About Angela Esnouf
Hello! I’m Angela Esnouf, from Creating Order from Chaos and The Professional Organiser’s Edge. I know that getting organised has the power to transform lives. I’ve been helping clients create order from chaos since 2005. I’ve seen lives and homes transformed and I still get a thrill from helping people and making a living doing what I love. Now, as the founder and lead educator of The Professional Organiser’s Edge, I get to help other people experience that same thrill.
As a veteran of the organising industry in Australia, I train, mentor and support up-and-coming professional organisers. It’s a joy to see my colleagues, new and experienced, succeed with integrity and excellence.
If you want to become a professional organiser, I provide a range of training and mentoring options. There’s The Professional Organiser’s Edge membership program, and two online training courses.
I’m a strong believer in professional development. It keeps me up to date with best practice and new developments in the industry.
