Less Time Searching,
More Time Living
After being pigeon-holed into administrative job after administrative job, Phaedra looked for an alternate career. Realizing that applying to another corporate job was the exact definition of insanity (doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result), she searched for other ideas. Based on her past experience in both the corporate and performing arts worlds, she knew she had a strong organizational skill set. From there she decided to share her skills with creative people who were stuck in similar dilemmas: working traditional jobs to make ends meet while balancing the many areas of their home life. Practical Possibilities established its LLC in January of 2019.

Frequently Asked
WHAT DOES YOUR TIMELINE LOOK LIKE & HOW INVOLVED WILL I BE IN THE PROCESS?
A typical session is usually scheduled for around 4 hours. How quickly you see results will be based on how quickly you can make decisions! I prefer to work side by side with my clients. Since the solutions I propose are designed to fit your unique circumstances, your feedback during the process makes the best use of time and ensures you get the most effective solutions out of each session.
HOW DO YOU ACCEPT PAYMENT?
For prepaid packages, payment is due at the time of scheduling your first session. Payment methods include credit/ debit card and Zelle. For non-package pricing, payment is due immediately at the end of the session. Payment methods include credit/ debit card, Zelle, check, or cash.
WHAT DOES YOUR TYPICAL PROCESS LOOK LIKE?
My typical process includes: emptying the space to be organized, matching like items together, moving items that don't belong in that space to their designated areas, decluttering items by identifying unneeded duplicates and unused items, and then placing back in the space in an orderly fashion. Some projects can look different from this, but these are the principles I tend to use.
HOW DO YOU HANDLE DONATIONS?
For packages that include donation drop-offs, I will take one car load to Goodwill, Salvation Army, or another thrift store with easy donation drop off procedures. I will obtain a receipt for your records and either email it to you, or bring it to our next session. If you would like to donate to a different organization, I will bill for the travel time to make the donation at my hourly rate.
