Kelly Austin is a “logistical life coach” rather than your typical professional organizer. Experienced and skilled at working with clients who have undergone a major life change, Kelly has expertise and compassion to help people move through difficult times in their lives with balance.
What Kelly does is beyond helping someone who can’t get around to creating and using a filing system, or whose closet needs a redo. For the last 10 years, her experience has been working with people who are faced with downsizing and/or consolidating after a divorce, job change (loss; relocation; retirement), a natural or other disaster, or the death of a spouse/loved one.
There is a very personal tempo each client has during major life changes. Kelly has a unique way to get the project completed. The end results not only brings a beautiful space, it also bring balance, emotionally and physically. For lives that desire and require logistical clarity, please consider the possibility to change. Kelly offers ½ hour consultations at no charge.
