Feeling Overwhelmed in your House? You Don't Need a Bigger House—Renowned Organizer Rachel Rosenthal Shares the Systems That Change Everything and Create a Home that Feels Calm when Life is Moving So Fast
Feeling like your home is overflowing and not working for you? Same. 🙋♀️ Ever since Spring Break, it’s felt like a full-on sprint over here—and my house is showing it. I told today's guest I’ve reached the point where I want to blow it all up and start over . Our mudroom? A full-blown game of Tetris… baseball helmets, lacrosse sticks, loose mouth guards, water bottles everywhere. If you’re craving a reset too, this episode is for you. How do we organize when life is moving so fast? Today I’m joined by renowned organizing expert Rachel Rosenthal, founder of Rachel & Co—a luxury home organizing and relocation firm based in DC and serving clients nationwide. Yes, you will swoon over the beautiful, functional spaces Rachel creates… but what I love most is her kind, realistic approach . There’s no shame in that messy mudroom. Rachel has seen it all—and as a mom herself, she truly understands how busy life gets. In this episode, we talk about: ✨ Why your home isn’t the problem (and what actually is) ✨ Simple systems you can start today—without overwhelm ✨ The “set a timer + pick a corner” method that actually works ✨ How to create a home that supports your real life (not a Pinterest fantasy) (We are not a decanter family!) ✨ The emotional side of clutter—and why it feels so heavy Rachel also shares her powerful story—building this incredible business as a single mom of two daughters after a challenging divorce. It’s not just inspiring...it’s a reminder of what’s possible. Her expertise has been featured in Real Simple, Martha Stewart, House Beautiful, Better Homes & Gardens, CNN and 100+ other outlets—and after this conversation, you’ll understand why. What stood out most to me? The way Rachel deeply understands how families function. I felt like she was talking directly to me—and I’m already excited to start implementing what she shared. Rachel is a pro - she knows every detail/question to ask her clients down to whether or not you're the type of family that will or will not remove a bin lid. And if you’re moving… you may find yourself calling her—because her services sound like an absolute dream. 🎧 Episode Title: Feeling Overwhelmed at Home?
