Your Children are Not You; Don’t Force them to Repeat Your Childhood

February 23, 2020

This post is meant to remind you that your kids are not you. Just because you loved piano lessons as a kid, does not mean your kid will. But you force them take piano because it’s what you know. Parents tend to do this because it’s hard to get out of our comfort zone. I […]

Stop Buying Bins, Baskets and Boxes

July 23, 2018

For some reason, people immediately turn to buying bins, baskets and boxes when they have too much stuff. They think putting their things in pretty, matching receptacles will help their clutter situation. The problem is most of us already can’t breathe because we have too much stuff. Clutter causes stress and anxiety. When you buy […]

The Saddest Place

April 27, 2018

When I was a newspaper reporter, I occasionally went to courthouse to see who had been arrested — just in case a legislator had a DUI or a famous person murdered his wife. I used to think the courthouse was the saddest place on Earth. Because if you are at the courthouse, it’s not a […]

The Best Handyman

April 24, 2018

I am an only child, so I hated sharing clothes with my college roommates. Luckily for me, I am so short, most of them did not fit in my clothes. But I have always shared names of service providers I love. I happily share names of babysitters. I love telling friends about Rivka From, the business coach […]

April 10, 2018

I asked my daughter if she wanted a party for her birthday or a trip to New York City. She chose the trip. So we met my mom in New York last weekend. And I want to tell you about it so you too can emphasize experiences over buying stuff — even when it comes […]

Your Dog Does Not Want It

March 20, 2018

Do you have a doggie toy bin overflowing with stuffed animals, Kongs and squeaky toys? Does your cat have baskets of things on a stick and little balls? Just like your kids, your animals do better in a calm, cleared atmosphere. Your dog and cat do not need a million toys. It’s overwhelming. Throw out […]

Leah Friedman
Hello!
I'm a professional organizer in Raleigh, North Carolina, helping people declutter their homes and work spaces.

Testimonials

After working with Leah Friedman, the room looked and felt calm, rather than chaotic. When I am overwhelmed again, I will certainly hire her expertise and energy. What an investment in order, calm and piece of mind!

Leah helped me to organize several spaces in my home that have been on my “to do” list for years. She arrived on time, ready to tackle the projects, and made something I dreaded doing lots of fun! She never judges, is always encouraging and gets the job done in a reasonable amount of time. I highly recommend her!
Anne ShermanChapel Hill
I love the way my master closet looks, and my husband is very happy, too. Thank you so much for helping me through the whole process. I still can’t believe how much work we got done.
BeckyDurham
Leah Friedman turned a wretched job into fun! It’s true. She even had me laughing. She is worth every penny. We plowed through two closets. They are now nicely organized, and I know where to find my clothes. I even know what I own. Leah hauled about six bags of give-aways to Interact. I heartily recommend Leah. She gets the job done! She a combo of firm, gentle and fun. Just what I needed.
