I am a hands-on polymath, generalist, - a renaissance soul. I have recently assisted with …

event planning, recruitment, branding, interior design, project management, expense claims, insurance forms, estate matters, tax preparation, standard operating procedures, research, speech writing, photo shoots, staging, home and office organization, corporate gifts, and more. I am particularly helpful with matters of style, creativity, and presentation, … advising, mentoring, collaborating and sometimes coaching.

I am grateful to help. Every endeavor feeds the next and we are all in this together.

I've found in my own life that if I make a small start on a project I gain momentum. It seems that no matter how long I may have managed to procrastinate, the simple act of starting is what is called for to get the monkey off my back. The ease sets in and I usually wonder what took me so long to get to it. Is there something I can help you start?

Tax time is upon us. I offer private, positive, non-judgmental organizing of your receipts, etc. Together we can put it all together, catch up on past years, and get the monkey off your back. In my experience (and of course it depends on your filing system) a year takes less than a day to do and you can then take it to your accountant or tax service knowing that you have captured all the expenses. Contact me if you think I can help.

Procrastination doesn’t feel good. When a task or project hangs around, it saps our energy. I’ve noticed that getting something done in one area of my life, creates more ease, and other blocks become more achievable. I will be privileged to help you shift something from the realm of procrastination to the pleasure of achievement. Send me a message.

One of my goals in providing my assistance is to fill the need for this service with professionalism and positivity.

Are you stuck? I can help by setting a goal together, keeping you on track, but mostly .... STARTING the damn thing. We all have those little projects that we procrastinate about to the extent that they grow into mountains in our own mind. The longer one of those has been hanging around for you, the more you need some help. Let’s do this!
