The former U.S. Army Sergeant, entrepreneur, Indian motorcycle rider, and lovingly known as The Drill Sergeant of Productivity by her clients, Paris was born to organize. She is an adrenaline junkie. Hooah!!
Dr. Paris Journey
As a young child, Dr. Paris would organize her parent’s kitchen spices; interestingly, she did not have to be told to make her bed. In college, she organized her dorm room and tidied the beds of her roommates. Best roomie ever!!!
Several years later, a doctor informed her that organizing other people’s things was not NORMAL. Dr. Paris thought, “My friends like it when I come over.” The doctor informed Dr. Paris that she had an obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). After researching OCD, she discovered the National Association of Productivity and Organizing Professionals (NAPO) and had a light bulb moment: "There are other people like me! Furthermore, they get paid to do this.”
Hence, Dr. Paris’s business was created soon after. Dr. Paris soon discovered that it’s not about the clutter. It’s something else. Ahh, and Dr. Paris is good at getting to that something else.
Here’s a little secret that Dr. Paris discovered along the way, if you don’t efficiently manage your time or space, then what you love becomes your greatest source of stress and overwhelm, and you cannot do the life-changing work you were meant to do. Dr. Paris can help you get back in control so that you can concentrate on nurturing and loving your business and life.
