The Work
Both businesses under the Collective share a common foundation: a strengths-based, collaborative approach that respects your intelligence and assumes you are capable of solving your own problems with the right support.
I’m Amy
I’m a Chicago-based Certified Professional Organizer® and life coach. I work with people who are ready to stop trying harder and start building structures that actually fit.
I came to this work the long way around. I spent 20 years in a demanding career, rose to a senior level, and eventually burned out completely. When I rebuilt, I started with organizing: it was concrete, useful, and I was good at it. Over time, I grew increasingly curious about the patterns I kept seeing beneath the clutter: the difficulty initiating, the inconsistent follow-through, the gap between knowing and doing. That curiosity eventually led me to coaching.
Both businesses grew from the same source: a sincere interest in why capable people get stuck and what it actually takes to move forward. I built them for people who are smart and self-aware and tired of being told to try harder.
My Work
Amy Louise Organizing is a collaborative, coaching-informed practice serving clients in Chicago (in-person) and throughout the continental U.S. and Canada (virtually). My work focuses on root causes, not aesthetics. We reduce what isn't serving you, build systems that fit how you actually live, and develop the skills to maintain them independently.
Many clients come with ADHD or executive function challenges; others are navigating busy, complex seasons of life that have pushed their current systems past their limits.
This is not a done-for-you service. It is a partnership.
Amy Louise Coaching is a virtual practice for adults navigating overwhelm, inconsistent follow-through, and patterns that have become harder to manage as demands have increased. Many clients are dealing with ADHD or executive function challenges; others simply recognize themselves in those patterns without a formal diagnosis.
Coaching offers a focused, consistent process for understanding what's driving those patterns and building habits that fit your real life.
Sessions are held on Zoom for clients in the U.S. and Canada.
