Living Inspired Every Day

KonMari Platinum Consultant Nancy Eaton with a super organized fridge

Inspired Living by Nancy Eaton’s mission is to clear out the clutter so that you can create the life you love and create a home that brings you joy. In the newly found space in your home and in your mind, opportunities open up to entertain and create relationships and community.

Depending on your availability and desires, Nancy uses different approaches to accomplish Inspired Living. One of them is founded on the KonMari Method®, for which Nancy is a KonMari Certified Master Consultant, designed and developed by Marie Kondo, author of The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up. This is a category method centered on choosing what you love and discarding those things that no longer spark joy.

Nancy Eaton’s drive to create Inspired Spaces is rooted in her personal experience of how an organized home provides room for extraordinary things to happen. Her artistic, organized and thoughtful approach has provided coaching for people through life’s transitions, people looking to elevate their experience and people looking to express themselves in their homes to build new connections for friendship, love and business.

I am currently experiencing inspired living. As I find my way around, it’s easy to figure out where things are now. The more I wander about, the more I marvel at what this is providing in quality of life, including the positive impact on my marriage.

Ali Carter

Professional Organizer
Project Manager & Designer

Ali Carter has diverse career experience across various industries. From residential, commercial, event design/build to luxury fashion to tech and brand management, the common thread is her appreciation of aesthetics and order. She believes in the combination of beauty and efficiency in every aspect of our lives as a way to bring peace to the chaos of the modern world. 

After living in New York City and working as a project manager and interior designer for a boutique architecture firm, she returned to her roots in California to be closer to her family. Residing in Newport Beach with her two German Shepherd rescues and over a hundred plant babies, she sees her passion in organizing as therapy for the home and for the mind. In her free time, Ali writes poetry and paints abstract art.

Stephanie Gerken

Professional Organizer
Certified KonMari Consultant

Stephanie Gerken is a mom of three, wife, and a full-time KonMari® Certified Professional Organizer. Prior to becoming a Professional Organizer, Stephanie spent 10 years working in Washington, DC on Capitol Hill and the White House before moving to Southern California.

To say her life is busy would be an understatement. In 2015 Stephanie read Marie Kondo’s book, The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up and had an “aha” moment. The KonMari Method® was the answer. It taught her why she could never keep her life organized. She was constantly organizing the kitchen, closets, and the children’s rooms while never addressing the core problem - she and her family had too much stuff! Three years later, Stephanie and her husband, David, moved their family to Newport Beach. She realized organizing was more than a hobby. In 2019 she completed the KonMari® Certification Course and became a full time Organizing Consultant. She wants to share her love of tidying with others and help create a living space and life that’s organized, in a maintainable way. The ultimate aim is to create space for people to live a more purposeful life—and maintain their sanity. Especially moms!
