Preparing for an 80% Home Downsizing
Hi Vicki! Thank you so much for your help getting me going and keeping me on track in the process of downsizing and packing up for my move. Your services were invaluable. I had been overwhelmed and frozen by how to go about the endless details and decisions that had to be made. Your calming, encouraging presence and grounded strategies gave me the framework I needed for the massive project it was. What a gift for anyone facing that daunting process!
Thank you again, Ann S
Laundry Room-Pantry Makeover
Something in me has shifted since the morning you came in and we began to pull things out and put them into piles of perspective.... Your grace and gentle redirection when I felt distracted by overwhelm was something I will never forget. Your approach to my chaos provided a safe place to be authentic during the process and was exactly what I needed to get over the initial mountain within and practice getting out of my own way by making room for true personal expansion....
The layout and plans you shared the following day provided me the continued structure and guidance I needed to follow through.... I would highly recommend The Groomed Home services to anyone who feels stuck in their mire of chaos and may not know how to start.... With deep gratitude and room to move, Dez
