yourself a framework for success! Free Resources:Join 30 Day Calendar Blocking Blueprint and finally feel in control. ​Click here to join the next round. ​Are you a business owner making $100,000+ and still wearing all the hats? ​Click here​ to learn about my upcoming 12-week Outsourcing Mastermind.Are you an aspiring or newer business owner who needs some accountability and clarity on the next steps? ​Click here​ to join my 6-month accountability group - Simplify.

Is your calendar a mess? Are you running out of time to accomplish the most important tasks? If you ever feel like your week is one giant scramble of client calls, last-minute tasks, tending to fires, and wondering what the heck you're supposed to be doing next...you're going to LOVE this episode. I brought on Holly Haynes, a 7-figure business owner, productivity expert, and queen of batching, to break down exactly how she built her wildly successful business working only 8-10 hours a week (yep, seriously). She shares her signature CEO Week framework, how to create theme days, and why you absolutely need a “creative block” in your schedule. We also dug into: How Holly went from working a corporate job with twins in kindergarten to building a 7-figure business in just 5 years. The simple formula of CEO Week: theme days + a creative block + a CEO day. What happens when your tasks spill over into other days (hint: it's not the end of the world). The most common resistance people have when trying to implement theme days, and how to overcome it. Why your business should feel a little boring if it's working right (yup). How she strategically added team members to shrink her calendar, not stretch it. Simple ways she plans her days to avoid feeling scattered and overwhelmed. I also share where the resistance that comes up, and where I realized my boundaries had shifted, and how I was inspired to make changes.

Don't have kids? Not so fast, this is for you too. I use this every year for myself to get prepared for the 10 most productive weeks of the year that starts after Labor Day! This FREE Back to School Blitz will help you to better plan for the amount of time and money you need for getting the kiddos and or yourself ready for the next season of the year.  I offer this free blitz every year for you to take 5 days to think about your clothing, command center, your office supplies, personal grooming, and getting out the door.  It's been a year since your kids have worn fall clothes, I mean do they still fit? Or maybe you have a couple of favorites that could use replacing. I have a landing space that has everything I need as I am walking out the door in the morning like things I need for an errand or something I don't want to forget for the office, it's my command center.  I love office supplies!!!! You have heard me say it a million times and this is the time of year I like to replace office supplies that I have been making due or stocking up on duplicates. I love sharp scissors in all the rooms. If you notice your kids are stealing things from your bathroom, this is the time to consider what they need for personal grooming at this stage in their lives. And what would best serve your family members and yourself to make getting out the door more smooth? A morning checklist? A new purse or backpack?  The videos and printables in this free blitz will aid you in getting prepared for going back to school and being prepared to slide into the ten most productive weeks that follow Labor day!

Happy Monday!  I am constantly asking myself “Knowing what I know now, if I had to start all over again from scratch, would I still design these programs, products, and services the same way? Or would I do them differently? This summer I answered this question by saying yes I would do something different and the Organize 365® team confirmed my ideas.  Changes with the Sunday Basket®  The Sunday Basket® is a combination of your gifts, strengths, and orientation coupled with your life experiences and the people with which you do that. I have decided to add the weekly tear pad that you see me use to organize my week in the videos. The monthly tear pad will also be included. How inconvenient it is to get the Sunday Basket® but realize you need to go back into the shop to grab a few add on items. Now you don't. You will also get the pink, purple, green, blue tabs and the Sunday Basket® Bookmark.  Those are the product changes but I also decided to shift your mindset on the amount of time you will need to set aside each week for the Sunday Basket® which is 3 hours each week for roughly the first six weeks. You are learning a new skill set and watching the videos. You are no longer alone in this organizational fight and you have the Organize 365® community to help you iterate and improve the systems you are establishing.  Changes with the Complete Home Organization Bundle This 52 week course now includes The Productive Home Solution™, The Paper Solution, 4 Binders, 3 Planning Days, 2 year planner, Holiday Blitz Bundle, Embrace, Paper Solution Book, and Organization is a Learnable Skill book. It is a complete turbo charged bundle to again include everything you need to get your home 80% organized in a year without having to revisit the shop. (I explained why only 80% in this episode.) It is designed to help you eliminate the mental and physical clutter and get systems in place.  And again I decided to shift the mindset about how much time this is actually going to take you. I have been on a health journey and shared about how I have added practices into my week, devoting more time, but now getting the results I desire. And it's the same with this system. Ask yourself, “Are you willing to put the time in now, to live a completely different life a year from now? And for one year, you will now look at sections of your home and watch the videos that apply to your and your current phase of life. Might be the same house but you may need to start using it differently. Week one starts after Planning Day in August.  The holidays are a big deal that require a lot of time and planning. For two months, I want you to utilize the Sunday Baskets® from the Holiday Blitz Bundle. One is for the holidays and one is for taxes. You will delay everything else in your regular Sunday Basket® till January. These additional baskets will give you a place to cognitively offload so you can be present in and enjoy the holidays.  And I felt it necessary to include Embrace. Embrace is designed to help you reflect on how you formed the idea of what a household manager came to be, decide what you want to keep of that description, and then uncover what are you uniquely created to do with all of the extra time now that your life is organized.

