Hello Friends
My name is Lillian Chandley. You can call me Lili. I am an organizational consultant and coach specializing in chronic disorganization and neurodiversity. I have operated in Northern Metro Atlanta since 2017 and formed General Life Maintenance (GLM) in January 2024.​
​
I am an active member of both the National Association of Productivity & Organizing Professionals and the Institute for Challenging Disorganization. I am currently pursuing NAPO and ICD certifications, as well as Coach Approach, an International Coaching Federation-endorsed program.
My Story
I know firsthand how difficult the juggling act of maintaining a modern life can be. The constant balancing of possessions, space, time, and attention—both in real life and virtually—can easily become overwhelming. And for those of us who are neurodivergent, these challenges can multiply. I’ve experienced this personally through my journey with ADHD, OCD, and recovery from a traumatic brain injury (TBI).
​
But these experiences aren’t just obstacles to overcome — they’ve shaped me into someone uniquely positioned to create individualized systems that help others, particularly those who are neurodiverse, manage life’s complexities.
Growing Up In a
Hoarded Home
My journey began in a home where clutter wasn’t just an inconvenience, but a defining feature of daily life. Growing up in a hoarded environment taught me a lot about the emotional toll that disorganization and chaos can take on the family — both — as a whole and for every member. It showed me how physical clutter can quickly translate into mental clutter, adversely affecting your sense of peace, control, and overall well-being.
This experience is at the heart of why I’m so passionate about helping others reclaim their spaces—and their lives—from chaos.
Navigating Neurodiversity:
ADHD, OCD, & TBI
Living with ADHD and OCD has shaped the way I view the world and my approach to organization. Having ADHD means my brain craves stimulation, and traditional systems often feel rigid or overwhelming. OCD, on the other hand, pushes me to seek control, but in ways that can sometimes feel debilitating. Recovering from a TBI has added yet another layer of complexity, forcing me to relearn how to manage daily life in a way that honors my brain's unique needs.
Through these challenges, I’ve learned how to create flexible, adaptable systems that consistently work for neurodiverse individuals. One-size-fits-all approaches often fail people like us. We need systems that are responsive, practical, and designed to fit how our minds operate—helping us stay organized without feeling restricted or overwhelmed.
Building Community &
Destigmatizing Neurodiversity
My focus goes beyond simply organizing spaces — I want to foster a community that celebrates neurodiversity and challenges the stigma around it. Too often, neurodiverse individuals feel misunderstood or incapable of managing life in the ways they feel they "should." I want to change that narrative.
By sharing my story, I aim to show that neurodiversity isn’t always a limitation — it can be a powerful strength. My unique perspective allows me to design organizational systems that aren’t just efficient but tailored to each individual’s needs. It’s about finding what truly works for you — embracing your own way of thinking, processing, and living.
​
Whether you're neurodiverse or not, I know how easy it is for daily tasks to slip through the cracks, creating clutter and chaos in your home, head, and heart. But with the right approach, you can carve out a sanctuary of calm from an otherwise chaotic world and feel more empowered in your life by taking charge of what is within your control — your space. Together, we can build an environment where you feel supported, understood, and in control.
