Day in the Life of Professional Organizer, Meggie Mangione: Ever wonder what a day in the life is like for a professional organizer? Check out this episode of the Day in the Life podcast with Meggie Mangione to find out! #organization #organizationtips #motivation

Today’s interview was inspired after Marie Kondo’s organizing special came out on Netflix! With the organizing and purging crazy happening since the beginning of 2019, I thought it’d be a great opportunity to invite a professional organizer on the podcast!

Today’s guest is Meggie Mangione who runs Organized Life Design out of Houston, Texas.

Meggie shares common mistakes people make when it comes to organizing their home, where to start when you’re completely overwhelmed with the disorganization of your home, how to organize when you’re living in small spaces, how to keep things organized when you have small children, is having a junk drawer healthy or no, and what the heck to do with all of those holiday cards you get but don’t know what to do with come January 1st.

As always, I’d love to invite you to join the Day in the Life podcast Facebook group so connect with other listeners and we can talk about this interview…I’m SUPER excited about this minisode that goes with this week and we’ll be talking all about ORGANIZING!

Excited for you to tune in and hope you enjoy!
