I always tell potential clients that maintenance is a key factor in staying organized.

We can put together the most perfect system in the world, based specifically on a client's routines and habits, but if it's not maintained then it will always fall apart!

In other words, you yourself must be organized and committed to the maintenance. C. Jay has it right!

Here’s what I see happen every fall: people organize their closets and then realize they’re storing clothes that don’t fit their actual life anymore.

Before you reorganize anything, do a real audit. What did you actually wear last fall? What works with your current lifestyle? What can you let go of?

Get honest about that first. Then organize what’s left.

A recent client needed some support in an office space. They were asking the space to hold A LOT of stuff, but we made it work!

What do you think about this outcome?

We LOVE client referrals—even more than we love The Container Store. Referrals are the best way to continue growing The Organizing Boss community.

Are you a satisfied client who has a friend or family member interested in decluttering and getting organized? If you refer someone who becomes a client, we offer $50 in cold hard cash (well, electronic payment actually) as a way to show my appreciation.

Send folks our way! We'd love to help them feel that same relief and peace of mind you're experiencing.

I love the "more breathable" part!

I say this all the time—we all have too much stuff! Editing down is about being intentional and ensuring you want specific items in your space. When it's not cluttered, you can BREATHE!

"Blake has been a life-saver, and a game-changer. Super-reliable, super-skilled at sorting and organizing. After only three sessions, my home is already feeling more breathable and I feel lighter and more organized. He knows his stuff, highly recommend." — Rich L., Washington, DC

I'm celebrating today! Six years ago today, I officially launched The Organizing Boss.

After 18 years in an office, I needed something different. I needed autonomy, variety, flexibility. I needed something that was mine.

When I started my business, I knew there would be demand for it; I knew I loved organizing; and I knew I wanted to work for myself. I simply wanted to build a business around organizing because it satisfied what I personally was looking for.

What I didn't expect was how much I would actually love helping people in this specific way!

The best part of these 6 years hasn't been the organized spaces (though those are pretty satisfying). It's been the people. The repeat clients who come back because they know we're going to provide awesome service. The families who feel relief when their home finally works for their life. The community in DC that's supported this dream.

I've learned so much about organizing and running a business. I've felt every emotion from scared sh*tless to wild excitement, from heartbreak to pure joy. But most importantly, I've learned that doing something you love, with people you genuinely want to help, changes everything.

So today, I'm grateful. I'm grateful for the clients who trusted me with their homes and their peace of mind. For the team that's grown around me. For the freedom to build something that feels like me.

Here's to 6 years. And to whatever comes next!

Thank you. 🙏
