Hi, I'm Sam—a Certified Professional Organizer® based in the San Francisco Bay Area and the voice behind Simply Organized. This blog has been my passion project since 2010, and it's where I get to share everything I've learned from organizing hundreds of homes. You'll find real strategies that work in real life, honest product recommendations, project transformations, and the organizing philosophy that guides all my work: maintainable over perfect. Let's create a home that works beautifully for how you actually live.

Funny thing…I was about to start this post saying, “With my slower summer schedule….”. But guess what? That would be a complete lie. And do you like liars? Probably not. So let’s just be honest and say I’m setting up this space with the hopes I will workout more since it’s nearly impossible to get […]

Hey! Much like the food post I shared this weekend, maybe at first glance this doesn’t appear to be organization related. But my little loves, it so is! Not only do I have to schedule in and be organized with my workout schedule (or it won’t happen), but I have to be prepared with my […]
