We're gonna give you a brief overview of what you can expect to see from this course. We're going to say a little bit about ourselves, but then show you some, you know, footage of what we've been doing for since 2012. Working as professional organizers. My name is Samantha Kristofferson, I'm going to be one of your educators. My name is Amelia, Jose Garcia. And together, we are kW professional organizers.
Since 2012, we have a lot of people get organized. As you can see with the photos, these are some of the results that we were able to accomplish in just one day in the majority of those projects. before and afters never really tell you the true story of how you got from point A to point B. But that's what we hope to do with this course. So when you look at our before picture, we try and help you understand where that client was, how they were feeling, the frustrations that they had, and then what they were trying to move forward to and that's what the after. So all the in between work, we really dive into each step of how we do that and we teach you our method, so that you can then apply it In your own projects, our goal is to inspire and empower people who are ready for change.
And the fact that you are taking this course that means that you are ready for change, and you are ready to make really good change in your life. We are very happy to be here, guiding you through the process, we've given a lot of the coursework that you see from us. So how did it clutter and organize any space or any of the other courses that we offer? We've actually given all of these presentations and workshops live in our community. So we've traveled around Ontario, giving these workshops with live audiences, often to 50 to 60 people. And that really gave us a lot of great feedback about the things that we were sharing and how we could improve it, the exercises that we offer and some of just the content that is there to inspire you and help you move forward with your project.
So know that if you're taking this course, there have been many, many people that have gone before you that have had offered their critical criticism. So we'll ask you at the end of the course to please review the course because that will always help us improve it. So It's a very, very well method that we have tested so many times on some of the essays with physically doing the actual work with people and being in front of audiences. So we got a lot of feedback on this course we feel very comfortable sharing with you, because we know that the results are really outstanding. We are part of the professional organizers in Canada, that's an association that represents organizers. across Canada, we are members, we are silver leaf, that means that we've been around for over five years.
We are also our community chose us as the base organizing service. And that was really nice in 2017. We didn't even know that we were nominated no and and including in that we take our professional development really seriously. So as you look and learn more about the industry of professional organizing or decluttering and downsizing, there's a lot of education that goes in behind that. So both Emilio and I are trained in Mental Health First Aid, and why we do that is because we see a direct link between mental health and your physical space. So we really come back From a kind of a holistic method, and we truly try and bring some understanding and patience with that, because we understand that if you're dealing with clutter or dealing with a project like that, probably or there could be some depression or anxiety or shame associated with that project.
And we just want you to know that that's really natural and normal. And it's totally okay, no judgments coming from this. And we're just happy that you're here and you're wanting to learn to move forward. Yeah, we always understand that there is always a reason of why things go to the point that they are now, we just want to help you move through the process. And the fact that you are here, you are ready, so you just need to get it done. We are so inspired about all these are we even wrote a book.
And we will talk more about the book in the in the course too. But we just want to help you as much as we can to get to the other side and hopefully get your space to the point that you want to have it. So the course we've tried to break it down into sections that are easy for you to understand. We've also included a lot of exercises that we'll go through, kind of step by step trying to break things down even further for you, so that you can really absorb some of the knowledge that we're sharing with you. We've been featured many times in the media. So if you follow us on our YouTube channel or any of our social medias, you'll notice that we often speak out in public about this topic because we think it's really important.
We think that there's a lot of people who have difficulty with their belongings. And we think that the more that we can talk about it and share this kind of information, the better world we will all feel. Yeah, so we can't wait to get started. We can't wait to share everything that we know with you because we know it's gonna produce an amazing change in your life. So let's get started. Yeah.
