The Journey of How Neatify Came To Be!
Once upon a time, in the not-so-neat world of childhood, I wasn't exactly the poster child for tidiness. My room resembled a tornado aftermath more often than not with clothes and barbies strewn all over. But amidst the chaos, but as I got a little older I discovered a sense of calm when things were in order. Little did I know that this sense of calm would lead me down the path of becoming a professional organizer and launching my own business, Neatify.
Fast forward to adulthood and becoming a mom, where the battle against anxiety was real, my secret weapon was the magic of organization. If my living space wasn't clutter-free, it felt like a recipe for an anxiety-induced disaster.
As an elementary teacher for a decade, maintaining a tidy classroom was crucial. Leaving my classroom in disarray was like inviting chaos to the next day. I firmly believed that a clutter-free environment wasn't just for my benefit but for the sanity of my students as well. Because let's face it, maintaining a kindergarteners attention is challenging enough without a cluttered classroom.
As the years rolled by, I discovered the joy that came with organizing my own living space. The satisfaction of neatly arranged cabinets, pantries and closets became my therapy.
After a few family and friends witnessed my joy in decluttering, they casually mentioned: "You should turn this into a business!" For over a year, I brushed off the idea, thinking organizing was just my quirky hobby. But one day, the stars aligned, and I thought, "Why not?" And just like that, Neatify was born.
So here I am, turning my knack for tidiness into a wonderful journey with Neatify, tackling one space at a time. Because let's be real, life is chaotic enough without the added stress of clutter and mess - and Neatify is here to sprinkle a bit of order, one magically tidy space at a time, because I've felt firsthand how an organized space can be a sanctuary, reducing stress and anxiety. And if I can gift that tranquility to others, why not make the world a little neater and a lot happier?
