Speakers & Sessions

Shannon Reilly — The Compassionate Business: Sustainable Growth for Organizers Supporting Vulnerable Clients
How professional organizers can build a sustainable business while ethically and effectively supporting clients navigating trauma, hoarding behaviors, or neurodivergence. Through case studies and a trauma-informed lens, attendees gain tools to re-align their services, pricing, and capacity with their values, and take home a reflective worksheet, a sustainable service audit, and a boundary-setting script library.

Sara Skillen — From Solopreneur to Leaderpreneur: Grounded Growth Beyond Yourself
For organizers ready to hire, expand to a team, or acquire another business: how to shift from working solo to leading, delegating, and managing. Through real-life examples and interactive reflection, attendees learn to lead with clarity, compassion, and confidence — building teams that thrive together in purpose-aligned collaboration.

Jodi Laking — The Exit You Haven’t Planned Yet: Long-Term Sustainability & Exit Strategy for Professional Organizers
Exit planning as a long-term strategy: building a business that is sustainable without you at the centre, and creating a clear, documented plan for transitioning out — whether in five years or triggered by something unexpected. Covers the full spectrum of exit scenarios and draws on business continuity frameworks and Canadian estate planning principles.
