What Is My Happimess

As an organizing coach, my motto is “an organized life = a happy life.” The process of self-reflection and personal growth is very much like the process of organizing. When unearthing the clutter, the mess often gets much worse before it gets better. But, as long as we stick with the mess, or discomfort, and look it straight in the eye and decide we want change, organizing our physical or emotion spaces ultimately surfaces more clarity, happiness and comfort than initially imagined.

My Happimess is primarily about learning to use (my) discomfort (fear, frustration, anxiety, anger, etc.) to grow and create joy. Hence, the motto, “conscious life = happy life.”

Through My Happimess you’ll hear a lot about my life, my marriage, starting my business, life lessons through organizing, my personal growth work with Lora, etc. I also offer tips and tools for unearthing your own desires to bring about change.

The name - My Happimess - came about because my husband, Ted, is one clever man (it’s no surprise he owns a branding/creative firm www.brandpos.com). After describing the intention of my new blog, he immediately emailed me a list of potential names, all of which were phenomenal (again, no surprise). I’ll give myself credit for going to him!

His first suggestion was “Happimess.” “Brilliant!” I thought. The more I sat with it, the more I loved it. This really gets at what my blog represents for me. Life can be very messy and it usually is. Yet, there is also happiness and order that comes from the mess. 

As I experience the day-to-day joy and discomfort, I will share them with you as I try to bring them to awareness and learn from them. My Happimess depends on it. Maybe yours will too.
