Who I am…
I am a West Coast turned small-town, Midwest mom. I live with my husband and have 3 young adult daughters. I am also dog mom to our 2 pups, Ollie and Gracie. I am dedicated to keeping my life as simple as possible and to helping others do the same.
I have a lot of energy and love to see a space go from a cluttered mess to organized, functional, and supportive. I started my business in 2013. My clients have taught me so much over the years. I know what works and what pitfalls to help them avoid. I have also come to realize that many of my clients share the same struggles, so they are less alone in what they are facing than they realize.
With a B.A. degree in Psychology, and additional coaching education, psychology and self-improvement are both passions of mine. I believe in a holistic view of organizing. Clearing our minds of the clutter and chaos in our lives is just as important as clearing our physical clutter.
Back when I first started my professional organizing journey, I had what I thought of as a dirty little secret. I have ADHD (which explains all my energy), and I knew that those with ADHD can really struggle with staying organized. I had a case of imposter syndrome and mostly kept the fact that I had ADHD to myself. That is, until I learned that there are other successful professional organizers out there who have also learned to compensate for their ADHD the same way that I have.
As it turns out, my need for order and simplicity stems from having ADHD; it’s just the way my unique brain works. So my gifts and my challenges are all tied together to create who I am. I am able to relate to and help others with ADHD as a result of my own coping methods that I have developed for myself. Today, I am able to fully embrace my ADHD and help others do the same.

client feedback
It is my absolute pleasure to recommend Laura Coufal from The simple Daisy. I am a busy, working mom and organization is not easy for me. She came into my home and diligently worked to help get my entire home organized in a way that works for my family and me. She continues to come in monthly for upkeep and I look forward to her arrival every time. She is extremely knowledgeable and professional–so much so, that I entrusted her to help one of my dear friends move into her new home and continue to recommend her. Laura always does a phenomenal job. She has, without a doubt, improved the quality of my life.
When I hired Laura, I didn’t have huge expectations. I just needed help sorting through 26 years of saved stuff so that we can move out of town. Three Salvation Army truck donations later, I can see the walls and floor of my storage room again. Laura taught me how to let things go, as well as how to organize the saved stuff on shelves. Laura works very fast so she doesn’t waste her time with you. She’s very professional and knowledgeable. She’s also an extremely nice person who I look forward to working with every week. The daunting task that I procrastinated about for years turned out to actually be fun with Laura.
I recently hired Laura to help my mom downsize for her move into an assisted living facility. Going from a spacious 2-bedroom apartment to a very small one-bedroom apartment required some letting go and Laura was right there every step of the way helping mom make those tough choices. She is very punctual, friendly, & compassionate. She really made mom’s transition as smooth and painless as possible. I highly recommend Laura!
