Meet the Team
At Peace of Mind Organizing, we typically work in organizing teams, though we do offer one-on-one organizing as well. After the initial consult, you work with my team members to get your space organized. My team members include two employees, along with some independent contractors as needed.
Get to know the Peace of Mind Organizing employees!
Beth Hunyar, CPO®, Lead Organizer
Beth Hunyar joined Peace of Mind Organizing in 2019. She is a Certified Professional Organizer through the Board of Certification for Professional Organizers and holds her Foundation Certificate in Chronic Disorganization through the Institute for Challenging Disorganization. She enjoys continuing her education through classes offered by both organizations.
She is married to her high school sweetheart and they have three kids ranging from grade school to high school. When she’s not working, Beth enjoys reading, exercising, traveling, and being with her family. But even on her days off, she’s probably organizing something!
Beth has a bachelors degree in Social Work from St. Louis University and has found a lot of the tools and theories she learned there to be very helpful while working with clients. She has also worked as a social worker in a nursing home and with developmentally disabled adults. Both of those positions have given her unique experiences that she brings to clients she helps get organized.
Beth says, “I have always been a tidy person and feel the most calm and least anxious when the items around me have a home. I believe that physical clutter creates mental clutter and that organizing is a skill we can develop. I approach every organizing client with an open mind and deep well of empathy. I enjoy working with individuals and families to identify their struggles, find their preferred organizing style, and help them achieve their goals. I love working alongside clients to help them achieve peace of mind.”
“Beth and Lydia are full of suggestions and tips to help me make decisions. They have both been an absolute joy to work with. They have gone above and beyond to help with other small tasks that are difficult for me, like carrying my laundry upstairs or changing some pillow cases. They are both kind, fun, and it’s just been a really good fit.”

Lydia Boda, Organizer
Lydia Boda joined Peace of Mind Organizing in 2022. She is most drawn to working with clients who are neurodivergent thinkers like herself.
Lydia has her degree in Sculpture and Functional Art and was always fascinated by the duality of art and function. After graduating from the Kendall School of Art and Design she worked there as the ceramics studio technician and found she needed to find systems to help her organize the studio and its large glaze library. At this point Lydia was all in on identifying systems that helped her organize both her professional life and home.
To help her clients, Lydia relies on her lived experience as well as the classes she has taken from both the National Association of Productivity and Organizing Professionals and the Institute for Challenging Disorganization, from which she has earned the Foundation Certificate in Chronic Disorganization. She also continues to learn from her clients and her fellow POMO team members.
Lydia shares her home with her husband Ryan, an illustrator, and their beloved pet, Nanna, named after the dog in Peter Pan. When Lydia is not sculpting she often enjoys foraging, playing DND, baking, playing her guitar, and going to see live music.
Lydia says, “As someone with ADHD, I strongly believe that organizing systems should be personalized, not a cookie cutter approach. As an artist, I have an eye for organizing things visually. I enjoy the process of figuring out what might fit where so that a client can find what they need when they need it. I find my superpower lies in spacial awareness. I’m able to find visual patterns and know exactly what is going to fit into what.”
“Beth and Lydia exceeded my expectations!! It was a great experience and I am so happy about what was accomplished. I’m looking forward to my next session.”
