BTAB helps professional women and working moms get control of their digital clutter through expert organization, strategic systems, and time management so they get their time back.  

Don’t just take my word for it!

BTAB supports busy career women in Alberta with digital organization and personal task management.

These are their stories.

Shayla calls me out when my work-life balance begins to slide.

I had made a change in my career that resulted in less time to organize my personal life, and simultaneously increased the amount of digital communication and scheduling demands expected of me. I was feeling overwhelmed each time I looked at my inbox - and by the number of small tasks that were not getting accomplished. 

A co-worker recommended Shayla and I decided to make the investment. My experience working with Shayla has been transformative. She makes my life easier by providing solutions to organizational issues that I was not able to think of myself. I can finally find important emails that have been lost for many years. 

The current organization of my email inbox is pristine thanks to Shayla, and she provides me with helpful strategies for keeping my email organized that are easy to manage. She is on top of important reminders and makes sure I schedule time for self-care - and she calls me out when my work-life balance begins to slide which is so important because there really isn’t anyone else to keep me accountable.

Shayla shared the tools I need to move forward in my digital organizing journey.

II was the lucky winner of a BTAB Dream Day from a gala fundraiser benefiting Queen Elizabeth Elementary School. Previous school years were disorganized leaving me flustered, and I really wanted to set up for a better school year in 2023-2024. That’s where Shayla came to the rescue!

She came to my home at the end of August and we spent the day organizing and color coding my digital calendar, as well as scheduling my responsibilities and appointments over the next four months. Shayla shared incredible tips, advice and ideas about particular tasks I should be blocking out in my calendar so that they actually get accomplished. She even had me booking self-care appointments (massage and nails) and had me enter them in my calendar so that I would have ME time. 

My experience with Shayla was lovely and productive. After my BTAB Dream Day I felt secure knowing that I haven’t forgotten anything and that all my priorities and responsibilities will be accomplished. I can finally stop thinking about everything that needs to get done, and the best part is I no longer have to guess what my days are going to look like. 

Shayla shared the tools I need to manage my calendar moving forward in a productive and intentional way. I believe it is always worth the investment to bring in an expert and learn from them. Having Shayla’s professional support and expertise created much more calmness in my life. A BTAB Dream Day would make a wonderful gift to yourself or someone significant in your life.

Working with Shayla has empowered me in countless aspects of my life!

I started working with Shayla because of some career goals requiring next level organization for application. I needed support with email organization, plus I needed to digitize important paper documents and majorly declutter my office workspace. I also was looking for someone to hold me accountable and encourage me as things were chaotic and I felt overwhelmed. 

Shayla’s impeccable organizational skills, accountability coaching skills, professional confidentiality and respect, combined with her approachability, warmth, sense of humour and responsiveness enabled me to accomplish all of my goals in our sessions together. I learned so many organizational skills, plus have ongoing systems in place to continue managing the multiple demands of work and family life. 

I accomplished so much while working with Shayla and she made me feel supported unconditionally. It is invaluable for professional women to have support for conquering our chaos, and Shayla is the perfect professional to support you! Working with Shayla has empowered me in countless aspects of my life.

Shayla took time to review my goals and then delivered her professional service in a timely fashion. 

I was the lucky winner of a BTAB Dream Day from a silent auction fundraiser benefiting the Love for Lewiston Foundation. I bid on the BTAB Dream Day prize because my email inbox was out of control and I needed a second set of eyes to help me purge, unsubscribe, and keep only what is important. 

Working with Shayla was seamless. She is an excellent communicator, and she is very clear on what will get achieved and how the project will all come together. Shayla took the time to review my goals and then delivered her professional services in a timely fashion. I knew what to expect from start to finish, and it was comforting knowing that I could connect with her in between the kick-off call and wrap-up call with any questions or concerns.

My newly organized email inbox saves me time, and now I have a customized filing system that I can use and build upon for years to come. Working with Shayla is an investment that I believe all professional women and working moms need because she is transparent with organizational systems and strategies so that you have access to all the tools that actually work.

  • Shayla is an organizational master.

Shayla helps me stay on top of all the tasks, from errands, to administrative support and keeping my digital clutter under control. Shayla is an organizational master and helps make sure that I'm on top of all my tasks and frees up my time to focus on my priorities - my businesses and my family."

  • Thank you Shayla - for creating special family memories of a great week in Hawaii!

    “I am very grateful to Shayla, not just for organizing my life, but for the major improvements in the wellbeing of my family! Shayla took away the cognitive workload of work, household management and life in general. This allowed me to feel that I had the bandwidth to book and go on my first trip solo with my two kids as I wasn't worried about my usual endless "to do list".

    Thank you Shayla - for creating special family memories of a great week in Hawaii!"

  • Having Shayla help me coordinate my chaotic brain was critical, not only for my professional life, but my mental well-being.

    "I was overwhelmed, not sure where to begin or if I would ever get on top of the pile of stress I created for myself. Having Shayla help me coordinate my chaotic brain was critical, not only for my professional life, but my mental well-being, as she inspired and encouraged me the whole way through, leaving me empowered to stay on top of things and on track towards my goals."

  • Less clutter and chaos = happy mom and happy kids!

    "As a single mom and busy professional, Shayla has dramatically improved my home and work life after working with her for less than a month. Life changing! Less clutter and chaos = happy mom and happy kids!

    I don't know how I ever lived without Shayla's support and expertise. She is extremely good at what she does, she cares about her clients, and she is an absolute pleasure to work with. 5 stars!"

    Dr. Kara Nerenberg, MD, MSc, FRCPC

  • Shayla was focused, prompt and diligent and gave me excellent ideas going forward.

    “Shayla organized my email system, a task I have been avoiding for years. She was focused, prompt, diligent and gave me excellent ideas going forward! I would highly recommend her.”

    Elizabeth Haynes, Speech-Language Pathologist and Published Author

  • My business started to truly thrive the very next week!

    “I was thinking that I needed a better app to be more productive. But Shayla's approach is so much more - it's HOLISTIC. Practical with a touch of counseling. She began by delving into the real reasons why I was not building my business faster. She got me scheduling time off (massage!), planning playtime with my children (the guilt of not giving them enough quality time had impeded my concentration); drinking more water (Goodbye sleepiness), freeing up more time for my business (hiring a house cleaner, volunteering a little less); showed me the zen of a de-cluttered email account.”

    Sarah Edgar Kelly, Founder of POPSY Inc.

  • She has helped bring greater balance to my life.

    "As a busy female entrepreneur & mom of two littles, running a multinational business with over 74 staff while also managing my household is overwhelming to say the least. Shayla has been instrumental in clearing out my backlog of tasks, managing my numerous inboxes, organizing my digital filing system and helping plan large scale events of 250+ people. She has helped bring greater balance to my life so that I can focus my time and attention on what's most important: spending quality time with my family and focusing on strategic decisions in my business. Thank you Shayla!"
