Finding Beauty in the Aftermath: The Story Behind Styled Amidst the Storm

They say life’s greatest lessons often come during the toughest storms. For me, that storm was Hurricane Helene, a force of nature that left an indelible mark on my community in Western North Carolina. Amidst the upheaval, I found an opportunity to rebuild—not just homes, but my own path forward. I was not directly impacted by the storm as I was not in the area at the time but my friends and family were.

Styled Amidst the Storm and Coordinating Chaos itself was born from chaos. What started as an effort to reclaim order in my own life quickly evolved into something much bigger: a passion for transforming spaces into havens of beauty, comfort, and purpose. Coordinating Chaos became my way of bringing harmony to homes, and this blog is an extension of that journey and vision.

Here, I’ll share insights into the art of home staging, organizing, design tips, and stories of resilience. But it’s more than just aesthetics; it’s about finding the beauty within life’s messiness and proving that even amid chaos, something remarkable can take shape.

Thank you for joining me. Together, we’ll celebrate the art of turning storms into safe havens while those. Please remember, people are still rebuilding at the time of this publishing and you can always donate to small businesses in WNC to help support their recovery. You can also donate to Beloved Asheville my favorite non-profit doing amazing work to help bring not just essentials but most recently homes to those in need this winter. 💫
