Accountability Calls

An accountability call is a simple, supportive way to help you stay on track with your decluttering or household management goals. It’s a scheduled check-in, usually an hour or less, where you share what you plan to work on and then follow up to say what you accomplished. Knowing someone else is expecting an update can make a big difference in staying motivated and focused. It turns your intentions into action by adding a layer of commitment and encouragement. No pressure, no judgment, just a helpful nudge and someone to cheer you on as you make progress. Whether you're sorting papers, cleaning out a wardrobe, or tackling a bigger project, accountability calls provide structure, support, and that extra push to keep going. You don’t have to do it all alone and you might be surprised how much more you can get done when someone’s in your corner.

How does it work?

  • Initial chat to identify the areas where you need structure or support
  • Schedule a call or Zoom session at a convenient time
  • Establish your barriers and goals
  •  Figure out the first step and build from there, session by session
  • Each session, we’ll talk through what’s achievable in the coming week and map out a plan together
  • We adapt — sometimes combined with body doubling or virtual organising to help you focus and follow through
  • Weekly calls work best for most people

SOME COMMON QUESTIONS about ACCOUNTABILITY CALLS

What types of things do people do in accountability sessions?

Some of our past sessions have included 

  • Co-writing letters to landlords
  • Creating time-tracking tables to make tasks feel more manageable
  • Talking through packing lists for upcoming trips
  • Giving fresh feedback on design portfolios
  • Exploring productivity tools like to keep everything on track
  • Preparing a CV and practising interview techniques
  • Determining a plan for a bedroom declutter
  • Planing all the components of a housemove

How long and how often are the sessions?

The minimum session time is 15 minutes, but most sessions are around 30 minutes and typically happen every week or two.

How is an accountability call different to a body doubling or virtual organising session?

While both accountability calls and body doubling sessions are designed to help you stay focused and get things done, they work in slightly different ways.

Accountability Call: This is a quick check-in—either before, after, or both—where you say what you’re planning to do (like “I’ll declutter my wardrobe this weekend”) and then report back with what you accomplished. The focus is on committing to a task and having someone to be accountable to.

Body Doubling Session: This is when you work alongside someone in real time, usually over Zoom. You both stay on the call, working quietly on your own tasks. It’s like having a silent partner nearby, which can make it easier to stay on track.

Both offer great support, just in slightly different ways.
