Meet the Member – Karen Carson, The Ruby Reset (Home Organisation)
Name, business name
Karen Carson, The Ruby Reset (Home Organisation)
Tell us about your businesses, the inspiration behind it and when you launched it?
I help women reclaim calm, functional spaces in their homes. From a quick 4-hour reset to full home transformations.
I’ve always been the organiser in my circle, planning trips, creating finance planners, or sharing packing lists! The seed for my business was planted during lockdown when I became slightly obsessed with The Home Edit on Netflix, and every weekly shop included a new storage solution.
Before, I worked as an Operations Manager in a law firm, but the long hours and culture pushed me to rethink what I wanted. Things aligned when my sister sent me a link to a Professional Organiser course run by Dilly Carter from BBC’s Sort Your Life Out. I completed it last year and launched The Ruby Reset in January. I’ve never been happier.
Best piece of advice you were given at the start of your business journey?
Be unapologetically you
What has been your biggest lesson/ challenge faced so far and how did you overcome it?
Social media. It’s a minefield! I’m still navigating it, but making progress daily and a lot of that is thanks to this group 😊
What is your number 1 business tip for success?
I’m a big believer in James Clear’s 1% better every day principal, that consistent, small daily improvements can lead to long-term growth
What are the big business goals for the next year?
To continue growing my business and helping normalise asking for support at home. We don’t have to do it all ladies, we are already juggling enough!
How can the GGC Business membership help?
This is my first time working solo, and GGC removes that isolation instantly. It’s a support network full of cheerleaders and people to learn from. I hope I can give back just as much, if not more.
What’s the dream?
To build a thriving business which supports my family whilst transforming the homes and lives of many along the way! I love seeing my client’s reactions and hearing about the lasting impacts of my work.
Fave mantra to get you buzzed up for business!
Live smarter, not harder
Shout out to another local business you admire!
There are so many. I would say The Rebel Wax Club – Rohese has built up a fabulous waxing business around body positivity. She is an absolute diamond of a human and a fabulous at what she does!
