It’s that time of year once again. Earlier this month, I participated in NAPO 2024 Summit, the annual conference that provides professional organizers with continued education and networking opportunities. I think it was just what I needed to remind myself about the importance of embracing change and organizing for business growth, even during this incredibly busy time in my career.

Does anyone else feel like even though the days are getting longer, time is slipping away faster than ever? From email to tax prep to spring home updates to self-care, it seems like there is never enough time in the day to get everything done.

More and more, unpredictable weather and weather-related emergencies are becoming a very real risk for all of us. California’s dry season brings a looming threat of wildfires every year, and lately, we have been experiencing atmospheric rivers in Los Angeles. I am grateful to live in a place where flooding is not an issue, but my heart goes out to many of my friends and clients who have had to deal with flooding, mudslides, and other aftereffects of the recent rains.
