This isn’t organizing.

It’s story work — with shelves.

About Stephanie

Before I was a strategist, I was an English major. Trained to spot symbolism, subtext, and what characters can’t quite say out loud.

For 15+ years I helped brands like Microsoft, Starbucks, MoMA, and The Container Store use narrative strategy to uncover what people really wanted — and design around it.

The data is your stuff. The story is your life.

And the change we’re making isn’t cosmetic. It’s structural.

The Listening Method

Your space speaks. I help you hear it.

I created The Listening Method to help women in transition understand the emotional patterns in their homes — and release what no longer fits.

Instead of blitzing through bins, we slow down.

We make the invisible visible, surface the story your space is holding, and reset your home to reflect who you’re becoming.

Because clutter isn’t mess. It’s meaning.

What I
actually do

  • Decode the emotional weight in your space

  • Guide you to let go with clarity and peace

  • Reorganize your home so it reflects who you’re becoming

  • Work side-by-side, using your rhythm and your containers

  • Leave you with a home reset to carry your next chapter

The real shift happens inside.

Who I work with

Women in transition — grief, divorce, burnout, reinvention, or simply stuck in-between.

Not the ones who cheerfully tackle a closet purge in a weekend. The ones who look at the piles and think:

I just can’t. I’ve got too much going on. That’s a thousand tiny decisions I don’t have energy for.

If it were as simple as donating everything, you’d have done it already.

You’re not a mess. You’re mid-shift.

A Personal Note

This work isn’t just professional for me — it’s lived.

I’ve been through big life shifts. I know how overwhelming everything can feel when your life is changing.

This isn’t about bins. It’s about making peace with the past, and shaping space for what’s next. Not by organizing harder — but by listening deeper.
