I talk about organizing a lot on the podcast (it's called Organize 365 after all!). I've covered everything from discovering your why to the Psychology of the Sunday Basket and how to know Which Workbox is Right for You?
But surprisingly, I've never addressed what living an organized life actually feels like... until now!
In this episode, I reveal what an organized life really looks like. No unrealistic expectations. No idealistic dreams. None of that. Just an honest look behind the curtain of an everyday, organized life.

Once I started to declutter and really focus on living a more organized life, my previous expectations were, for lack of a better phrase, shot to hell.
I realized that you're never going to have everything you want just perfect. You can drive yourself crazy trying, but it's like trying to reach the end of the rainbow. It's never going to happen.
