Ashley Stuart is a Professional Organizer, a mom to 3 neuro-diverse kids, a wife and entrepreneur. Almost 5 years ago Ashley took a talent for organizing and started Rethink Clutter, a full time, in-home Professional Organizing business. She has decluttered and organized Etsy shops and corporate offices, garages and man caves, craft rooms and pantries, and everything in between. Based on the behavioral patterns Ashley recognized in her clients, Rethink Clutter focuses particularly on the emotional attachments we have to “stuff” and how to overcome them to create purposeful ownership. Her “Organizational Grid” teaches a comprehensive framework to getting decluttered, organized, and increase your productivity! Ashley is a Keynote speaker, Podcaster, nation-wide podcast guest, and hosts virtual courses. Everything Ashley does is with the intent to “own her life instead of being owned by stuff!”