I've answered questions about the invisible work we are all doing and today I am answering questions about the visible work we do. A good example of visible work is everything you would do inside of The Productive Home Solution™. I explained the evolution of the program from it's inception as 40 weeks One Home to the “exhausting” 100 day program where I realized not everyone has kids, to today The Productive Home Solution™. I have been refining this program for 10 years to help anyone be able to organize any home. It's a 52 week cycle of organizing spaces that matches the energy of the year. Yes, the energy changes throughout the year. Remodeling Elizabeth is getting ready to remodel her kitchen and wanted to know the best way to leverage The Productive Home Solution™. I answered saying as items are boxed up, label where those items will go once the remodel is done. One box per cabinet. I also found it useful to set up card tables with laundry baskets as cabinets during the remodel.  Pro tip: ask for extra shelves for your cabinets! Another person asked for an alternative to the shoe organizers during the remodeling because her husband doesn't like the look. “The organizers stay!” The alternative is more expensive and cumbersome. Plus, if it was all tucked away her family would constantly be asking where things were because it's all out of place to begin with. You can see through the organizers and it's for a short amount of time. “The organizers stay!” Email! You guys, we are all in trouble with AI. It is making email more and more difficult to maintain. In The Productive Home Solution™ there are TEN lessons on email alone! If you are “email upside down”, archive all you have now and slowly go through them. It once took me 8 weeks to go through a client's email inbox!  A few additional quick tips that I was able to offer was use your email like a Sunday Basket®, delay replying, delete spam, print actionable emails or emails you have replied to, and hire an executive assistant if you can. At some point, you may even think about a Chief of Staff to help. We are doing all of this invisible/ visible work for our families on top of our paid work. Email is the easiest to step out of. But only you can comfort your child in the middle of the night. What can you outsource? What Can You Outsource As women we are wearing the hats of wife, mom, home school teacher (in this case from the question), and household manager. She wanted to know if she should focus on The Productive Home Solution™ or the Teacher Friday Workbox™ because she homeschools. There is a great compromise to be made here. Do both. Do the teacher planning and incorporate an hour of home school to The Productive Home Solution™ and while you are at that they could be working on some of the Kids Program. Also, to lighten the load get a housekeeper. Again, where are you needed and what can you outsource? A housekeeper was suggested for another person asking about how to best prepare for going back to school for her CPA exam. I replied to delegate and elevate your family members. She had a college aged child that could help with housekeeping or hire it out. Also stock up on everything you can before classes start. Take care of things like dr. appointments and upcoming maintenance on cars or anything else. Those are things you can do early because school has hard deadlines that aren't flexible! Lower your standards of clean and communicate with your family about what to expect and things you will need help with because you no longer will have the bandwidth to do them.  You guys submitted such great questions.

In this episode, I introduce you to Lauren H. who is married and has a blended family with three kids and two dogs. Her mother actually lives on her property too in a separate dwelling. Lauren has been listening to the podcast for past 9 or 10 years. Only in the last 5 has she officially started her organization journey when she had her son, her mom came to live “with them”, remodeling their home, a booming business, her daughter starting Kindergarten, and oh yeah covid for the perfect storm to make someone need to get organized. Paper had always been a problem for her and the other systems didn't address paper. She was no longer in control of the paper and she needed a system to get things in order.  We had a great conversation about multigenerational housing, which was one element adding paper to her life.  Lauren's mom has lived on their property for awhile now. It's cheaper and she's very able to live in her own place with Lauren close by instead of an assisted living facility she doesn't want to be at anyway. That being said we talked about the peace of mind the medical binder provided for Lauren during Covid. No one could go to the doctor with their loved ones, this was a way to make sure the medical team knew about her severe corn allergy.  Once Lauren got all of the medical binders filled out for her family, she moved on to the financial binder. Lauren and her husband run a modular home business. The financial binders help them to keep track of all the business accounts. It felt so great when her husband needed a title for a trailer he sold and he knew exactly where to look for it. Lauren is thankful for her helpful and supportive husband. She thanked me for the message that yes women are doing more because actually they want to be running the show! They want to do all the household things but also be supported. Even in business it's easier when there is one person in charge.  And because lifestyles are so varied, at Organize 365® we try really hard to have the conversation be dynamic to support all the ways we are running our households. When life grows, so does your paper and that's why Lauren finally gave into putting systems in place because life kept growing and her paper was overwhelming. She loves that the Sunday Basket® is like her external brain. She has so much more space in her brain now.  She had very nice things to say about me, her “Organizing Big Sister”, as far as my teaching style.  And then she got very excited about planning. Planning provides her the opportunity to look at her life and her business. Lauren agrees that it's critical to take time to plan. Take yourself out of the daily activities of home and the tasks at work and plan. She feels like when she's planned out the next quarter, she can be more present during the days of that planned quarter. And she loves that with planning nothing sneaks up on her like November that is clustered with birthdays then followed by the gift purchasing holidays. She can plan for it. She can budget for it.  She only wishes she knew how to be organized and plan sooner! Lauren's advice is, “Start with the Sunday Basket®. Get everything out of your brain. For 6-8 weeks get your mind and body in a rhythm of sitting down every Sunday and processing your Sunday Basket®. Then start one of the binders.”  EPISODE RESOURCES: The Sunday Basket® Friday Workbox® Sign Up for the Organize 365® Newsletter  On the Wednesday podcast, I get to talk with members of the Organize 365­® community as they share the challenges, progress, missteps and triumphs along their organizing journey.
