Peace of Mind Organizing

Meet my employees!

15 September 2021

For ten years, I led organizing teams comprised of wonderful independent contractors who have their own businesses. In 2018, I hired my first employee, Amy. I made a shift toward employees so that I could create processes and policies that by law I’m not allowed to impose on contractors. (I can’t tell contractors how to organize, but I can train my employees.)

A few months after hiring Amy, I added a second employee, Geraldine. Both of them were fantastic organizers. Unfortunately, they both had to resign in November 2019, due to circumstances beyond their control. Luckily for me, right at that time I was approached by a wonderful prospective organizer, Beth Hunyar, who was not interested in starting her own business. I hired Beth in December 2019 and we got right to work. And then, of course, the pandemic hit just three months later.

Since we went back to work last year Beth has been an instrumental part of Peace of Mind Organizing®. I have stepped back from client work somewhat due to my husband’s health and concerns about COVID. Beth has filled the void, working with most of my clients, alongside independent contractors. She has moved into the lead organizer role and is doing a wonderful job. She is great at organizing and is simultaneously calm and enthusiastic. Her client skills are excellent.

Last month, I hired a second employee, Adrienne Pittson. She’s still in training, but she’s had her first client session, alongside Beth and me. (Spoiler alert: She did a great job.) Adrienne absolutely loves organizing and I’m very excited about her enthusiasm and readiness to learn, coupled with her natural organizing skills.

Both Beth and Adrienne are moms with young kids ranging from kindergarten to high school. (Beth has three, Adrienne has four.) They both juggle busy lives but as moms of young kids have amazing time-management skills. And they have the ability to really focus on the clients during sessions. Since they don’t have to run the business, all their work time is about the clients.

Beth and Adrienne make an amazing team. They both get such pleasure from organizing and from helping clients. I’m thrilled that they can benefit from my experience, because I can provide detailed training and instruction when they need it. We’ll be adding independent contractors to the team for larger jobs, as usual. We are more prepared than ever to help our clients!
