In this episode of Chasing the Insights, I talk to author and clutter expert Barbara Hemphill.
Barbara talks to us about Clutter being Postponed Decisions!.
A speaker, writer, and coach, Barbara Hemphill is The Vision Accelerator and founder of Productive Environment Institute. She is passionate about eliminating the physical, digital, and emotional clutter that derails dreams.
Featured on the cover of Top 100 Entrepreneurs & Innovators and a member of 100 Women to Know in America, Barbara began her career in 1978 with a $7 ad in a New York newspaper. Her best-selling book, Taming the Paper Tiger, launched the organizing industry valued at $12.2 billion in 2022. Her world-class expertise, based on “Clutter is postponed decisions®,” is delivered virtually by an international team of Certified Productive Environment Specialists. . The New Yorker magazine recently released a story about the impact of the professional organizing industry in American culture.
Her most popular speaking topics are “Taming the Paper Tiger in the Digital Age,” and “Less Clutter More Life: Strategies for Increasing Profit, Productivity and Peace of Mind.”
Growing up on the second floor of a tenant farmhouse in Nebraska, Barbara learned firsthand the necessity of being organized. Throughout the years, her clients—from ambassadors to artists and everyone in between—have shared how decluttering their physical and emotional lives has improved their relationships, businesses, and creative pursuits.
