She was so used to living with an organized environment that she could spend her time pursuing her career, passion projects, and friendships - instead of dealing with her space.She also realized that most professional organizing services are targeted at suburban families. Few providers seem to understand the specific needs of driven high achievers living in small urban spaces and trying to grow their careers and families.
