BEFORE Get Organized (look familiar?)
AFTER Get Organized (wistful/wishful thinking?)
If 2025 is your YEAR to GET CLEAR, then Get Organized might be right for you
How does your space get into this frustrating state of chaos?
Uh, ADHD, my friend, ADHD.
We have too many great ideas.
We start but don’t finish.
Piles appear as if by magic.
We don’t notice until it’s overwhelming.
Then we fall into despair.
But there is hope on the horizon!
Get Organized was designed specifically for ADHD brains
I KNOW disorganization (see my story below). And when I was diagnosed with ADHD, I finally realized the reasons behind my piles of clothes, papers, stuff I didn’t know what to do with…and on and on.
Just knowing about ADHD did not change my state of chaos, though. I hired a professional organizer (her phone number was in a laundry basket of papers that had been there for two years). We worked for hours and hours and eventually the chaos settled down.
What I realized 
was that when I had an APPOINTMENT to declutter and purge and organize, I actually did it. So I created a program for us that does just that: specific appointments to work together in real time, with professional coaching to help you if/when you get stuck.
Best of all, there are other ADHD folks (mostly women, but a few men, too) who share your mindset and are SO relieved when they realize they are not alone (you might feel the same way).
What does Linda Roggli know about organizing?
My disorganizing days started early…
Yep, that’s me as a baby, pulling out the folded clothes from the drawers. But over the years, I’ve had my share of decluttered days in the sun. And my re-cluttered days of regret.
Overall, I have managed to maintain some semblance of order in my office and home. My organizer once told me I was the most ADHD person she had ever worked with…and then she said she got her best ideas from me! (Hey, why am I paying you if I have the great ideas ???)
The truth is that I am really good at organizing. Not so good at maintaining that organization. Which is why we have an entire Learning Lab about systems and maintenance.
No, I am not a professional organizer. I have been called a professional dis-organizer. But I AM an ADHD woman and coach who understands the trials and tribulations of keeping up with stuff, having too much stuff and trying to make peace with stuff.
Plus, I have some (really good) ADHD-friendly ideas that might work for you, too!
But how does it work?
The first six weeks:
Thursdays at 12:00 pm Eastern time, gather via Zoom for the 30-minute Learning Lab (educational component of the program) and Q&A. Always recorded for you.
Then, at 4:00 pm we start organizing together in the “blitz.” The blitz is 2 1/2 hours long and always starts with a check-in –“What are you working on today?”– for everyone in the session.
We try to make the check-in fast and easy so you can get to work.
At 60-minutes in, we do a quick MidPoint Check-in to help keep you on track.
At the 2-hour mark, we start with more detailed Check Out (you may keep organizing during the checkout).
Organizing blitzes are held on Sundays from 1:00 – 3:30 Eastern time, Tuesdays from 6:00 pm – 8:30 pm Eastern time, and Thursdays from 4:00 pm to 6:30 pm Eastern. BTW blitzes are NEVER recorded to protect privacy.
The last two weeks:
You are a “graduate” of Get Organized and join other experienced organizers in GO Forward, the continuation of the organizing program.
The blitz times are identical to Get Organized, Sundays from 1:00 – 3:30 Eastern time, Tuesdays from 6:00 pm – 8:30 pm Eastern time, and Thursdays from 4:00 pm to 6:30 pm Eastern
(Yes, the Learning Labs for GO Forward have different topics from Get Organized).
There is also an online connection (24/7) and check-in (post photos, post goals and accomplishments, get encouragement, etc.)
All GO Forward Learning Labs are recorded but only available to other members.
Once a GO graduate, always a GO graduate
The good news is that after you complete this 8-week training, you can join any future GO Forward program! No prerequisite.
And there are additional perks when you sign up again for an 8-week GO Forward program:
-
Extra organizing time – you may join the new Get Organized group when they meet for their Learning Lab at 12:00 pm ET. No check-in for GO Forward but you can “lurk” in the background and listen in. Or you may want to have a refresher of the Get Organized Learning Labs.
-
There is a Quiet room and a Talking room in GO Forward. You choose the one you want each session and you can float back and forth if you like.
-
The Talking room has a professional organizer always present to troubleshoot if you get stuck and answer questions.
-
The Quiet room is just that – quiet. No coach or organizer in the room but you are welcome to join the Talking room temporarily if you need help.
