Working with Simple Fly Life started a cascade of positive changes in our household. It started with the organization and decluttering of the pantry. From there, I worked alone to continue the progress in the kitchen and reorganized my cabinets and redecorated. I purged so much junk! Then, we moved on to our bedroom and the garage. Now, we are even eating better! The helpful boost we received from SFL has been invaluable. Professional, relatable, non-judgmental, practical…the list goes on and on. I can’t sing the praises enough! One small easy step in asking for help has been a domino effect. Thank you Amity!
Amity helped me wonderfully whenever I "hit the wall" in my decluttering/downsizing. If you feel overwhelmed like I did, give her a call!
I would like to say I have had the pleasure of reading Amity’s book on minimalism. It has changed my life forever. I didn’t realize what a packrat/hoarder I was until I read her book. Since reading her book I have done a major clean house renovation. I have decluttered my house and my wallet. Since I quit buying all those things I didn’t need I had enough money to pay off all my credit cards, I have an emergency fund for 6 months and I no longer live check-to-check. Once I realized how to be happy living as a minimalist, I now have a very clear picture of what’s important in life. I am not materialistic. I’m currently saving for retirement and plan on retiring early. Thank you, Amity, for opening my eyes! I could never repay you for that special gift you have given me that will last a lifetime.
We had a contract on our house in two days! Thanks for all your guidance as I feel like it certainly contributed to the house selling so quickly!
Knowing first hand the expertise, knowledge, productivity and sheer joy of knowing and working with Ms. Farr, it is my pleasure to recommend her and her “simplify life” creation to anyone in need of grounding in the areas of homemaking, financial, and/or personal intervention. Amity’s heart, mind, and soul are wrapped up in this wonderful entrepreneurial business of helping people feel better about themselves, their homes, and lives. She takes on problems and brings about excellence! She listens, not only with her astute and creative intellect, but with her heart, producing compassion and incredible results for her clients. She’s a winner, a Godly woman who is out and about doing His will, resulting in happiness for all concerned. Turn your home, your problems of any kind over to this woman and know you’ll be so happy you did!
Amity Farr took on the massive project of organizing and rearranging the woodworking shop at Eden Village. This is a large building, approximately 40x40, that had unintentionally become the catch-all space for everything. There were items covering every square inch of floor with no rhyme or reason to any of it. Amity came and in a remarkably short period of time had everything completely cleared off the floor, on shelves around the parameter of the room and in a proper place. She worked pure magic on the entire area! Now the space is cleared and ready to be used as a real woodworking shop because it is no longer a messy storage catch-all room. Amity is amazing! She is a lovely person, pleasant to work with, who is extremely efficient with the gift of turning chaos into order. We at Eden Village are so thankful for her wonderful skills and we highly recommend her services.
Amity shared the philosophy of minimalism and ways it can save time and money and reduce stress. Many people asked questions and then stuck around after the presentation ended to talk to Amity and share ideas with each other. Several told me that they enjoyed the program. I, too, left inspired to minimize!
I had such high anxiety about decluttering 8000 square feet! I didn’t know where to begin. I tried everything to avoid the necessary! I needed help!
After reaching out to a real estate agent friend of mine, I asked her if she had anyone she knew that could help with organization and/or decluttering. Then came my God-send, Amity Farr, with Simple Fly Life! Not only did she help me to find a system for my madness, but also made it fun and alleviated a ton of stress. I would highly recommend her, and I’m so grateful our paths crossed!
There I was, once again staring defeatedly at my stack of papers. I’ve never had a green thumb, but I can grow a paper pile! I reached out to Amity and she asked me how I felt when I looked at my stack. I had to think about that, but realized I felt overwhelmed and timid. I believed I would always be incapable of organizing/simplifying my files. Avoidance had the upper hand.
Amity helped me to approach the files with a 15 minute time limit. Now, with “one bite at a time” and accountability daily, I have begun to enjoy the freedom of having the upper hand! It is filtering into more and more aspects of my life for the good!
Amity is a Master Encourager and teaches in a way that is understandable and distinctly personal. She took the time to know me and found a way to help me break free! I highly recommend her and her book, Simple Fly Life: The Manual!
I start working from home today! I've brought home a boatload of stuff which will need organized. I am so grateful for your help in getting as much room cleared as there is so far, to help accommodate this influx. Also, for the boost in confidence that I can get this jumble sorted through and organized if I just keep plowing into it! Thank you so much!
When minimizing began to take shape in my house, I felt myself being drawn, over and over, to go back to look at a closet, a cabinet, or a room that had just been transformed into something that "finally made good sense." Organized storage or placement of belongings was ENCOURAGING to look at (instead of something to which I DREADED even having to open the door). Soon, wanting to simplify my spaces (and life), by following the simple steps necessary, started to really grow on me once I settled into that mindset. A happy side effect is, the gradual change from shopping/shopping/shopping to saving/saving/saving! Why shop and buy more. when there's such peace of mind in not having to live with all "THAT STUFF!" Now, I look forward to putting the amount saved (by staying away from favorite retail options each month), into an accumulation in my favorite bank or in my favorite investment option, instead of having the items bought becoming an accumulation in my spaces -- hanging on my walls, cluttering my surfaces, and hidden in the trunk of my car!
I have known Amity Farr as a friend for a few years, and here recently, I was able to experience the pleasure of hiring her as my decluttering coach. We worked on two specific areas of my house: the main desk area in our kitchen and the corners and drawers of our master bedroom. We tackled each area on a separate day during Amity’s 8-noon time slot, and I was very pleased with the end result!My experience with Amity was excellent! She was a great encourager throughout the process, even making it fun at times, which is saying something when decluttering is the task at hand! Amity was also wonderful at equipping me with ideas on how to group and move things out of the house, staging items to go to their appropriate destinations, and even making calls for me to various businesses where some items needed to be destroyed, donated, or sold. I love how Amity gently guided the process and kept me on track. Our time and money was well spent with Amity, and I would highly recommend her services to anyone wanting to experience the peace and joy from seeing less clutter around their home.urs could be here!
I relocated on short notice and had to quickly declutter, and in the process, sort through multiple boxes. Amity assisted me with the downsizing and helped me organize items into throwaways, donations, and what to take with me. Amity was highly efficient and had the necessary skills to help me when I was so pressed for time.
Amity kept her calm manner and was never overbearing in her approach. I never felt I was pressured by her to get rid of my possessions. She had helpful tips for organizing and downsizing for me during our days together. Amity made the whole moving process much easier.
Amity’s main goal in this business is to help others while simplifying their lives (which is especially needed in these very complex times). Amity was kind throughout the process and in two four-hour sessions we were able to sort through and organize my house for the move. I will be forever grateful! I would highly recommend Amity who does excellent and efficient work. She is empathetic and encouraging along the way!
