Heather Knittel

Being organized is a trait that comes easy to some. Others must devote time to learn it. Being highly organized comes naturally to Heather who started a career in health care, moved on to property management and, for 16 years, had a successful career in sales promotion and community relations in the broadcast industry. Her interest in Feng Shui led her to her fascination and love for keeping clutter under control.

Heather teaches clients that everything we own holds good and bad memories for us. The things we surround ourselves with in our homes radiate an energy that we all instinctively know is present. She encourages clients to remove or discard things that are meaningless to them. This simple action opens doors to infinite possibilities of change.
One of the corner stones of the Good Riddance approach is to ensure excess belongings are recycled or re-used.

Heather is a member of the National Association of Senior Move Managers and the Professional Organizers in Canada (POC). She is the co-author of Good Riddance: Showing Clutter the Door and performs in Cluttermania: The Musical Revue.

Jaclyn Soet

Jaclyn has been organizing the homes of family and friends since she was a child. Growing up she was well known for her prompt tare down of Christmas decorations, and her desire to create peaceful and inviting living spaces. She graduated with a Business Certificate in 2010 from Douglas College, and brings tremendous value to the team with her experience working as a home stager and event planner.

Jaclyn is extremely energetic and naturally contributes a positive attitude to any job. She cannot think of anything more rewarding than organizing her clients homes and helping transform their lives. She particularly enjoys working with seniors, who enrich her life with their stories and life experience. She finds great pleasure comforting and helping them through what could otherwise be a difficult transition period in their lives.

Jaclyn is a firm believer in letting go of things that you don’t need or use on a regular basis; donating clothing and other household items to charities is a great way to give back while de-cluttering and simplifying life at the same time. In her spare time Jaclyn enjoys crafting, staying active, repurposing furniture and reading.
