What is Contained Madness?
I started Contained Madness 10 years ago, in May of 2013. Having a career in education, I recognized so many struggles in students related to organization, and realized that I’d had many of them myself when I was in school.
In fact, most people are surprised when I tell them that I have ADHD, and that organization didn’t come naturally to me at all. It is through a lifetime of developing coping mechanisms and strategies that I have learned the evolving art of organizing, and I wanted to bring that type of calm to other people. I knew all-to-well that chaos in the environment fuels chaos in the mind, which makes focus and goal setting nearly impossible.
In 2020, amidst the pandemic, I left education and chose to pursue Contained Madness full time. While working side-by-side with many amazing clients, it became clear that the value in our organizing relationship was 20% putting things away in a tidy fashion, and 80% understanding why disorganization happens, and how to work with their lifestyles to establish systems that could serve them.
That is when Contained Madness Coaching was born. Whether you choose in-person services to bring beauty and tidiness to your space, or virtual services to allow me to support, guide, and embolden you to create real change within yourself and your life… I am honored by every person who allows me to journey beside them and help make lasting changes.
