What people are saying…

  • “Yoga instructor and Creating Space owner Jackie Smith is taking the practice of yoga off the mat and into people’s homes to help them let go of that which no longer serves. Everything is made up of energy and when our physical spaces are being taken up by old items, it can clutter our energy fields and pull us away from what we most want to be focused on in our lives. With Jackie’s signature flair, it is not only refreshing but fun as well to dive into projects that otherwise might feel more arduous. You will be amazed by even three hours with her!

    — Jayne Spear, Shoes Removed Counselling

  • “I just can't say enough good things about this woman! She helped me move, unload/let go of so much stuff, clogging up spaces in my home and shed and garage. I actually lost count of how many carloads she hauled off! It was such a weight off my shoulders and head...the letting go continues long after our sessions ended. Creating Space here is EXACTLY what we did and she was quite the motivation!”

    — Tina Kellogg

  • “I had to move from a large house into a small condo and did not want to put things in storage for fear I would never get it out. I used Creating Space to help me sell the majority of the furniture in my house. Jackie listed my stuff on various sites, coordinated with potential buyers to see the items, and I believe I sold almost everything in the short period of time I had. In addition to being physically difficult, moving and selling my family's things was an emotional journey, so Jackie’s ever, sincerely, cheerful attitude was an enormous boost. She’s diligent, responsive, and will help you make some money in the process (she wisely demanded to be present if there was any negotiation as I was prone to simply give things away). I highly recommend her for any of the services she provides. I plan on using her again in the future!”

  • “Jackie is always such a pleasure to work with! Her style and charm add a wonderful final touch to homes just before I get ready to photograph them in preparation for a real estate sale. She has such a wonderful energy, and it comes through as she stages each room of any home. Her personality is so welcoming, which makes her super fun to work with every time. I love her!”

    — Dawn Havery, Coldwell Banker Realty

  • “Jackie is AMAZING. She’s been helping me declutter and organize for an upcoming listing/move for the past month. She not only motivates you, but she teaches you skills to stay organized. I think I’ll keep finding projects for her just so I can keep her around!”

    - Jillian Lynch

  • “ Jackie is the best. She has helped me with my kitchen and my closet. I hate organizing and cleaning. She made it fun and very effective. No judgement, just getting it done in a way that worked for us. I have nothing to gain here, just a very happy customer.”

    - Theresa Barnes

  • “Jaquelyn Smith has been helping me purge and organize and it’s been amazing! I feel 100 pounds lighter after we work together!”

    - Elisabeth Marcus

  • “Yes!! You changed me! I hear you in my head now!! In a good way! I had major issues with letting stuff go. I would try to do it by myself and end up with more of a mess then when I started! I definitely had emotional issues attached to all my stuff. Jackie absolutely helped me address that and it was fun. I wish I would have hired her years ago! Highly recommend!”

    - Tina Parisi, Studio B. Yoga

  • “Book for the conversation alone! Thanks for the great chat at the shop the other day.”

    - Eric Martinez, Owner, Java Groove

  • “We have used Jackie’s services at Elk Run Assisted Living and she is wonderful! She takes the stress out of challenging situations. Highly recommend!”

    - Lisa Carter, Elk Run Assisted Living

  • “Jackie was worth every penny!!! I say that because it was honestly a little hard for me to pay good money for this service, but it was hands down totally worth it! I had two large storage units that just overwhelmed me the minute I opened them. From the moment she arrived she made me feel good about what we were doing! She took charge (in the best way possible) and pulled everything out, listened to me complain or explain or tell stories about items. Then she laid out a simple plan for us to achieve my goal and we knocked it out the park! She’s a lovely person who is truly there to help individuals “create space”! She meets you where you are emotionally with the process, but also digs in and gets things done. She was absolutely wonderful to work with. You will thank her and yourself for working with her!
