Make Your Home Your Sanctuary As You Shelter-In-Place

These days, it’s becoming more and more likely that we’ll all be spending most of our time inside….cut off from outside social spaces, unable to attend events that have been cancelled, and thinking extra carefully about our grocery lists.  And to make it through flattening the curve and continuing to socially distance ourselves by just staying in our homes, we might want to take a page out of the pregnancy-preparation book…and start nesting.

10 Things That Will Bring “Sexy” Back Into Your Relationship

Does your relationship need a reboot?  If you’re like me, you may have found that keeping the “sexy” in your relationship with your spouse or partner can be quite a challenge. Men can be just as challenging as raising a 2-year-old.

What a huge difference Cathy made in my office at work!  She helped me organize the mountains of paperwork and chaos and now it looks great!  I have a system that I know will work for me because she made sure that things were organized by how I use them…everything in its place!  I value Cathy’s creativity, integrity, originality and helpfulness in all the organizing/time management projects she does.  Next I plan to take her Time Strategies program so I can get my business calendar, appointments and desk organized.  Can’t wait!!

I feel fortunate enough to have participated in one of Cathy’s Teleclasses and purchased  her ADD Parental Strategies program.  I really needed my husband to understand more about ADD so we could help our son better.  The program dove into who we are as people and showed us the importance of communication between us in order to communicate more effectively with our son.  I’d recommend this program to everyone, whether they have ADD kids or not.  It’s a real eye opener!  Thanks.
