2019 was a tremendous year in some many different areas and I am extremely grateful for it all. I could not run this little business of mine without my team and I am so fortunate to have committed, enthusiastic, brilliant, organized, and loving team members that help make Rachel and Company the best organizing firm in the Washington, DC area (dare I say even outside the area?!)

As a professional organizer, you would think that I would have a Candy Spelling-worthy wrapping room but this has always been an area of my life and home that has struggled.

And, as you will see, a ton of the things that I do to make for a better morning routine are done the night before!
