We were lucky to catch up with Rachel Sicherman recently and have shared our conversation below.

Rachel, appreciate you joining us today. So let’s jump to your mission – what’s the backstory behind how you developed the mission that drives your brand?

Being a professional organizer has taught me that our environment, upbringing and experiences help shape who we are and what we keep around us. Sometimes we need to re-evaluate our surroundings, and question what we truly need in life. More possessions don’t actually make us feel more safe and secure. They can sometimes lead to overwhelming feelings of stress and anxiety which can often lead to depression.

Rachel, love having you share your insights with us. Before we ask you more questions, maybe you can take a moment to introduce yourself to our readers who might have missed our earlier conversations?

My name is Rachel Sicherman, organizing expert and founder of Tidy Made Easy LLC and a mom to 3 amazing children. My journey in organizing began as an office manager for various medical offices over the past 20 years. Being a manager has given me the expertise in organizing work spaces, filing systems, and implementing efficient work flow. My experience in juggling work and family has taught me to appreciate the importance of having structure in order to keep the wheels of life in motion. An organized home will help you improve time management, reduce anxiety and communicate better.

Tidy Made Easy offers home and business professional organizing. My services include decluttering and organizing spaces, time management, paper management, downsizing, packing and unpacking. My approach to organizing is not only to help my clients with their physical space but also help them with their mental and emotional well being. My clients understand that I am a non judgemental person, and I am there to help them. I build relationships with my clients that goes deeper than just organizing a physical space.

We’d love to hear the story of how you turned a side-hustle into a something much bigger.

During Covid, a friend of mine asked me to help her get her house under control. She has 6 children and having everyone at home during Covid was getting out of hand. I helped her organize her home and created functional systems for her to maintain. Once I saw the positive impact it had on their lives I was hooked. I started my business as a side hustle while working full time as a manager. After a while, I knew that I was meant to help people better their lives.

How’d you build such a strong reputation within your market?

Starting a professional organizing business was challenging at first. I had to overcome imposter syndrome. Going through people’s personal items and learning about their life stories was difficult. After seeing the positive impact my work had on their physical, emotional and mental well being it made my job easier and more satisfying.

This journey has taught me to be more understanding, accepting and patient. Every individual has their own set of problems, challenges and family drama.
