Feeling buried in the business side of your organizing biz? You’re not alone—and today’s guests are here to help you rescue hours worked and actually enjoy running your business again. 🙌

In this candid, behind-the-scenes episode, I sit down with Stephanie Sikora and Jen Martin, co-founders of Reset Solutions Consulting, to unpack what’s REALLY draining your time, energy, and profits as a professional organizer—and how to fix it without burning out.

These two industry powerhouses built and scaled organizing companies with teams of 5 to 19 organizers, and they’ve made every mistake (so you don’t have to). From charging for ALL your time (yes, even planning and proposals), to using walkie-talkies on site (you’ll never go back), to building backend systems that actually work, this conversation is packed with wisdom, laughs, and actionable insights.

💥 What You'll Learn in This Episode:

• Why your systems are secretly leaking time and money
• The #1 mindset shift to go from side hustle to CEO
• The biggest time-wasters in your business (and how to fix them)
• Why perfectionism is costing you profit
• Real talk on burnout—and how to bounce back
• The must-have tools and tech for streamlined workflows
• How to close clients faster without sounding salesy
• What to automate, delegate, or eliminate immediately

🔥 This episode is for you if: You’re a solo pro organizer drowning in admin work, running a lean team and hustling too hard, or scaling fast but stuck in the cycle of I don’t have time to fix this!

This isn’t just talk—it’s a free business audit in podcast form.

🛠️ Ready to streamline, scale, and rescue hours you didn’t even know you were losing? Tune in now, and let’s get your business running like a well-labeled pantry.

👇 ALL the tools, tips, and nerdy organizing gadgets mentioned are linked in the description.

• Done is better than perfect. Let go of the control and scale your organizing business with ease.
• You’re probably not charging for everything. It’s time to bill for planning, proposals, and backend time.
• Stop writing 38-step onboarding emails. Close clients faster with proposal tools and pre-qualifying questions.
• Don’t DIY everything. Hire a VA. Use Zapier. Free yourself.
• Burnout isn’t your fault. Set non-negotiables and build systems that support your life, not drain it.
• Stop sending clients 32 basket links. They don’t care. You do. Let your systems do the talking.
• Use the right tools. ClickUp, Dubsado, Loom, Google Chat, ChatGPT, and that sexy little voice memo device (hi, Ploud 👋).

Community matters. Find your people. Learn from those who’ve walked the path—and got systems to prove it.
