2. I am embarrassed about the mess. Should I straighten up before you come?
This is a common feeling. I understand that many people don’t have the skills, time or energy to stay on top of clutter. I do this work because I love helping people. I am so pleased that you called me and that we can work together. In terms of straightening up, I actually find it very helpful to see your home or office just as things are. This gives me a more accurate picture of how you use the space and what it will need to function better for you.
