I would like to start highlighting and interviewing professional organizers from around the country on Declutter It! I used to be one myself and the profession has really taken off. I had to stop my business because of time constraints and I just needed to be more available to my family. After having to cancel on clients way too many times because of a sick child or a school function I really wanted/needed to attend, I knew that this was not the time in my life to run a busy business.
So, that’s why I brought my business online in a sense and write articles and tips to hopefully help you get more organized.
Sometimes though, an article or a tip just isn’t going to cut it. Sometimes you need to call in a prefessional who knows exactly how to guide you sensitively through the process.
The first professional organizer I am going to talk about today is Cindy Culpovich from Salem, Oregon. Why? Well I woke up this morning and found this news story about her.
I loved several of the quotes from the article. Here are a few of my favorites:
“‘She’s directive and keeps you focused,’ said Scanlan, who is a physician at Salem Hospital. ‘You get a lot more done working with somebody than by yourself.’”
“Another success story comes from a 72-year-old woman Culpovich met after her presentation to a community group.
The client asked Culpovich to help her organize her medical bills and receipts. The woman’s medical insurance company would reimburse her if she could show any records of her medical expenses. With Culpovich’s help, the woman was able to find $6,000 worth of receipts, for which she was reimbursed within two weeks.”
“With all those skills and tools, Culpovich must have the cleanest house in West Salem, right? Nah.
‘I’m not a perfectionist; my house is organized but lived in,’ Culpovich said.”
Cindy’s business is Organize Your Space and you can find out more about her and her business at her website: http://www.organizingyourspace.com/

I thought it was very interesting you are interviewing professional organizers. I would love to interview with you.
It was smart of you to recognize that your family was your priority at this time.
If you find time to look at my web site you can find a lot of organizing tips on my Bloggs and articles. I was also featured in our local newspaper which was nice as I got compliments from my friends and some new clients.
Thanks for sharing this information with us.
Hi Marilyn. I would love to interview you. You can be my first one! After I get my list of questions put together, I’ll shoot you an email. Thanks for stopping by.
