I'm Joy! I chose this line of work because I saw a real need to declutter both homes and minds. Marcia and I have worked together for over 10 years and this business quickly became more than just numbers on a spreadsheet. We see how we can impact our clients and how we can help them achieve their goals. My background in behavioral science has helped me fully understand our clients and where they are coming from. I am passionate about meeting you where you are and getting you to where you want to be.

Our Story
The New Nest began with two friends who shared a passion for lightening life's burdens and renewing spaces with purpose and care. Marcia, a professional organizer, and Joy, a behavioral science specialist, noticed that life transitions—whether a move, downsizing, or experiencing loss—often left people overwhelmed. Together, they created The New Nest as more than a service; it became a mission to provide expert-guided transformation rooted in trust, dignity, and hope.
Over the years, they have helped countless clients reclaim their spaces and their lives through respectful, personalized support that addresses both the practical and emotional layers of changeand true compassion. Expanding this mission, The New Nest now offers retreats that blend reflection, wellness, and community. These experiences extend the same care and clarity brought into homes, providing life-enriching moments that refresh the spirit and strengthen connections with self and others.
