Fall is a visceral season of change. The magnificent color shifts and cooler weather cue me to assess and act. I’m knee-deep in exciting professional and personal projects. There is the clutter workshop on October 17th. Registration is now open. I invite you to join us and would love to see you there.

I’ve had a flurry of media requests. I contributed to many articles for USA Today, LivingEtc., and Homes & Gardens. Some are out, and others are coming soon. You can find these and other features at ohsoorganized.com/media.

Our home is undergoing changes. We’ve done tree work, and a new roof will be installed soon.

The guest room, which used to be our daughters’ bedroom, is being renovated. The positive effect of fresh paint, new blinds, bedding, and closet interior is incredible. It’s also an opportunity to review what stays or goes. Edit time!

While it was liberating to release some things, emptying the closet and touching the memorabilia was incredibly emotional. It took me by surprise. Moving stuff around stirs up the energy and memories in a space, and I felt that deeply.

How can I help and support you this season?

As I walk by the river or through the woods, it’s impossible not to notice.  A burst of red here, a swath of yellow there. The landscape and season is changing. I feel conflicting things with this transformation. On the one hand, I receive comfort in nature’s continuous cycles. However, those same patterns also indicate change. This creates negative and positive thoughts and feelings.

The negative ones look like . . .

• Oh, no! The cold weather is coming.

• The year is almost over.

• How will I accomplish all that I hoped to do?

The positive ones sound like . . .

• These fall colors are gorgeous!

• I’m grateful for the seasonal nudge to embrace change.

• The new season is an opportunity to review, reset, and accomplish my goals.

• Possibilities are abundant.

Let’s change the conversation and choose a positive lens. What becomes possible for you this season? How can I help?

The other day I was walking on my favorite path along the Hudson River. It was a gorgeous late afternoon with a coolish early fall temperature, a slight breeze, and the sun peeking in and out from the clouds above.

I’m always looking for visible changes, especially this time of year. Trees hold the magic and never disappoint. Catching my gaze was a small maple tree full of mostly green leaves. But what drew me close was one bright red leaf nestled among all the green ones. It was a sign!

Change was evident in its most visible, bold way. It was as if the red leaf had invited me to join it. The intense color and swaying movement encouraged me to be brave, step outside my comfort zone, and embrace change and what’s possible. OK. Maybe it wasn’t indicating all that, but I felt something visceral.

For me, hosting my first online workshop (How to Conquer Clutter) is a significant change. I’m so excited! It has been a long time in the making. So many of you have encouraged, guided, and inspired me. I’m deeply grateful to you.

If you have already registered, thank you. I can’t wait to see you on October 20th! Please invite others you think would enjoy it. Let’s clear the clutter and make space for what’s possible.
