May Media Features & Inspiring Moments from Di is Organized
We’re halfway through May, and it’s already been such a meaningful month for Di is Organized and the Organize Yourself Healthy community! Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve had the chance to share practical tips, connect with other inspiring women, and encourage busy moms to create space—not just in their homes, but in their lives.
From thoughtful conversations about simple home systems to sharing bite-sized habits that support both organization and self-care, May has been all about embracing what works for you. I’m a big believer that organizing isn’t about doing it all—it’s about making small, steady shifts that help you feel more in control and less overwhelmed.
If life’s been moving fast (as it tends to do!), I’ve pulled together a little round-up of what’s happened so far this month. Pour yourself something warm, get cozy, and take a peek at the highlights—it might be just the motivation you need today.
