TESTIMONIALS
“Julie is amazing! She comes right in with ideas, tasks, and goals to make organizing run smoothly and efficiently, The best part is, she makes it FUN! We accomplished in 4 hours what would have taken me DAYS! Julie is talented and passionate about what she does and it shows. So glad to have Keys to Living Light as a resource-such a blessing.”
“Julie was such a delight to work with. She was quick to understand our needs and roll up her sleeves. Couldn’t recommend her enough. In one day, some key living spaces are feeling and functioning so much better. We are enjoying our home more because of her ideas!”
“Julie was so helpful to me last winter. She has an artist’s eye for how rooms work, and I’m so pleased with her ideas and how easy she was to work with. She was respectful as well as high energy!”
“Julie helped us clean out our garage so we could fit our 2nd vehicle in even though it was 20 degrees out. She guided us through purging years of accumulated “treasures” painlessly and organized the rest to make enough space so quickly it blew our minds. We’ll definitely be calling her for future projects!”
“Julie was a Godsend when I had to move from my home to an apartment. If anyone has done that you know how hard it is to downsize and I had a lot of stuff. Julie is a hard worker and stays on task. She’s fun to be around. I couldn’t have done this move without her.”
“Julie was so helpful for me and my spouse to get our living space organized! She was supportive and gave us useful skills, and best of all, took things away for us, to recycle/donate so we didn’t have to complete that final step. We also had a lot of fun working with her-it felt like she was part of our “team” and helped us think through how we use things and how we want to use our space. 10/10 recommend!”
“Julie was exceptional to work with, not only very professional but also so personable, a pleasure to be around, I would recommend her services to anyone any time.”
“Julie was absolutely the best help I could have had for all my projects! She was a quick study, knew just what to do. No job was too big or too small. Julie took care of all the stuff I didn’t want to do, or couldn’t. She’s wonderful!”
“Julie was wonderful. She was professional, responsive, careful, super helpful and was willing to work with us for particular needs. I am forever grateful for the help she assisted us with in our packing and organizing needs. She was my favorite person I spoke with and worked with after calling close to a dozen local professionals.”
“Julie was a breath of fresh air and an angel sent from heaven at the perfect time. I was about to return to work after maternity leave and needed help getting all the new baby stuff organized and make room in our tiny house for a soon to be on the move baby. I previously had family try and help us and it made small dents but was full of emotion and upset feelings. Julie came in as a neutral party and helped get our house in much needed order. We went room to room at a pace my partner and I could handle and after each of her visits, stress was released and she takes donations with her at the end of the day!
I can’t say enough great things about Julie! I’m so glad we hired her and would hire her again in a heartbeat!”
“Julie was so amazing. She really helped me think more about how to use the space of my new house and she worked from the time she arrived till when she left. She even helped me a little past our agreed stopping time and she continues to give me ideas, links to products and suggestions even after the session was over. Will hire again!”
“I appreciated Julie’s professionalism and attention to detail. She was concerned about how the packing was done. Excellent and very professional job.”
“Keys to Living Light has helped me identify small and easy ways to free up space in my home and make it a little bit easier to live in!”
“Julie is great to work with and always has amazing ideas for how to recreate a room.”
“I loved how much we accomplished in each session. Julie never made me feel judged. I feel more at peace. I know where things are now and I’m not trying to fix problem areas because they are done!”
“I needed to move my office and was overwhelmed. I hired Julie to help me not knowing exactly what she did/or would do. It was incredible. I was basically out of my office in 4 hours and she also sold things that I couldn’t keep.
Before she started my wife kept asking me what I expected her to do and I said I wasn’t sure. After seeing what she did, my wife had her do many things for her as well. I highly recommend her services!”
“Keys to Living Light provides a valuable service to the homeowner who is looking to organize and improve their space. Julie is professional and responsive and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend Julie and her services!”
“It was great working with you. You organized my kitchen so well that it’s been more than a month and my whole family has been able to maintain it.”
“Julie is the best! She saved me from myself! In a very roundabout way, Julie was referred to me by my realtor in an agency that had excellent reports from their customers. I was in need of not just decluttering closets and garage, but actually going through personal things that weren’t mine. Some boxes hadn’t been opened since moving 5-1/2 years ago, some items I was just not ready to let go of on my own, and other boxes were filled with things I had never seen before and had no place for them.
I felt that Julie knew exactly how to handle a tender, broken heart with strong determination to make headways in moving forward. Starting with her patience and care with me as I went through every piece of paper in every stack, bag and box she brought to me felt like the best out-of-pocket therapy I had ever experienced. She helped me set goals, she redirected my hesitations and energized my ambition to make things different. “Toss, shred, sell, donate and keep” stuck with me immediately and I cannot tell you how many loads she hauled out of my house and garage. She had a place to donate and dispose of EVERYTHING I let go of. That was truly a major piece for me…the fact that Julie hauled it away as soon as it left my grip was an awesome gift.
I really didn’t know there was so much stuff very neatly tucked away. But I knew I was too overwhelmed to even start in on it. Now I sit in my favorite room with space to breathe. And though I am far from done, there’s room to dream a little bit with painting and rearranging. Also, there’s great peace as I continue on without worrying what my kids will get stuck with. Thank you so much, Julie, from me and them! “Let there be light” indeed!”
“Exceptional customer service. Went out of her way to organize meeting times and followed through and got back to everyone involved. She found very helpful and organized vendors to help with cleaning out and picking up items held in our storage locker. She, herself, helped us to lift and move objects from the locker to our cars. She was on time or early. She researched and created a list of vendors for us to use to help us accomplish our goals. She was extremely pleasant and easy to work with!”
“Julie was incredible to work with. I hired her to help reorganize many rooms in my house. She was so easy to work with-professional, kind and efficient. I’ve hired several professional services in the last couple of years and hiring Julie was one of the best decisions I’ve made. The highlight for me is that she helped me take something I’ve been avoiding for years as I was overwhelmed by the idea of starting, and she helped me tackle it piece by piece. I highly recommend working with Julie.”
“I loved it. My life is very hectic right now with two kids and organizing my space was a great decision. I enjoy the space more and I’m even sleeping better! Crazy.”(After organizing the master closet)
“Fantastic! Julie helped us get our utility room from junk pile back to functional and safe. She kept the momentum going and had helpful insights into systems that work for us.”
“I am so impressed with the work that was done on my closet to organize and just make it presentable again! Julie was amazing to work with and got things done in a very timely and professional manner! I’d definitely hire her again!”
“I have used the organizational services of Keys to Living Light at least three times. The experience has been joyful to say the least. Julie is so kind and nonjudgemental. She believes in recycling and donating. Therefore, hardly anything ended up in a landfill, which is very important to me. I highly recommend Julie. She moves quickly but thoughtfully. I can guarantee you will feel better and certainly lighter!”
“Julie was such a great help and support! She provided super helpful information, answered calls promptly, made the connections I needed and got the work done with an incredible amount of professional kindness. Thank you Julie-I’ve got you on speed dial for my next project!”
“We worked with Julie Starke for several weeks prior to our move. She was simply invaluable. She surveyed the plethora of belongings and compassionately helped me make decisions of what to take and what to donate or dispose of. She brought boxes and labeled them with their contents and desired placement in our new house and then carried them to the garage staging area. She is a tireless worker and at the same time was cognizant and supportive of when I had tired out in the process. It was the best and actually cost effective money we could have spent. Her style and support and expertise would be an asset to anyone who chooses to utilize her services for either a large or even small organization project.”
“Julie was very professional and friendly. She kept me on task all the while she kept herself busy assisting me with what needed to be done. I highly recommend her.”
