Today I’m joined by professional organizer and life coach Tracy Hoth who helps people reclaim calm and clarity in their home, business, and digital world. With more than 16 years of organizing experience, Tracy applies her signature 5-step framework to everything from messy downloads to overloaded calendars - and she believes organization is about creating space to do your best work, not just making things look pretty.
If you’re sick of cluttered files, chaotic Canva accounts, endless open browser tabs, or to-do lists that feel like they’re screaming at you - this episode is for you.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- The 5 steps to organize anything - sort, purge, assign homes, set limits, maintain.
- How to use just five file folders (operations, marketing, content, education, clients) to anchor your digital system.
- Why naming files and being consistent is more powerful than colour-coding perfection.
- How Tracy manages her schedule and to-do list to reduce overwhelm.
