Carolyn Caldwell, Certified Professional Organizer, Productivity & Business Coach
My journey as a certified professional organizer and business coach started like so many others—with too much stuff. When I left my corporate role in health care, I faced the chaos of everyday life with young children. Tackling head-on I started to declutter the kids’ clothes, sort (my) papers, and simplify my own life. That experience sparked a passion that has guided me ever since. For over two decades, I’ve helped clients clear clutter, regain focus, and create calm—and I still work every day to simplify my own life.
I specialize in working with Chronic Disorganization. As an ICD Master Trainer, CPO-CD®, Certified Professional Organizer (CPO®), and Certified Productivity Coach, I help people—especially those managing ADHD or chronic disorganization—turn overwhelm into clarity, develop actionable strategies, and take consistent steps toward their goals.
It’s a challenge to balance a busy family life with a thriving business. Like you, I have lots of interests. And I like to be outdoors. In winter, I coach alpine skiing as a CSIA/ACA–certified coach. During the summer you will find me in, on or around water and sailboats. I understand firsthand how to manage multiple roles while staying focused and productive.
Business Coach
With two decades experience as a solopreneur, I’ve made lots of mistakes. Now I realize how many could have been avoided. My focus as a business coach is to help you avoid the mistakes I made. I work with individuals and solopreneurs to gain clarity, focus, and momentum. Using my proprietary Mindfully, I AM Evolving method, we identify priorities, set strategies, and build habits and mindset for lasting results.
Author & Speaker
I love teaching, writing and sharing what I’ve learned so others can be successful. I’ve spoken on productivity, organizing, branding, marketing and ethics at conferences, workshops, and community events.

In 2015 I was honoured to be the recipient of Professional Organizers in Canada‘s (POC) prestigious Harold Taylor Award. I was humbled to be recognized by my peers as a finalist for the Ambassador Award. I have had the honour of serving on the ICD Board of Directors as President and the POC Board as Director of Chapters and Vice President and am also a Gold Leaf Member of POC.
